ICONS AND POWER: The Mother of God in Byzantium

The Virgin Mary embodied power rather than maternal tenderness in the Byzantine world. Know as the Mother of God, she became a guarantor of military victory and hence imperial authority. The author connects the fusion of Marian cult and imperial rule with the powers assigned to images of this All Holy woman. Well illustrated, many in color.
