Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Shrines of Lourdes, Zaragossa, the Holy Stairs at Rome, the Holy House of Loretto and Nazareth, and St. Ann at Jerusalem The following are studies made upon the spots which they describe. I am not insensible to the feeling of "Religio Loci": on the contrary I am particularly susceptible of it. I cannot imagine a person of a cultivated mind not feeling some emotion, when he stood, as I have stood, in the Forum of Rome, on the Parthenon at Athens, amidst the ruins of Carthage, on Mount Olivet overhanging Jerusalem, at the top of the Great Pyramid, or at the foot of the great Statue of Memnon at Thebes. Whatever may be the legends which have entwined themselves round them, there is an actual reality and truth in the physical objects, which present themselves to the eye.
