PURPOSE
To enable students to work across disciplinary and specialism boundaries, and in particular to explore simultaneously the art-historical and theological dimensions of Christian art – approaches which are generally pursued in isolation from one another.

DESCRIPTION
The MA in Christianity and the Arts will investigate how Christian scripture, beliefs and practices have found expression in the arts over 2000 years, tracing the idea of beauty in Western theological tradition, and making use wherever possible of examples and case studies in London.
