Un chiodo della croce di Cristo, la colonna della flagellazione, alcune spine della corona di Gesù, il fieno della culla, i capelli della Madonna o i resti dei tanti martiri della persecuzione cristiana. Queste sono solo alcune delle migliaia di reliquie che si nascondono nelle chiese di Roma. Molte sicuramente autentiche, altre... Questa guida all'affascinante mondo delle reliquie romane si addentra in un tema controverso che suscita passioni o indifferenza, fede o scetticismo. È una ricerca sul significato di questa devozione dalle origini del cristianesimo ai giorni nostri. Infatti le reliquie, il loro culto e possesso hanno avuto un peso sia politico che religioso molto importante nella nostra storia, determinando il fenomeno dei pellegrinaggi che tanto hanno influito anche sul piano culturale ed economico.

In the past, museums often changed the meaning of icons or statues of deities from sacred to aesthetic, or used them to declare the superiority of Western society, or simply as cultural and historical evidence. The last generation has seen faith groups demanding to control 'their' objects, and curators recognising that objects can only be understood within their original religious context. In recent years there has been an explosion of interest in the role religion plays in museums, with major exhibitions highlighting the religious as well as the historical nature of objects.Using examples from all over the world, Religious Objects in Museums is the first book to examine how religious objects are transformed when they enter the museum, and how they affect curators and visitors. It examines the full range of meanings that religious objects may bear - as scientific specimen, sacred icon, work of art, or historical record. Showing how objects may be used to argue a point, tell a story or promote a cause, may be worshipped, ignored, or seen as dangerous or unlucky, this highly accessible book is an essential introduction to the subject.

Kunsthistoriker, Historiker, Textilkundler, Restauratoren, Epigraphiker, Archäologen und Theologen diskutieren die Datierung, Lokalisierung und Konservierung einzelner Objekte und ganzer Ensembles. Sie vergleichen den bedeutenden Gandersheimer Schatz mit erhaltenen und verlorengegangenen geistlichen Schätzen aus Lüneburg, Lamspringe, Bilshausen, Hildesheim, Essen, Halberstadt und Konstanz. Ausgehend von diesen Beispielen werden die generellen Probleme der Bestandsrekonstruktion und Restaurierung, der Musealisierung und Präsentation historischer Kirchenschätze in heutiger Zeit dargelegt.
