The essays collected in this volume explore how and by what means, from antiquity to the present day, the notion of 'the right moment' has been defined, visualized, and experienced. The authors approach the subject from a range of disciplines and often work at the intersection of several of them, including the history of art and architecture, philosophy and art theory, classics and comparative literature, the history of religion and theology, and anthropology. In addition to scholarly exposés, the book contains a number of personal musings and artistic reflections on 'the right moment' in various forms and kinds of imagination - visual, literary, and philosophical.
