Overview

The Holy Scripture, not the image, has thus far been considered the benchmark of Protestantism. However - in accord with lifeworldly developments (image flood) and insights of the cultural sciences (iconic turn) - interest in the image is increasing, not least in the church, which has built a reputation for its intimate relation to Scripture. How does Protestantism's interest in the image relate to its traditionally high esteem of the text? What is the fundamental relationship of internal and external, linguistic and artistic images?

The proceedings of the 1. Evangelischer Bildertag (1st Protestant Day of the Image) pursue these questions.
