Issue 14 of the magazine "CEM" addresses the theme "Image and Devotion" and is part of the research conducted by the CITCEM Research Group "Material and Immaterial Heritage". The objective of this volume is to promote reflection on images and devotional practices. The exhibition "Moving Images: Devotions and Cultural Practices in Porto Cathedral" demonstrated the dynamics of configuration and reconfiguration of ecclesiastical space. The text discusses the existence of images of Our Lady in the 11th century, based on documentary evidence. The articles offer a comprehensive and detailed view of devotion and the representation of religious images in different contexts and historical periods. The article "The Devil is on the loose: the cult of Saint Bartholomew in Foz do Douro" addresses the relationship between cults and images of devotion and playful practices in Foz do Douro, including the tradition of holy baths.
