Atmospheres of Transformation. Language, Identity

Résumé

The paper explores the role of language in the constitution of religious atmospheres with special emphasis on architectural experience of a multi-national transborder Eastern Orthodox Community based in Edinburgh. Due to its performative and communicative dynamics, language plays an important role in the activities held in a religious place. The performative activation of religious texts through ritual choreographies, reading in different ways, singing and instrumental music is one of the defining spatiotemporal components of sacred architecture. In the examined case, the aurality of the text contributes to the emergence of a shared identity of moving populations having to settle at a new land based on a process of parallel or overlapping transformations.
