Icons
Parkstone International 2012; US$ 9.95Icon painting has reached its zenith in Ukraine between the 11th and 18th centuries.

Icônes
Parkstone International 2012; US$ 9.95« L'iconographie chrétienne, et surtout la représentation du Christ, se base dans la doctrine de l'Incarnation. Tout comme le théologien s'exprime par la pensée, l'iconographe, à travers son art, exprime la vérité vivante, la révélation appartenant à l'Église dans la forme des traditions. Bien plus qu'aucune autre image sacrée, l'icône du Christ «... more...

In contrast to the... more...
Engraving the Savage
University of Minnesota Press 2008; US$ 75.00In this innovative analysis, Michael Gaudio explains how popular engravings of Native American Indians defined the nature of Western civilization by producing an image of its “savage other.” Going beyond the notion of the “savage” as an intellectual and ideological construct, Gaudio examines how the tools, materials, and techniques... more...

100% Evil
Springer 2005; US$ 14.95"There's evil in the world." George W. Bush And lots of it. The question is, just what does it look like? A politician? An ex-girlfriend? Your landlord? Your boss?
