Thomas Schipflinger traces the concept of Sophia--Holy Wisdom--throughout history in Scripture; art and literature; in the writing of Sophia scholars; in Russian iconography and architecture; and in the images and incarnations of Sophia in Eastern traditions. The common thread running throughout the work is the belief that Sophia appears as the Virgin Mary.
