SUMMARY
Religion, Art, and Visual Culturegathers together the most current scholarship on art, religion, visual culture, and cultural studies. The book approaches the study of world religions through the human, meaning-making activity of seeing. The essays move between specific visual subjects (painting, landscape gardens, calligraphy, architecture, mass media) and the broader theoretical discourses relevant to religion and the wider humanities today. Topics covered include art and perception; the iconicity of Jesus Christ; the relation of word and image in Islam and divine images in India.Plate, S. Brent is the author of 'Religion, Art, and Visual Culture A Cross-Cultural Reader', published 2002 under ISBN 9780312240295 and ISBN 0312240295.
