Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an authoritative insight into the origins, history, and evolution of Gothic Architecture. As a fascinating introduction to English ecclesiastical building design spanning 800 years, from the Anglo Saxon period until the Reformation, it is a valuable resource for students, enthusiasts, and casual readers alike. Beginning with an exploration of the origins of Gothic architecture in Romanesque and Norman styles, the author traces the development of pointed arches, flying buttresses, ribbed vaulting, tracery, and other defining features. By examining the influences of these elements on the aesthetics and engineering prowess of Gothic architecture throughout various historical periods, the text demonstrates how churches evolved into symbolic testaments to the era's theological, social, and cultural values. From the austere beauty of Norman to the intricate embellishments of Perpendicular Gothic, the architectural shifts explored in this book unveil a legacy of creativity and artistic expression. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334242915_0
