Talk by Michael Gough
Lecturer in Classical Archaeology in the University of Edinburgh
The origins of Christian art and architecture have been much discussed during the past fifty years, since it became evident that the East had contributed far more than was previously supposed. The speaker gives an account of early Christian building in south-east Turkey, hitherto almost overlooked in this field, but where he considers there are outstanding examples of the earliest fusion of ancient pagan and the new Christian art-forms.
