Apprehending the archangel Michael --Conclusion --Bibliography --IndexThroughout the course of Byzantine history, Christian doctrine taught that angels have a powerful place in cosmology. It also taught that angels were immaterial, bodiless, invisible beings. But if that were the case, how could they be visualized and depicted in icons and other works of art? This book describes the strategies used by Byzantine artists to represent the incorporeal forms of angels and the rationalizations in defense of their representations mustered by theologians in the face of iconoclastic opposition. Glenn Peers demonstrates that these problems of representation provide a unique window on Late Antique thought in general.Transformation of the classical heritage ;32.IconoclasmByzantine EmpireHistoryAngelsBiblical teachingAngels in artAngels in literatureChurch historyMiddle Ages, 600-1500Byzantine EmpireChurch historyaesthetics.ancient world.angels in art.angels in literature.angels.archangel.art.barberini diptych.bible.bodies.byzantine art.byzantium.cherub.cherubim.church doctrine.divinity.early christian theology.early church.embodiment.folk belief.folk religion.greece.hagiography.hellenism.iconoclasm.icons.literature.madonna.magritte.michael.middle ages.religion.religious practices.saints legends.saints lives.saints.sarcophagus.theology.unrepresentable.virgin and child.IconoclasmHistory.AngelsBiblical teaching.Angels in art.Angels in literature.Church history235/.3/088219Peers Glenn256588MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996248207603316Subtle bodies2320198UNISA
