Bild und Schrift auf 'magischen' Artefakten

Discussion about artifacts with magical effects generally focuses on the explicit messages written on them, but what is the relationship between text and image? Does the magic come from an interaction between these two elements or should they be interpreted separately? This volume examines the intricate relationship between text and image on amulets and cameos, among others, across different cultures and centuries.
