Newly Published by Freedom Publishing
:
Beauty, Spirit, Matter: Icons in the Modern World
Our Orthodox brethren have long prayed with and written Sacred Icons. But it is only now, after centuries of
absence, that Icons are becoming understood again in the West. As there are numerous excellent books
about the theology and the liturgical use of icons, this volume concentrates on the broader implications of the
icon’s theology for our lives in the 21
st
century, exploring the insight that icons give to such contemporary
issues as:
ecology,
the nature of beauty,
and much more. Beautifully written and illustrated in colour.
‘In this astonishing book Aidan Hart takes us through the icon to the very heart and mind of God and thus ourselves. Read
this and the world will never appear the same again - thank God!’
Martin Palmer, Secretary General of Alliance of Religion
