About the Journal
The yearbook "Sacrum et Decorum. Materials and Studies in the History of Sacred Art" is a peer-reviewed academic journal published by the University of Rzeszów Publishing House, edited by the University of Rzeszów Documentation Centre for Contemporary Sacred Art.
We promote the study of art with a sacred purpose, inspired by the Christian religion, relating to metaphysical issues in 19th- to 21st-century art, seen in a broad cultural context.
Since the first edition in 2008, through subsequent volumes, the editors of Sacrum et Decorum have endeavoured to meet the expectations of the scientific community of art historians and related sciences, among whom there has been a growing interest in research into sacred art of the last two hundred years and the possibility of publishing the results in a separate journal that takes into account the specific nature of the field.
The journal has a supra-regional character, allowing for the confrontation of the results of research conducted in various university centres. "Sacrum et Decorum has no equivalent among scientific periodicals published in Poland, and the few foreign (European) periodicals in the field of sacred art represent too broad a formula and only occasionally lend their pages to the publication of works in the field that is the domain of our journal.
In order to popularise the results of our research work, we pursue a publishing policy aiming at the dissemination of articles on a worldwide and nationwide scale.
We invite all those interested in research on sacred art of the 19th - 21st century and willing to share the results of their scientific work to cooperate with us!
