PB Brill YR 2014 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/768540682 AB This volume of 'Intersections: Interdisciplinary Studies in Early Modern Culture', consists of essays that pose fundamental questions about the relation between verbal and visual hermeneutics, especially as relates to biblical culture. Exegesis, as theologians and historians of art, religion, and literature, have come increasingly to acknowledge, was neither solely textual nor aniconic; on the contrary, following from Scripture itself, which is replete with verbal images and rhetorical figures, exegesis has traditionally utilized visual devices of all kinds. In turn, visual exegesis, since it concerns the most authoritative of texts, supplied a template for the interpretation of other kinds of significant text by means of images. Seen in this light, exegetical images prove crucial to understanding how meaning was constituted visually, not only in the sacred sphere but also in the secular.00 NO Literaturangaben CN a SN 90-04-26200-8 SN 978-90-04-26200-3 K1 Bible : Hermeneutics K1 Bible : Criticism, interpretation, etc K1 Bible : Illustrations K1 Geschichte 1400-1700 K1 Christian art and symbolism : Europe : Medieval, 500-1500 K1 Christian art and symbolism : Europe : Modern period, 1500- K1 Visual communication : Europe : History K1 Theology : Europe : History K1 Hermeneutics : History K1 Christian art and symbolism : History : Europe K1 Visual communication : History : Europe K1 Theology : History : Europe K1 Exegese K1 Bildliche Darstellung K1 Europe : Religious life and customs K1 Europe : Intellectual life K1 Konferenzschrift : 2012 : Atlanta, Ga.
