Publisher's Synopsis

From the structure of the working day to the imposition of curfews, the hours give a meaning to our days. Since the monastic era, the organisation by hours has become so ubiquitous that it has come almost to seem uncaused, a fact of nature. This work aims to restore its strangeness.
