The Grotesque in Art and Literature: Theological Reflections

by James Luther Adams

The Grotesque in Art and Literature: Theological Reflections Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

While there has been a growing interest in the use of grotesque imagery in art and literature, very little attention has been given to the religious and theological significance of such imagery. This fascinating book redresses that neglect by exploring the religious meaning of the grotesque and its importance as a subject for theological inquiry.
