Описание

Symbols of Catholicism delves into the core symbols of Catholicism, encouraging readers to explore the faith with curiosity, reflection, and mutual respect. As part of Assouline’s Symbols of Religion Series, The richly illustrated volume highlights how significant these emblems have served to bridge the gap between the human and the divine.

Written by French prelate of the Catholic Church, Father Robert Le Gall, with atmospheric photography by Laziz Hamani, the title communicates concepts such as unity, protection, and transformation that are often too complex or profound to express with mere words. Elucidating the people and concepts at the heart of the Catholic Church, including saints, biblical figures, the sacraments, sacred objects, vestments, and more, Symbols of Catholicism enables adherents to instantly access complex theological concepts, emotions, and a communal heritage that transcend ordinary language.
