| Synopsis: |
In this book Charles M. Radding and William W. Clark offer fresh perspectives on changes in architecture and learning during the Romanesque and Gothic periods, arguing that builders and masters shared similar ways of reasoning and solving problems."Erwin Panofsky's intuition about the relationship between scholastic knowledge and architecture finds its justification and correction in this very suggestive and convincing essay. A brilliant demonstration of the creativity of medieval intellectuals, from Abelard to the masters of Saint Denis and Reims, and of the modernity of the twelfth century, the greatest century of the Middle Ages."-Jacques Le Goff "This book was waiting to be written. . . . Radding and Clark present sound expositions of the history of learning and architecture in the period, and readers working in either area will come away with an enhanced understanding of the culture of the eleventh and twelfth centuries in western Europe."-Eric Fernie, Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain Newsletter |
