Icons provide depictions of God or encounters with the divine that
enable reflection and prayer. 'In the Beginning is the Icon'
explores the value of these images for a theology of liberation.
Iconology, art theory, philosophical aesthetics, art history and
anthropology are integrated with rigorous theological reflection to
argue that the creation and observation of pictures can have a
liberating effect on humanity. In presenting art from across the
world, 'In the Beginning is the Icon' reflects the ethnocentricity
of both art and religious studies and offers a new cross-cultural
approach to the theology of art.
