Welcome! A few years ago, I discovered an application that artists employ in their works to bring cultural awareness to their audiences. Having discerned this semiotic theory that applies to literature, music, art, film, and the media, I have devoted the blog, "Theory of Iconic Realism" to explore this theory. The link to the publisher of my book is below. If you or your university would like a copy of this book for your library or if you would like to review it for a scholarly journal, please contact the Edwin Mellen Press at the link listed below. Looking forward to hearing from you!

The Holy Rosary

Reciting the prayers of the Rosary is a powerful, meditative communication in which many have engaged through the centuries. Below, is a link to a broadcast from Dr. Taylor Marshall on 19 quotes regarding the praying of the Holy Rosary.
