Especially in the West, the apostles are omnipresent, in particular on sarcophagi and in Biblical and martyr poetry. They primarily function as witnesses of Christ’s stay on earth, but Peter and Paul are also popular saints of their own. Occasionally, the other apostles come to the fore as individual figures. Direct influence from art on poetry or vice versa appears to be difficult to trace, but principal developments of late antique society are reflected in the representation of the apostles in both media.Supplements to Vigiliae Christianae ; Volume 134.Apostles in artApostles in literatureArt, Early ChristianThemes, motivesChristian poetry, EarlyHistory and criticismElectronic books.Apostles in art.Apostles in literature.Art, Early ChristianThemes, motives.Christian poetry, EarlyHistory and criticism.704.9/486209Dijkstra Ronald1985-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461041703321The apostles in early Christian art and poetry1929897UNINA
