According to a longstanding interpretation, book religions are agents of textuality and logocentrism. This volume inverts the traditional perspective: its focus is on the strong dependency between scripture and aesthetics, holy books and material artworks, sacred texts and ritual performances. The contributions, written by a group of international specialists in Western, Byzantine, Islamic and Jewish Art, are committed to a comparative and transcultural approach. The authors reflect upon the different strategies of »clothing« sacred texts with precious materials and elaborate forms. They show how the pretypographic cultures of the Middle Ages used book ornaments as media for building a close relation between the divine words and their human audience. By exploring how art shapes the religious practice of books, and how the religious use of books shapes the evolution of artistic practices this book contributes to a new understanding of the deep nexus between sacred scripture and art.

IntroductionThis book is a collection of work connected to each other in a course of a year. These follow the evolvial content of what is now moving in our world on a more spiritual, mystical, mathematical, alchemical, geomatrical precision in word, language, and sacred geometry.These pages encompass the Sophiac Intelligencia in a wholeness of language, rhythm, and content. We are moving these in a way of a gathered perception that follows the content of a squared perspective that one can see as a larger, more connected communication of what evolves in a stretch of consciousness that seeks love and compassion.Take time to learn the rhythm and sacred geometry of these words. You must take time for them to move you, because you cannot move them out of their precisional gift of balance. Understanding is not the first point of reference, but instead feeling and clarity.

Revised Edition This is the story of the Sudarium of Oviedo, an ancient bloodstained cloth, believed to have covered the head of Jesus of Nazareth after his crucifixion. The author traces the known history of the linen and presents the up-to-date conclusions of EDICES. The investigative team that has been studying the cloth since 1989, discusses the cultural significance of the crucifixion and blood in the context of first-century Jerusalem. They demonstrate the significance of the famous passage of John 20:5-7, as analyzed by some of the most important Biblical scholars of the world. The book contains twenty pages of color photographs, many of which are from EDICES. These photographs explain visually the bloodstains and wrinkles found on the cloth, how the cloth was used, its comparison with the Shroud of Turin and the historical odyssey from Jerusalem to Spain.
