Divine images create their own world of theological reflection and
religious practice. Pictorial representations have to reduce
complexity, yet at the same time they create their own complexity.
The present volume examines this phenomenon with papers on
fundamental issues and presentations of material from the Ancient
Orient, Greece and the Hellenic world. Papers on the contact
between Christianity and Islam in the matter of the veneration of
images make clear what compensation strategies are developed when
pictorial representations are subject to theological censure. The
volume contains eighteen contributions from internationally
renowned researchers writing in German and English.
