Description
Key Features
Moshe Barasch's comprehensive analysis spans from antiquity to the eighteenth century, tracing cultural attitudes toward blindness across major historical periods.
The book examines blindness in classical and biblical traditions, including iconic figures like Blind Homer and the healing narratives central to Christian art.
Barasch explores diverse representations of blindness in painting, from punishment and suffering to blindness as a mark of special spiritual insight or musical talent.
The study investigates how Western visual art addressed blindness across the Early Christian world, Middle Ages, and Renaissance, revealing cultural tensions and meanings.
Published by Routledge, this academic work provides critical analysis of blindness as a mental image and philosophical concept in art history and cultural studies.
The final section considers Diderot's revolutionary thinking on blindness, demonstrating the evolution of Enlightenment perspectives on perception and representation.
