Paracelsus (1493?1541) spoke in various contexts about the multi-facetted topic of images. As a radical lay theologian, he wrote in the spirit of the Reformation attacking the Roman Churchâ??s use of images and outlining the power of faith. As a natural philosopher andphysician, he composed a tract on images which was intended not to instruct readers in the aesthetic enjoyment of images, but to deploy their â??powerâ? and their â??virtueâ? to explore the world and gain salvation. In his main work Astronomia magna , he integrated his ideas of the efficacy of images in an encyclopaedic scientific programme and laid out his expectations of the true artist.
