Synopsis:
This book brings together the text with many of the artworks it has inspired; from exquisite medieval illuminated manuscripts and the graphic woodcuts of Albrecht Durer, to paintings by Turner and William Blake. This powerful text has fascinated people for centuries and continues to do so into the 21st century.
The text takes the form of an address to the seven churches of Asia, and a warning to them to stay faithful. This is followed by an extended prophecy which relates a time of war and disaster, a final judgement of the wicked, and the dawn of a new heaven and earth.
About the Authors:
Saint John the Divine was one of the twelve disciples of Jesus and brother of another disciple, James. He is believed to have written several of the books of the New Testament, including The Gospel of John and The Epistles of John.
