dc.description.abstractThis thesis sets out to examine changes in Roman domestic spaces related to religious practice from the pagan to Christian period. I argue that in their spatial negotiation of pre-existing pagan spaces, early Christian belief was influenced by these pagan spaces. A long process of reinterpreting domestic space created new spatial codes, to be understood as exclusively Christian. Case studies of Roman domestic architecture reveal that there is a detectable reinvention of space that emphasizes decreased visibility and increased personal-space intimacy in domestic religious performance.en_US
