Rogers, an iconoclast in architecture, is sometimes described as putting the insides of buildings on the outside.
The only one who is projecting feelings onto the idol is the iconoclast with a hammer, not those who should be freed, by his gesture, from their shackles.
We see why we cannot be naive enough in attributing naive belief in antifetishism to the iconoclast.
Puritans and humanists, iconoclasts and sovereigns, topographers and heralds expressed a range of views on how the dead might best be remembered.
The older approaches are not globally optimisable (pauline) or involve exhaustive search (iconoclast).
Understanding iconoclasm in this way challenges the over-neat distinction between active iconoclasts and passive parishioners.

At this level, there was almost complete continuity through the iconoclast century.
So the position of the iconoclasts tends to be viewed monochromatically, if not merely in hostile caricature.
