Description

Explore the visual history of religious mysteries in early modern Europe with Quid est sacramentum? published by Brill. This academic study examines how sacred mysteries, known in Latin as sacramenta or mysteria, were represented through various media forms. The research focuses on the period between approximately 1500 and 1700, providing deep insight into the visual culture of Italy, France, and the Low Countries. Written by esteemed art historians Walter S. Melion and Elizabeth Pastan, this book analyzes illustrated religious literature to understand how spiritual concepts were communicated to audiences. Melion, the Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Art History at Emory University, brings extensive expertise in Northern art and Jesuit image theory to this investigation. This work is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in art history, religious studies, and the evolution of visual media in early modern Europe.
