Vestiarium Christianum is a book that explores the history and evolution of the dress worn by members of the clergy in the Christian Church. Written by Wharton B. Marriott, the book provides a comprehensive look at the origin and gradual development of the vestments worn by priests, bishops, and other members of the clergy during religious services. The book delves into the symbolism and significance of each garment, as well as the changes that occurred over time in response to cultural and religious shifts. With detailed illustrations and in-depth analysis, Vestiarium Christianum is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian liturgy and the role of dress in religious practice.1868. Historical or antiquarian investigation is one thing, theological controversy is another. There is time, and there is place, for both; but not for both the same time and the same place, without disadvantage to the former of the two. Under this conviction the author studiously put aside all reference to the passing controversies of this day, and made it his one object to collect every fact of importance bearing upon the subject immediately before him, to set it before the readers in such a way as shall enable them to form their own estimate of its value, and at the same time to offer, for whatever its worth, the interpretation which he believed to be the true one.
