As a figure, Mary Magdalene has interested and informed the dreams of many theologians, writers, and especially painters. As a person, however, she remains both known and unknown. This work is made up of two parts: the first explains the theological and anthropological implications of the Revelation, while the second expands on the historical fruits of Mary-Magdalene's presence in Provence. Authors Froger and Sanchez's different approaches are what give this work its great anthropological, historical, and iconographical richness.
