Natural Materials of the Holy Land and the Visual Translation of Place, 500-1500
Editat de Renana Bartal, Neta Bodner, Bianca Kuhnelen Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 apr 2017
What makes earth, stones or bottled water transported from holy sites sacred? How do they become pars pro toto, signifying the whole from which they were taken? This book will examine natural media used for translating loca sancta, the processes of their sanctification and how, although inherently abstract, they become charged with meaning. It will address their metamorphosis, natural or induced; how they change the environment to which they are transported; their capacity to translate a static and distant site elsewhere; the effect of their relocation on users/viewers; and how their containers and staging are used to communicate their substance.

Descriere
Since early Christianity, wood, earth, water and stone were taken fromloca sanctato signify them elsewhere. Unlike textual or visual representations, natural materials not only represent the Holy Land; they are part of it. This book examines the processes of their sanctification and how, although inherently abstract, they become charged with meaning.
