Re-Ordering of Liturgical Space

The actual title of the essay was:

“The concept of Christianity is always shaped by the particular concrete form it takes at a period in history. Christianity can become the prisoner of the picture which it has made of itself at a particular time.” (Hans Kung).
Discuss with reference to Christian Architecture and the reordering of liturgical space.

This essay should really be called a summary of Re-Pitching the Tent. The book is excellent, easy to read and interesting. This essay was completed in about 7 hours from start to finish as I had spent far to long to the Death and Christian Burial essay.

My mark for this essay was 62%.
