Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of Christian Symbolism In writing and publishing this little Handbook we have been actuated by a desire to supply, in some slight degree, a want which has been much felt by the students of Christian art. We trust that it will be understood, however, that we have not had any idea of rivalling the many learned works on the subject which have been published both in this country and in France, from which we have received much valued information, and to which we must refer those who wish to go deeply into the study of Christian Symbolism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of Christian Symbols and Stories of the Saints: As Illustrated in Art That some of the miracles attributed to the saints should have been merely fabled, need not startle nor scandalize even the Catholic reader, nor excite prejudice against the great mass which rest on evidence at least as firm as that on which we ao cept the records of profane history; for, to quote again from the above-named eminent authority, it as little derogates from the supernatural gift residing in the Church that miracles should have been fabricated or exaggerated, as it prejudices her holiness that within her pale good men are mixed with bad.

Download or read book An Introduction to Early Christian Symbolism Classic Reprint written by William Palmer and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Christian Symbolism Of the Fourteen Compositions described in the following pages, the first alone occurs as a whole in the "Catacombs" (in the Cemetery of S. Callistus): and it was this which suggested to the Author the idea of putting together other Compositions in a somewhat similar form, like triptychs, with a systematic arrangement of subjects. The Paintings and Glasses of these fourteen Compositions exhibit to the eye the Christianity of the third century, though possibly some one or other of them may belong to the second, and several of them certainly belong to the fourth. Such as belong to the fourth, if later than the accession of Constantine but still contemporary with the tombs at which they occur, are distinguishable by the aureole round the heads of the figures, and sometimes by other signs, such as the presence of the monogram, or the presence or vicinity of dates and names of Consuls, &c.
