Book Description
Excerpt from The Crucifix of Baden: And Other Stories, Original, Translated, and Selected When you have long studied those features and contemplated their agony, you involuntarily ask yourself Where did the sculptor find so sufi'ering a face, so living an agony? Whence came his model? For you feel that features once were the flesh of one to whom ordinary grief were as nothing. That look of life, that pain so real, came certainly from a human heart that once beat beneath them, and in them painted its wounds, its tortures. And its agony. They were seen, and not merely created in the artist's brain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
The Carolingian 'Renaissance' of the late eighth and ninth centuries, in what is now France, western Germany and northern Italy, transformed medieval European culture. At the same time it engendered a need to ensure that clergy, monks and laity embraced orthodox Christian doctrine. This book offers a fresh perspective on the period by examining transformations in a major current of thought as revealed through literature and artistic imagery: the doctrine of the Passion and the crucified Christ. The evidence of a range of literary sources is surveyed - liturgical texts, poetry, hagiography, letters, homilies, exegetical and moral tractates - but special attention is given to writings from the discussions and debates concerning artistic images, Adoptionism, predestination and the Eucharist.
