Reviews

Without feigning to give the final word on any of his chosen works of art, these careful and studied reflections by Capps are a means of developing a healthy, restorative vision of the melancholy self, and both undergraduate and graduate researchers will find the monograph both accessible to their abilities and quite applicable to the interests of pastoral theology. -Taylor Worley, Theological Book Review, volume 26, no 1, 2014 ...this book does offer an intriguing foray into the dynamic dialogue which emerges from psychoanalysis, religion and art. -Jessica Bratt, Scottish Journal of Theology, Vol. 69 Issue 02, May 2016
