Incubation Or The Cure Of Disease In Pagan Temples And Christian Churches is a non-fiction book written by Mary Hamilton. The book explores the practice of incubation, a healing ritual that was common in ancient pagan temples and later adapted by Christian churches. The ritual involved sleeping in a sacred space, often accompanied by dreams or visions that were believed to offer healing and guidance. Hamilton examines the history and cultural significance of incubation, tracing its roots in ancient Greece and Rome and its spread throughout the Mediterranean world. She also explores the similarities and differences between pagan and Christian incubation, and the ways in which the practice evolved over time. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including ancient texts, archaeological evidence, and contemporary scholarship, Hamilton provides a comprehensive and engaging account of this fascinating aspect of religious history.This Scarce Volume Includes Major Sections Devoted To Incubation And Pagan Temples, Incubation In Christian Churches During The Middle Ages, And The Practice Of Incubation During Modern Times.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
