Images, Idolatry, and Iconoclasm in Late Medieval England: Textuality and the Visual Image
Dimmick
The pressure to destroy images was not an exclusively sixteenth-century phenomenon. The late medieval period witnessed both religious and secular conflicts over images. The essays in this book, each by an outstanding scholar, consider issues of central concern - literary, political, and art-historical - that arise from image making and breaking.
