With new surges of activity from religious, political, and military extremists, the destruction of images has become increasingly relevant on a global scale. His work has brought this subject to a central place in art history, critical to the understanding not only of art but of all images in society. A founder of the study of early modern and contemporary iconoclasm, David Freedberg has addressed this topic for five decades.
The writings in this compact volume explore the dynamics and history of iconoclasm, from the furious battles over images in the Reformation to government repression This volume collects the most significant of Freedberg's texts on iconoclasm and censorship, bringing five key works back into print alongside new assessments of contemporary iconoclasm in places ranging from the Near and Middle East to the United States, as well as a fresh survey of the entire subject.
