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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51942337741088,"sku":"NEW0521093082","price":72.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/anglo-saxon-crucifixion-iconography-and-the-art-of-the-monastic-revival-cambridge-studies-in-anglo-saxon-england-series-number-1-0521093082","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
