Aesthetic Piety

Aesthetic Piety: Or The Beauty And Loveliness Of The Christian Religion is a book written by William Bacon and published in 1861. The book explores the idea that Christianity is not just a set of beliefs and practices, but also a source of beauty and inspiration. Bacon argues that the aesthetic aspects of Christianity, such as its art, music, and architecture, are essential to understanding and appreciating the religion. He also discusses the role of beauty in religious devotion, and how the experience of beauty can deepen one's faith. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the intersection of religion and aesthetics, and offers a unique perspective on the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
