Inhaltsangabe

Essays exploring how the methods of art history have been used to address the Christian content of artistic works, from iconography to postwar modernism. ReVisioning: Critical Methods of Seeing Christianity in the History of Art' explores some of underlying methodological assumptions in the field of art history by examining the suitability and success, as well as the incompatibility and failure, of varying art historical methodologies when applied to works of art which distinctly manifest Christian narratives, themes, motifs, and symbols.
