Iconic Imagination for Young Professionals
Is it merely a coincidence in English etymology that 'imagination' is cognate with 'image'? Despite the iconoclasm shared to a greater or lesser extent by all Abrahamic faiths, theism tends to assert a link between beauty, goodness, and truth, all of which are viewed as Divine attributes. Drawing explicitly on a Platonic metaphysics of the image as a bearer of transcendence, The Iconic Imagination shows the singular capacity and power of images to represent the transcendent in the traditions of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam. In opposition to cold abstraction and narrow asceticism, the book demonstrates that the image furnishes a vision of the eternal through the visible and temporal.
Douglas Hedley argues that religious ideas can be presented in a sensory form, especially in aesthetic works. The author contends that, despite the iconoclasm shared to varying degrees by all Abrahamic faiths, theism tends to assert a connection between beauty, goodness, and truth, which are perceived as Divine attributes. Hedley's work, The Iconic Imagination, draws directly on a Platonic metaphysics of the image as a vessel of transcendence, revealing the unique ability and power of images to embody the transcendent within the traditions of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam. In contrast to cold abstraction and narrow asceticism, Hedley demonstrates that the image provides a vision of the eternal through the visible and temporal.
