Staurogram is a book category centered on the cross and its meanings, named after the ancient tau–rho monogram (the staurogram) used in early Christian manuscripts as a visual abbreviation for “cross” or “crucify.” It gathers works that explore the cruciform theme across history, theology, art, and culture—ranging from studies of early texts and iconography to narratives of martyrdom, persecution, and the ethics of self-giving. Titles may include biblical and patristic scholarship, church history, semiotics of sacred symbols, devotional and liturgical reflections, and fiction or poetry that reimagine the paradox of death and new life. Unifying threads include sacrifice, suffering, redemption, resilience, and transformation, tracing the cross’s influence from the Roman world to contemporary spirituality and public imagination.
