This study explores how Jerusalem as a physical space was being associated with monastic spirituality and also, how religious activities of monks living in the Jerusalem area paradoxically came to reinforce imperialistic rule, in the Christian context of the fourth to fifth centuries. As for the aspect of monastic spirituality, we investigate most importantly, a monastic concept of Jerusalem allied with monastic ideas particularly through writings by Jerome, with understanding of changing Christian views of Jerusalem at that time. As for the imperialistic aspects, we illuminate appropriations of holy space and building activities; and also, ownership over the holy land relics, by multi-national ascetics living in the Jerusalem area in light of modern imperialism studies. Consequently, this study reveals that for ascetics who were respectful to Jerusalem, the city was space of elevated souls and a vital symbol expressing the souls’ ceaseless ascent toward the heavenly. At the same time, those monks’ activities are discussed to be evocative of modern colonizers’ ones which had exercised imperial ownership over the foreign land and material.
