First published in 1940, this title presents four of the Gifford
Lectures in natural theology given by Edwyn Bevan in 1933: 'An
Inquiry into Idolatry and Image-Worship in Ancient Paganism and
Christianity'. Reference is made throughout all four lectures not
only to the conventional disputes in Western Christianity, but also
to the attitudes of Hebrew, Pagan, Patristic, Muslim and Eastern
thinkers towards the role of symbols and symbolism in worship. In
this way, a subject of perennial fascination and importance is
placed in a broad historical context, and innovative lines of
enquiry are developed with clarity and insight. Holy Images offers
an intriguing and easily accessible resource to students of
theology, comparative religion, religious anthropology and
philosophy.
