The Beauty of the Cross
The Passion of Christ in Theology and the Arts from the Catacombs to the Eve of the Renaissance
Seeking to understand the beauty of the cross as it developed in theology and art from the early Christian era through the Middle Ages, the author argues that art and symbolism functioned as an alternative strand of theological expression-sometimes parallel to, sometimes interwoven with, and sometimes in tension with formal theological reflection.
