This volume introduces a polyphony of silences from the whole span of Christian history and beyond. Some are holy; some skirt the borders of evil. MacCulloch describes how the Early Church negotiated the competing claims of silence and noise, and how monasticism, a movement imported into Christianity, came to dominate Christian worship and practice.
