Does Michelangelös art reflect Catholic orthodoxy or is it the work of a follower of the Reform, forced to act in secret? The question of Michelangelös religious belief is still debated, and the positions taken tend to remain unilateral. This volume gathers contributions by art historians, literary scholars, and historians of religion who address this question in all its complexity.
