Description

David Hotchkiss Price, a specialist in Renaissance cultural and ecclesiastical history, has broken new ground with this comprehensive analysis of Renaissance humanism as the foundation for Drer's religious art and, in particular, for Drer's reception of the Reformation movements. Price also offers an innovative study of the relationships between text and image, and a pioneering assessment of the representation of Jews in Drer's religious art. David Price is Associate Professor of History and of Church History, Southern Methodist University.
