Book excerpt: Eric Fernie presents a chronological survey of Romanesque architecture and the political systems that gave rise to the style. It is known for its massiv quality, thick walls, round arches, piers, groin vaults, large towers, and decorative arcading, as well as the measured articulation of volumes and surfaces. Romanesque architecture was also, at the time of its greatest popularity in the 11th and 12th centuries, the first destinctive style to dominate western and central Europe. The book includes an exploration of the gestation of the style in the 9th and 10th centuries and its survival in competition with the Gothic up to the 14th century.

Download or read book The Origins of Medieval Architecture written by Charles B. McClendon and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first devoted to the important innovations in architecture that took place in western Europe between the death of emperor Justinian in A.D. 565 and the tenth century. During this period of transition from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages, the Early Christian basilica was transformed in both form and function.Charles B. McClendon draws on rich documentary evidence and archaeological data to show that the buildings of these three centuries, studied in isolation but rarely together, set substantial precedents for the future of medieval architecture. He looks at buildings of the so-called Dark Ages—monuments that reflected a new assimilation of seemingly antithetical “barbarian” and “classical” attitudes toward architecture and its decoration—and at the grand and innovative architecture of the Carolingian Empire. The great Romanesque and Gothic churches of subsequent centuries owe far more to the architectural achievements of the Early Middle Ages than has generally been recognized, the author argues.

Book excerpt: What is Romanesque? The art and culture of Europe between 1050 and 1200 have traditionally been viewed as meager and impoverished. Now a new book takes a fresh look at this period and reveals a world of unexpected beauty. Accomplished, ornate sculpture, intricate goldwork and enamel, brilliant manuscript illumination, dazzling mosaic and glass characterize the art of the so-called "Dark Ages." Andreas Petzold examines medieval European art in the broader context of its relationship to the art of Byzantium and Islam, tracing the influences among these cultures through trade and the Crusades. He views Romanesque art in terms of the social structures that organized the medieval world -- church, princely court, peasant society -- discovering on the way the important role of women as artists and patrons, the complex relationships among religious and secular institutions, and the ways that sculpture, architecture, painting, and other art forms developed in style and technique to express a world no longer Classical but not yet Gothic. Petzold reveals a culture that is rich and varied, sophisticated and refined. Splendid illustrations of architecture, metal-work, stained glass, painting, and textiles reveal that the art of Romanesque Europe is anything but dark. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "By surveying these elaborate tapestries, delicate carvings, and other objects in roughly the historical sequence in which they were created, we glimpse the evolving styles and artistic traditions of the Middle Ages and gain a more meaningful understanding of the contexts in which many of them appeared. Among the masterpieces on display at The Cloisters are the famed Unicorn Tapestries, the richly carved twelfth-century ivory cross associated with the abbey of Bury St. Edmunds, known as the "Cloisters Cross," the exquisite Annuciation triptych by the Netherlandish painter Robert Campin, and many fine examples of manuscript illumination, enameling, metalwork, and stained glass." "Complete with digital color photography, map, floor plan, and glossary, this book is a contemporary guide that will reward students and enthusiasts of the Middle Ages as well as visitors seeing the Museum for the first time."--BOOK JACKET.
