About this ebook

A new translation from the original French manuscripts of Marcel Proust's 1921 "In Memory of the Murdered Churches" (En Memoire De Eglises Assassinees). This edition contains a new Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Proust's life and works and a glossary of philosophic concepts in his body of work. Here Proust mournfully reflects upon the disappearance of sacred spaces and explores themes of loss, memory, and the passage of time. With evocative descriptions and personal reflections, he captures the significance of these lost architectural and spiritual landmarks, shedding light on the fragility of human creations and the collective memory. The work addresses how the absence of churches affects our understanding of history and our connection with the past, making it a poignant exploration of cultural heritage.
