Representing Jerusalem in World Literature and Art - Sacred Space and Sacred History

This volume explores the historical and cultural dimensions of Jerusalem through the lens of world literature and art. Jerusalem inspired creation of various world literary works, spanning different time periods and contributing to various angles of views. This volume emphasizes Jerusalem''s spiritual significance in the world culture, literature, history, and global society. Preservation of this Holy City is not a duty of one, two, three nations-it is a duty of all humanity. The chapters of this book contribute to the significance of the cosmic city as one of the most important destinations of human journey. The ultimate destination of many pilgrims is Jerusalem-the Holy City that unites all faithful and agnostics. Journey to the Holy City is the fulfillment of a sacred dream of believers.
