The contributions begin with an overview of the scholarly work of Keel and the development of his aims and methods, including a revision of an article dealing with semiology in the interpretation of art. The book proceeds to address the research history of iconology in art history, presenting the methodology of Erwin Panofsky and one of his influential predecessors, Charles Clermont-Ganneau, in contrast with Keel’s three methodological steps leading from iconographic analysis to iconology. Contributors then present two case studies of how Keel’s method can be applied to interpret Egyptian and Mesopotamian images, allowing insights into the worldview of an ancient culture and the aim of iconology. The book concludes with a report about how iconographic analysis and iconology is taught on University level.
Hans Ulrich Steymans is Full Professor of Old Testament and the Environment of the Bible at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland.
