"Noli me tangere," these are the words of the risen Christ to Mary Magdalene in the Latin Bible translation of John 20:17. Few words from the Bible have stimulated so much interest among art giants alike as these three intriguing worlds. The Noli me tangere motif serves as the basis of an interdisciplinary research programme supported by the Fund for Scientific Research. In the first part of this volume, the four members of the research team explore the significance of the Noli me tangere each from their own particular discipline. The second part of the volume contains a catalogue of the exhibited works with a colour photograph and short description. The artworks stem from a number of historical periods, running from the fifteenth to the twenty-first centuries.
