Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume collects Wind's published articles and his extensive unpublished writings on Michelangelo. His interpretation of the Sistine Ceiling as a typological programme, its Old Testament scenes adumbrating New Testament events, stands as a demonstration of the complex relationships possible between art and ideas. The volume opens with an introduction to Wind's art-historical work by Elizabeth Sears and a survey of accomplishments in the field of Renaissance theology by John W. O'Malley.
