Book excerpt: This guidebook to Notre Dame cathedral, originally published in 1902, offers a history of the great Parisian structure accompanied by over forty detailed photographs and drawings. Charles Hiatt approaches Notre Dame in multiple ways; first, its importance as a religious and communal building, a place for Christians to congregate and pray, or celebrate public events. Secondly, its role as an architectural centerpiece of Gothic grandeur, showcasing the beautiful design and the cultural glory of the French capital. Thirdly, we are treated to the social aspect; the immense pride residents of Paris took in the great church, and its role before, during, and after the great upheaval of the French Revolution. Throughout his narrative, Hiatt employs photograph and intricate hand-drawn sketches of the cathedral design. The reader will gain an appreciation of the engineering and artistic excellence represented by the towering spire, the stone archways, the vaulted ceilings. The major portions of the cathedral are all examined; the exterior designs, the entrances, the nave, choir and transepts. Hiatt writes in a detailed but enthusiastic style, perfect for the curious visitor. It is with pride that the publisher reprints this excellent guide anew, following the tragic fire that damaged Notre Dame cathedral in April of 2019.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notre Dame De Paris: A Short History Description of the Cathedral, With Some Account of the Churches Which Preceded It The task of writing an account of the cathedral of Notre Dame is materially lightened by the minute details of its history and architecture to be found in the various writings of M. Viollet-le-Duc, of which, unfortunately, the Library of the British Museum does not contain a complete set. The Description de Notre Dame, published in 1856 by M. de Guilhermy in conjunction with M. Viollet-le-Duc, contains much useful material, while the splendidly illustrated account of the church in the first volume of Paris a travers les Ages is full of interesting archaeological particulars. As the numerous other authorities which have been used are quoted in the text, it is unnecessary to enumerate them here. The writer has found Mr. Charles Herbert Moore's Development of Gothic Architecture useful in not a few difficult matters. He wishes specially to thank Mr. Edward Bell for valuable suggestions on many important points. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: “The wonderful cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris, one of the greatest achievements of European civilization, was on fire. The sight dazed and disturbed us profoundly. I was on the edge of tears. Something priceless was dying in front of our eyes. The feeling was bewildering, as if the earth was shaking.” —Ken Follett “[A] treasure of a book.” —The New Yorker In this short, spellbinding book, international bestselling author Ken Follett describes the emotions that gripped him when he learned about the fire that threatened to destroy one of the greatest cathedrals in the world—the Notre-Dame de Paris. Follett then tells the story of the cathedral, from its construction to the role it has played across time and history, and he reveals the influence that the Notre-Dame had upon cathedrals around the world and on the writing of one of Follett's most famous and beloved novels, The Pillars of the Earth. Ken Follett will donate his proceeds from this book to the charity La Fondation du Patrimoine.

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Includes historic descriptions of the cathedral *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading "Notre Dame de Paris, in particular, is a curious specimen of this variety. Every surface, every stone of this venerable pile, is a page of the history not only of the country, but of science and of art. Thus-to mention here only a few of the chief details-whereas the small Porte Rouge almost touches the limits of fifteenth century Gothic delicacy, the pillars of the nave, by their massiveness and great girth, reach back to the Carlovingian Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Pr�s. One would imagine that six centuries lay between that door and those pillars." With these words, the famous 19th century novelist Victor Hugo attempted to introduce his readers to the backdrop of his seminal work, later known as The Hunchback of Notre Dame. This, it should be noted, was not the name that Hugo gave to his work; instead, he called it simply Notre Dame, after the building in which he set it. This location was no accident, for, perhaps more than any other city in Europe, Paris has seen every kind of trouble and happiness that can befall a place. It may be called the "City of Lights," but it also frequently saw its leaders' blood spilled in the streets. It is the symbol of romance, but also a place where the famed Napoleon divorced the love of his life in order to have a son. It is famed for its art and culture, but it hosted Nazis during four long years of occupation. Most of all, it is a city of building up and tearing down and building up again, where life is ever-changing. Yet, in the midst of this history of turmoil and chaos, one place has survived largely unchanged, a symbol to Christian believers of the unchanging truths of faith. Notre-Dame has stood as a monumental, though silent, witness to much of Paris' history. As Hugo pointed out, "This generative Mother-Church is, among the other ancient churches of Paris, a sort of Chimera: she has the head of one, the limbs of another, the body of a third-something of all. These hybrid edifices are, we repeat, by no means the least interesting to the artist, the antiquary, and the historian...They let us realize to how great a degree architecture is a primitive matter, in that they demonstrate...that the greatest productions of architecture are not so much the work of individuals as of a community; are rather the offspring of a nation's labour than the out-come of individual genius; the deposit of a whole people; the heaped-up treasure of centuries; the residuum left by the successive evaporations of human society; in a word, a species of formations. Each wave of time leaves its coating of alluvium, each race deposits its layer on the monuments, each individual contributes his stone to it." Notre-Dame de Paris: The History and Legacy of France's Most Famous Cathedral chronicles the remarkable history of the Parisian cathedral. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events, you will learn about Notre-Dame like never before.
