Icons and the Name of God

Exploring the intersection of Orthodox theology and art, this work delves into how icons and the name of God convey divine revelations that shape our spiritual identity. Sergius Bulgakov addresses significant historical controversies surrounding icon veneration and the sanctity of God's name, arguing that an icon transcends mere artistry when it is named. This translation of two pivotal essays offers a deeper understanding of these theological concepts, making Bulgakov's insights accessible to a broader audience for the first time.
