In Images of Hope: Meditations on Major Feasts, Joseph
Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) masterfully weaves
together Scripture, history, literature and theology as he
reflects on major feasts of the liturgical calendar. In each
chapter, he examines works of sacred art that illustrate the hope
we celebrate in our most important Christian holy days.
What do the humble ox and ass at the manger of the Christ Child
tell us about Christmas? In an icon of Christ's Ascension, what
do the Savior's hands held in blessing promise us? What is the
meaning of the sword held by the great statue of Saint Paul
before the Roman church that bears his name?
These and many other questions are explored with depth and
sensitivity in this collection of meditations by the man who
became Pope Benedict XVI. Several beautiful colored images of the
relevant paintings, mosaics and sculptures accompany the rich and
detailed text.
