A History of the Three Cathedrals Dedicated to St. Paul in London
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the construction of three London cathedrals dedicated to Saint Paul, with a particular focus on the challenges of funding and the means employed to overcome them. The author provides historical context on the multiple destructions and subsequent rebuilds, drawing upon historical accounts, letters, and other records. The evolution of the buildings' architecture is traced from the initial Norman construction, through medieval embellishments, to the iconic Renaissance design by Sir Christopher Wren following the Great Fire of London. Along the way, this book examines the role of indulgences, lotteries, and other creative fundraising methods used to finance the construction of these magnificent structures.
