However, it is much more than that. It is high-level discussion of the origin, development, and function of didactic art within Manicheism. It will also prove to be a fundamental reference work that will facilitate further research into a previously understudied aspect of Manichaeism' Paul Foster, University of Edinburgh, The Expository Times 128 (1) Author InformationZsuzsanna Gulacsi, Ph.D. (1998, Indiana University) is a Professor of Asian Religious Art at Northern Arizona University and the author of Mediaeval Manichaean Book Art (Brill, 2005), Manichaean Art in Berlin Collections (Brepols 2001), and dozens of articles on Manichaean art.
