This volume discusses, from various disciplinary perspectives, the challenges that researchers face when studying the agency of visual media, which has been a central approach since the Iconic Turn of 30 years ago. The editors combine contributions from an international lecture series, showcasing current positions on dealing with the impulses of the Iconic Turn, with others by researchers from the University of Regensburg, where more than 10 years ago the transdisciplinary research cluster "Seeing and Understanding" was founded. The contributions represent a wide range of fields, including art history, philosophy, theology, history, and pedagogy as well as film, dance, religious, and cultural studies.

Christoph Wagner, Dominic E. Delarue, University of Regensburg.
