The drawings and paintings of the crucifixion are discussed in relation to the literature, theology, liturgy and devotional practices of the late Anglo-Saxon period in order to reveal the richness and subtlety of religious belief at this time. Late Anglo-Saxon religious art is shown to have played a central role in the monastic life; it called to mind the gospel events and set out their theological significance; it demonstrated the truth of the gospel message; it moved men's hearts, allowing them to experience the presence of Christ and to respond as though they had actually been present at His death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Catherine Raw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521093082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521093088\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.73d","brand":"Barbara Catherine Raw","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46617850315007,"sku":"9780521093088","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_35cb23e5-aa96-483a-8b6c-7ddcfc6e0cbf.jpg?v=1740068499","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/anglo-saxon-crucifixion-iconography-and-the-barbara-catherine-raw-9780521093088","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
