Today, given the lack of an actual theory, a certain number of medievalists have adopted an approach of anthropological questioning in order to study visual works. In order to create a base for the study of the anthropology of medieval images, we must reflect on the symbolic effectiveness of the images, their substance and their materiality, in a contextual methodology. |
