Description

Explore the historical complexities of religious symbolism with Holy Images (Routledge Revivals). Originally published in 1940, this work contains four Gifford Lectures delivered by Edwyn Bevan in 1933. This text provides a deep examination of the role of symbols and image-worship within both ancient paganism and Christianity. Rather than focusing solely on Western Christian debates, Bevan expands the scope to include the perspectives of Hebrew, Pagan, Patristic, Muslim, and Eastern thinkers. By placing the discussion of idolatry within a broad historical context, this title offers new ways to look at how different cultures approach the use of images in worship. It is an essential resource for those interested in the history of religion, theology, and the evolution of religious thought across diverse civilizations.
