Published in 1848, this two-volume work was received with great praise. During a celebrated career, Anna Brownell Jameson (1794-1860) produced Shakespeare criticism, travel writing, biography, and art history, and was admired by contemporaries such as Mary Shelley and Thomas Carlyle. Taking an aesthetic rather than religious approach, the work is a study of the legends represented in Western art of the Middle Ages, ordered taxonomically. Though Jameson is considered the first professional female art critic, this is a reductive label; she was, rather, one of the great art critics of her age and her work is still of importance to art historians. Volume 2, which is richly illustrated, examines the Patron Saints of Christendom, the Virgin Patronesses, the early martyrs, the Greek and Latin martyrs, the early bishops, the hermits, and the warrior saints.

This study investigates the pictorial world of the medieval Vadstena Abbey church. The interior of the church was filled with altars and images that had the three separated groups of viewers in mind: the 60 nuns, the 25 conventual brothers and the numerous pilgrims coming to visit the shrine of Saint Birgitta. The pilgrims faced a pictorial message where the role of saint Birgitta was emphasized, but still one among all the other saints. The images directed to the nuns and the brothers accentuated the role of the Virgin Mary as the exemplarily follower of Christ. Furthermore, all the church interior was furnished to enhance the position of the nuns, i.e. that this monastic foundation was made primarily for women.

Nach der Spaltung der Konfessionen wurde das Sakrament zum zentralen Gegenstand kultureller Auseinandersetzungen. Dabei entstanden Denkfiguren, die bis in die Gegenwart hinein relevant geblieben sind. Auf das Modell des Sakraments wird aber auch außerhalb von theologischen Zusammenhängen zurückgegriffen, etwa in der Bildkritik, in der Metaphysik oder in der Debatte über das Theater. Im Sakrament verschränken sich Präsenz und Signifikation, Wort und Ritual, Vollzug und Zitat. Sakramentale Repräsentation blickt auf das Thema aus Perspektive von Epistemologie und Semiotik, Emblematik und Ikonlogie, Poetik und politischer Theorie der Frühen Neuzeit.
