Pages: 167 p. Language(s):English, French. Publication Year:2019. Brepols, ISBN: 978-2-503-58259-7. Paperback -- SUMMARY The present volume, which came into being as one of the results of an interdisciplinary project titled Iconic Presence. The Evidence of Images in Religion, addresses the relationship between movement and the iconic presence . Within the frame of the latter notion, the image is understood as a threshold between the tangible world and the imaginary one. To speak about iconic presence thus means to speak about the presence manifested through (and in) images, but also about the meaning of image in the Middle Ages. The volume, divided into three sections, is conceived to bring about precisely this, adding the element of movement into the discussion. The first section dedicated to sites of worship and landscapes as living phenomena shows the presence to be possible through mental images, traces of divine, miraculous events or landscape design. The second focuses on three-dimensional objects and the way they were activated by sight and corporal movement while entering the sacred space. The third deals with human bodies in movement that become images themselves. The volume was published as proceedings of the Walking and the Iconic Presence conference, which was held in November 2017 at the Masaryk University in Brno.
