This anthology is the result of an interdisciplinary project on the phenomenon of
the decapitated head of Saint John the Baptist in its exegetical context, in the material
culture of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and finally in more recent approaches
regarding medium studies. Several specialists and scholars from these fields were
invited to share their most recent conclusions, thus contributing to our understanding
of one of the most peculiar events, artifacts and phenomena in West: the rise and
fall of a male head as subject of martyrdom, devotion and artistic expression. What
emerges from these collected essays is a nuanced understanding of the beheading and
presentation of Saint John
