Abstract

The article discusses the construction and burning of a pagan temple by artist David Best in Londonderry (Derr), Northern Ireland, highlighting the work's goal of uniting the people of Londonderry amidst a history of Catholic-Protestant conflict in the area. Topics addressed include the community's role in building the temple, initial doubts as to whether the temple would be well-received, and the attendance of Catholics and Protestants at the burning of the temple.
