Book Architecture Gothic and Renaissance  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Architecture Gothic and Renaissance Classic Reprint written by T. Roger Smith and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T. Roger Smith's "Architecture Gothic and Renaissance" will inform the reader on the history, features, and famous examples of great architectural works dating from the 12th century until the 18th century. The book begins where many books would end - with an illustrated glossary. Smith's decision to open "Architecture Gothic and Renaissance" in this way is enormously beneficial to the reader, particularly one who is not an expert in architectural terms. Following this glossary and an introduction, the book proceeds neatly through the ages, with each chapter devoted to architecture in a different part of the world. There is an examination of gothic architecture in England and continental Europe, which has been divided into geographic regions. There is also an examination of Renaissance architecture, which focuses mainly on France and Italy but also explores other parts of the world. The reader will conclude this book having gained a fairly detailed picture of European architecture in the periods highlighted. Author T. Roger Smith is nothing if not thorough. From the opening glossary the reader is made aware that this book is intended for serious study. Rarely does the book fail to provide fine details on the architectural concepts discussed. Ultimately, "Architecture Gothic and Renaissance" succeeds in furthering the knowledge of the reader in a relatively entertaining fashion. Those keenly interested in architecture, specifically Gothic and Renaissance works, will doubtless find this to be an enjoyable read.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of French Architecture, From the Reign of Charles VIII Till the Death of Mazarin, Vol. 2 But the Gothic tradition in Church-building died hard in France as in England. Mediaeval plans and principles of construction, the nave, aisles, and transepts, the choir and its arches, the vaulting, the buttress, and the flying buttress remained in use after the details of Gothic architecture had been abandoned; and nowhere is the shallow ness of the early Renaissance in France more clearly shown than in this attempt to clothe the traditional facts of mediaeval construction in an alien dress. No attempt was made, as yet, to deal with architecture according to its logical intention, the utmost ambition of these men was to plaster a more or less correct version of some classical detail on to the unoffending surface of their building. Not only had they lost the spirit of mediaeval architecture, but they had even forgotten the structural purpose of the Gothic features that they did retain, as may be seen from buildings such as Beauvais, Where the flying buttresses scarcely stand up by themselves, much less support the vaulting of the choir. Moreover, they must have built badly The church of Notre Dame at Niort, begun in 1491 and completed in 1535, simply and suddenly collapsed on 1sth November 1910.
