Images of Germany range from stereotypes, both positive and negative, to sophisticated statements. The articles in this volume reflect upon the diversity of images of Germany held within Germany, by Germans as well as by immigrants, and abroad, in countries such as France, the Czech Republic, the United States, and Canada. The authors are drawn from various professions and include diplomats and writers, Germanists, historians, political scientists, and sociologists. While some deal with the creation or dissemination of images of Germany, others examine images as reflected in public perceptions, speeches, postage stamps, textbooks, literature, film and TV programmes, and architectural monuments. This collection of essays on perceptions and conceptions of Germany focuses on the period from 1945 to the present.

No single group in early modern Europe produced as many emblem books as the Society of Jesus. G. Richard Dimler, S.J., has been a pioneer in the field of Jesuit emblem scholarship. With publications and conference presentations spanning more than forty years on various aspects of the Jesuit emblem, Fr. Dimler has almost single-handedly put Jesuit emblematics on the international scholarly map. His foundational contribution to emblem studies was recognized by Fordham University in 1999, when it named him Research Professor of Jesuit Emblem Studies, and, more recently, with the awarding of emeritus status. Emblematic Images and Religious Texts: Studies in Honor of G. Richard Dimler, S.J., is a tribute by sixteen emblem scholars from the U.S., U.K., and Europe to his pioneering scholarship.
