To analyze these features, the author uses a recent metaphorical term ‘mnemotop’. ‘Mnemotop’ stresses a sacral spatial constituent of a monument of art, so it proves alternative to the notion of ‘crypt’. Th e point is ‘mnemotop’ is open and needs ‘reading’, while ‘crypt’ is not the image of just oblivion, but rather of unwillingness to cognize. All these terms are metaphors generated by certain architectural experience. Th us, each analytical discourse on art is a system of ‘toposes’, a special ‘topica’ as a system of transition from the reality of art and creation to the related one of cognition and science.

This allows for a better understanding of both his method and the logic that informs his entire canon. Considering the significance of «ruins' for Sedlmayr, it seems appropriate to pay particular attention to his text on the preservation of monuments, «Die demolierte Schönheit…» (1965), created in Salzburg, where Sedlmayr spent the last twenty years of his life.

However, architecture as a bodily presence seems to be a reality that does not need verification. Yet there remains the issue of sacral architecture, which strives for the transcendent. What can be a medium in the experience of theophany? Sacral experience of Gothic architecture is very suitable for such observations. However, as I hope to demonstrate, only one theory seems to have actually approached the understanding of interconnections between the Holy Presence and the experience of it on an architectonic level. Precisely, it is Hans Jantzen’s (1881-1967) programmatic theory of “a diaphanic structure”. Term “diaphaneia” was first introduced by Jantzen in his article “Über den gotischen Kirchenraum” (1927). By that time the word had been used in near-esoteric circles (from Jacob Boehme to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and James Joyce). Jantzen’s seminal article is dedicated to the ...
