Description

In line with legend, someone who wandered into the labyrinth in Ancient Crete never came out again. Some labyrinths may have offered patterns for an erotic spring dance. Those at the floors of Medieval cathedrals represent mathematical perfection–and walking their paths used to be a symbolic approach to the divine. From ancient Mediterranean coin patterns to the great French cathedral labyrinths to recent cornfield mazes, labyrinths and mazes have gave the impression in every single place the world, but never have such a lot of been created as in nowadays’s revival, on farms, and in parks, churches, hospitals, and spas across the country. In his charmingly quirky investigation of an image that has inspired countless beautiful patterns and mysterious practices, David Willis McCullough offers an impossible to resist way to enjoy their enduring appeal.
