Isbn: 9780567704085 - staurogram, the: writing a picture of the crucified christ (the reception of jesus in the first three centuries, band 9) (6 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: New. Dieter T. Roth presents an extensive study of the so-called "staurogram," argued to be the earliest visual depiction of the crucifixion of Christ. Roth examines the origins of this depiction in early New Testament manuscripts as a ligature or compendium of two letters in certain abbreviations of the words "cross" (stauros in Greek) or "crucify" (stauroo in Greek) in which the Greek letter rho is superimposed upon the Greek letter tau. In this work, the staurogram, ultimately understood to be a simple yet powerful depiction of Jesus crucified, is analyzed and located within the framework of ancient abbreviations, the nomina sacra, and the developing Christian visual culture in order to offer, for the first time, a wide-ranging presentation of this symbol in early Christianity.
