Produktinformationen "Hieronymus Bosch´s The Garden Of Earthly Delights"
It is wonderful: you will be able to understand The Garden of Earthly Delights! Hieronymus Bosch¿s famous painting is explained here as an enjoyable theological essay. The painter did not create a ¿Find the Hidden Objects¿ puzzle at all, because even the smallest detail has its function and its precisely appropriate placement. The emphasis will be on a dream and what can be learnt from it; on the senses and on perception, and on imagination and on the commandment to control the senses. The soul and its mystical marriage to God are integral to the discussion as well as human sexuality both within marriage and for its own sake. Furthermore, we will explore self-knowledge, humility and pride, free will and grace, and God¿s love. Its converse can be found in Hell in an ugly polemic employing a catalogue of anti-Jewish motifs. To unravel the meaning of the Garden of Earthly Delights is not to detract from the painting¿s enchantment. Its aesthetic and intellectual beauty will, in fact, fascinate even more than before because of the ambition of its discovered allegorical meaning.
