The combination of iconoclasm and Calvinist doctrine have led to a misunderstanding as to the unique ways that English Protestants used religious printed images. Building on recent work in the history of the book and print studies, this book analyzes the widespread body of religious illustration, such as images of God the Father and Christ, in Reformation England, assessing what religious beliefs they communicated and how their use evolved during the period. The result is a unique analysis of how the Reformation in England both destroyed certain aspects of traditional imagery as well as embraced and reformulated others into expressions of its own character and identity.Library of the written word.Handpress world ;19.Reformation and artEnglandChristian literature, EnglishIllustrationsIllustration of booksEnglandIdentification (Religion)Reformation and artChristian literature, EnglishIllustration of booksIdentification (Religion)246.0942/09031Davis David J(David Jonathan)1537465MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786135403321Seeing faith, printing pictures3786777UNINA
