This volume offers sixteen studies of early modern spiritual iconography and its historical-theological relevance. Special attention is paid to the process of how sacred images provide media-specific contributions to the exegesis of Scripture, in context of their respective interpretative and theological contexts. Starting with Martin Luther’s pictorial hermeneutics during the century of the Reformation, the narrative arc is expanded into the Enlightenment, when Johann August Nahl refined and intensified early modern imagery with his Hindelbanker Grabplatte. In addition, a masterpiece by the Antwerp painter Frans Floris, ecclesiastical furnishings (pulpits, altars, epitaphs, ceiling paintings) from the 16th to the 18th century, and spiritual printmaking are also taken into consideration.
Der Band bietet 16 profunde Studien zur geistlichen Ikonographie der Fruhen Neuzeit und deren historisch-theologischer Relevanz. Besonderes Augenmerk wird hierbei darauf gerichtet, welche medienspezifische Beitrage sakrale Bildwerke zur Exegese der Heiligen Schrift leisten – und dies stets vor dem Hintergrund der jeweiligen auslegungs-, theologie-, predigt- und frommigkeitsgeschichtlichen Kontexte.
