The volume tracks the subject across disciplinary, cultural, and period-based divides, from its shadowy origins to its uncertain\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003efuture, and from the rich variety of its cultural and artistic manifestations to its deep cognitive roots. Allegory is everything we already know it to be: a mode of literary and artistic composition, and a religious as well as secular interpretive practice. As this volume attests, however, it is much more than that--much more than a sum of its parts. Collectively, the phenomena we now subsume under this term comprise a dynamic cultural force which has left a deep imprint on our history, whose full impact we are only beginning to comprehend, and which therefore demands precisely such dedicated cross-disciplinary examination as this book seeks to provide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45241296552087,"sku":"9780367521943","price":14450.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367521943.webp?v=1769228266","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/allegory-studies-contemporary-perspectives-9780367521943","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
