Aesthetic Piety

Aesthetic Piety: Or The Beauty And Loveliness Of The Christian Religion is a book written by William Bacon in 1861. The book explores the idea that Christianity is not only a religion of truth and morality, but also a religion of beauty and aesthetics. Bacon argues that the beauty of Christianity is evident in its art, architecture, music, and literature, as well as in the lives of its saints and martyrs. He contends that the aesthetic dimension of Christianity is essential to its spiritual and moral power, and that it can inspire people to live more virtuous and meaningful lives. The book is a celebration of the beauty and loveliness of the Christian religion, and a call to appreciate its aesthetic dimension as an integral part of its spiritual message.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
