Reading Catechisms, Teaching Religion makes two broad arguments.
First, the sixteenth century witnessed a fundamental transformation
in Christians', Catholic and Evangelical, conceptualization of the
nature of knowledge of Christianity and the media through which
that knowledge was articulated and communicated. Christians had
shared a sense that knowledge might come through visions, images,
liturgy; catechisms taught that knowledge of 'Christianity' began
with texts printed on a page. Second, codicil catechisms sought not
simply to dissolve the material distinction between codex and
person, but to teach catechumens to see specific words together as
texts. The pages of catechisms were visual-they confound precisely
that constructed modern bipolarity, word/image, or, conversely,
that modern bipolarity obscures what sixteenth-century catechisms
sought to do.
