Hierotopy (from Ancient Greek: ἱερός, sacred + Ancient Greek: τόπος, place, space) is the creation of sacred spaces viewed as a special form of human creativity and also a related academic field where specific examples of such creativity are studied. The concept and the term were developed in 2002 by Russian art-historian and byzantinist Alexei Lidov. Hierotopy accounts for the ways in which a vast array of media (e.g. religious images, ritual, song, incense, light) are used to organize sacred spaces. As an academic field, it spans the disciplines of art history, archeology, cultural anthropology, ethnology and religious studies, but it possesses an object of study and a methodology of its own. It differs from the phenomenology of the sacred (which has been studied by Mircea Eliade, Rudolf

  • Hierotopy (from Ancient Greek: ἱερός, sacred + Ancient Greek: τόπος, place, space) is the creation of sacred spaces viewed as a special form of human creativity and also a related academic field where specific examples of such creativity are studied. The concept and the term were developed in 2002 by Russian art-historian and byzantinist Alexei Lidov. Hierotopy accounts for the ways in which a vast array of media (e.g. religious images, ritual, song, incense, light) are used to organize sacred spaces. As an academic field, it spans the disciplines of art history, archeology, cultural anthropology, ethnology and religious studies, but it possesses an object of study and a methodology of its own. It differs from the phenomenology of the sacred (which has been studied by Mircea Eliade, Rudolf Otto and Pavel Florensky) insofar as it focuses on historical examples of hierotopic projects, that is, projects establishing a medium of communication between the mundane and the sacred. Though related with religious mysticism, hierotopy deals first and foremost with forms of conscious, creative activity. According to the hierotopic approach, icons and other sacred artifacts are viewed not as isolated objects, but as components of larger hierotopic projects. Though such artifacts often play a prominent role in hierotopic studies, it is these projects themselves – including both their conceptual and artistic aspects, as well as the historical developments leading to their formation – that are the primary focus of study. The role played by the creators of sacred spaces is also of chief importance, and could be compared with that of an artist. The creative element at work here resembles the work of contemporary film directors, for both involve the coordinated effort of various artists and specialists in shaping a single, comprehensive vision. As examples of hierotopic projects, one can consider King Solomon's construction of the First Temple, the erection of Hagia Sophia by Emperor Justinian, as well as the work of Abbot Suger in the conception of first Gothic cathedrals. Hierotopic projects are not limited to churches and sanctuaries; in other cases, landscapes, architectural compounds and even cities and countries have become products of hierotopic creativity. The topics of hierotopic study cover a broad span of interests and range, for example, from the role played by light in church architecture to the study of religious ceremonies, feasts and folk customs. The comparison of hierotopic models at work in different cultures is another focus of interest. Six international symposia (2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2014, 2017) have been organized on hierotopic subjects. (en)
  • Иерото́пия (др.-греч. ἱερός — священный и др.-греч. τόπος — место, пространство) — это создание конкретных сакральных пространств, рассматриваемое как особый вид творческой деятельности, а также специальная область историко-культурных исследований, в которой выявляются и анализируются примеры данного творчества. Результатом иеротопического творчества как правило являются церкви и святилища, но могут быть также сакральные ландшафты, архитектурные комплексы, и даже города и страны. Концепция иеротопии и сам термин были предложены Алексеем Лидовым в 2002 году. Иеротопия как раздел гуманитарного знания находится на стыках традиционных дисциплин истории искусства, археологии, культурной антропологии, этнологии, религиоведения, однако не совпадает ни с одной из них и имеет собственный предмет и методологию. Речь идет не об общем изучении сакрального, чему посвящены работы Мирча Элиаде, Рудольфа Отто, Павла Флоренского и других, а об исторически конкретной деятельности людей по созданию среды общения с высшим миром. Иеротопия может включать и мистическую компоненту, но прежде всего это процесс осознанного творчества, формирования сакрального пространства при помощи архитектуры, изображений, обрядов, света, запахов и иных медиа. При помощи понятия иеротопия, предметы сакрального искусства, «пребывающие ныне в состоянии музейной разобщенности, вновь собираются в своем времени и в своем месте» . В рамках иеротопического подхода иконы и другие произведения сакрального искусства рассматриваются не как изолированные предметы, а как компоненты иеротопических проектов в их художественной и концептуальной целостности и временном развитии. Темы иеротопических исследований разнообразны и могут включать столь различные предметы, как роль света в церковной архитектуре, религиозные церемонии и праздники, народные традиции, сопоставление иеротопических моделей разных культур. Иеротопии было посвящено 5 международных симпозиумов. (ru)
