'In the first volume of the new Brill Research Perspectives series, Religion and the Arts: History and Method, editor-in-chief Diane Apostolos-Cappadona presents the reader a remarkable introduction, an overview, and a plethora of future perspectives (...) Although initially appearing as a neatly boxed topic, the relationship between religion and the arts provides an almost endlessly expanding field. As such, this inaugural Brill Research Perspectives volume is a brave undertaking, as well as a welcome resource for scholars trying to find their way in this vast field of opportunity.' Lieke Wijnia, Groningen University and University College Tilburg, Reading Religion, January 2019.

'This short monograph (...) can be especially recommended to anyone either conducting or contemplating postgraduate research within an increasingly complex subject area (...). More seasoned scholars, too, seeking to identify the provenance, current trends, and future direction of their own research, will learn much from a text which at a mere 80 pages, is a miracle of compressed clarity, cultural breadth, and long-fermented relection. It also includes a wide-ranging, thematic, and up-to-date bibliography.' Graham Howes, Trinity Hall, Cambridge, Art and Christianity 95, autumn 2018 'In the first volume of the new Brill Research Perspectives series, Religion and the Arts: History and Method, editor-in-chief Diane Apostolos-Cappadona presents the reader a remarkable introduction, an overview, and a plethora of future perspectives (...)
