Description
Summary:Melissa Raphael’s turn from her previous work to her current volume, Judaism and the Visual Image: A Jewish Theology of Art may at first appear to be an abrupt departure, or perhaps a short mental holiday from the intensely difficult material that characterised The Female Face of God in Auschwitz (Routledge, 2003). Nothing could be further from the truth. Judaism and the Visual Image is the perfect continuation of The Female Face of God, building upon its strengths and resolving many of its difficulties.
