Religious practice was relying upon a set of cult images and the sacral status of these depictions of divine or supernatural persons became the object of heated debates and provoked iconoclastic reactions.The miraculous intervention of saints or other divine agents, the wondrous realities beyond understanding, or the manifestations of magic attributed to diabolic forces, were contained by a variety of discourses, described and discussed in religion, philosophy, chronicles, literature and fiction, and also in a large number of pictures and material objects. The nine essays in this collection discusses how supernatural phenomena ? especially angels and devils ? found visual manifestation in Latin and Eastern Christianity as well as Judaism in the late medieval, early renaissance period. 410 0$aCEU medievalia ;$v15. 606 $aAngels in art 606 $aDevil in art 606 $aSupernatural in art 606 $aChristian art and symbolism 606 $aJewish art and symbolism 615 0$aAngels in art. 615 0$aDevil in art. 615 0$aSupernatural in art. 615 0$aChristian art and symbolism. 615 0$aJewish art and symbolism. 676 $a704.9/48640902 701 $aJaritz$b Gerhard$f1949-$0152575 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910953227103321 996 $aAngels, devils$94361913 997 $aUNINA
