Book Synopsis The Art of the Roman Catacombs by : Gregory S. Athnos
Download or read book The Art of the Roman Catacombs written by Gregory S. Athnos and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every story in catacomb art is a tale of deliverance, a tale of the powerlessness of death and the certainty of the resurrection. Looking back through fifteen hundred years of Christian art, it appears the crucifixion of Jesus holds the highest place. We haven’t looked back far enough. Go back to the first three centuries after Jesus walked among us. Walk the dark corridors of those subterranean burial chambers of the persecuted Christians. There we find a much different theology at work: a theology with resurrection hope and power at the center. If catacomb art were all we had of Christian theology and practice from the first three centuries AD—no Scriptures—we would have no choice but to conclude that the first message of the Christian faith was the Easter gospel.

Book Synopsis Rethinking Early Christian Identity by : Maia Kotrosits
Download or read book Rethinking Early Christian Identity written by Maia Kotrosits and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maia Kotrosits challenges the contemporary notion of “early Christian literature,” showing that a number of texts usually so described—including Hebrews, Acts, the Gospel of John, Colossians, 1 Peter, the letters of Ignatius, the Gospel of Truth, and the Secret Revelation of John—are “not particularly interested” in a distinctive Christian identity. By appealing to trauma studies and diaspora theory and giving careful attention to the dynamics within these texts, she shows that this sample of writings offers complex reckonings with chaotic diasporic conditions and the transgenerational trauma of colonial violence.

Book excerpt: This volume deals with the Christian catacombs of Rome and presents the current state of research and knowledge concerning these extraordinary monuments that provide the most tangible and eloquent testimony of early Christianity. This volume is intended to represent the official publication on the Christian catacombs of Rome, prepared directly by members of the Pontificia Commissione di Archeologia Sacra. Through association with this commission, it has been possible to publish the most recent and up to date graphic and photographic documentation of the excavations and restorations carried out in the last few years in preparation for the Great Jubilee Year of 2000.

Book Synopsis Early Christian Art and Architecture by : Guntram Koch
Download or read book Early Christian Art and Architecture written by Guntram Koch and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early Christian period, especially the time between the third and sixth centuries, is one of the most fascinating in church history. The Christianity which developed into a state church in the Roman empire during the fourth century gave new content to traditional Graeco-Roman art and adapted it to changed needs. Different forms of churches, monasteries and baptisms came into being, as did Christian art in paintings, mosaics and sculptures; biblical manuscripts were illustrated and liturgical furnishings and vessels were given new form. Here for the first time in a single volume is an account of architecture sacred and profane, funerary art in catacombs and tombs and especially sarcophagi, the graphic arts and the various forms of art in miniature. The text is illustrated with numerous line drawings and photographs, including ground plans and elevations of churches, actual and conjectural, and there are full descriptions of the art and architecture discussed against its social and historical background. In addition there are full bibliographies and details of the most important collections of Christian art. This will prove not only an invaluable work for art historians but also a guide for those travelling in the Mediterranean area and an indication of the riches of the first centuries of the church. Guntram Koch is Professor of Christian Archaeology and the History of Byzantine Art in the University of Marburg.
