Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the History of English Church Architecture Prior to the Separation of England From the Roman Obedience It is no matter of accident that churches were built in a certain form and in a certain style at a certain date. It is possible to give a reason for this, in every case, and to trace back the cause of any particular fashion of church building, step by step, to the origin of christian art, which is one with the origin of the christian Church.

Download or read book Art Books written by Wolfgang M. Freitag and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997. For this second edition of Art Books: A Basic Bibliography of Monographs on Artists, the vast number of new books published since 1985 was surveyed and evaluated. This has resulted in the selection of 3,395 additional titles. These selections, reflective of the increase in the monographic literature on artists during the last ten years, are evidence of the activities of a larger number of art historians in more countries worldwide, of the increasingly diverse and ambitious exhibition programs of museums whose number has also increased dramatically, and also of a lively international art market and the attendant gallery activities. The selections of the first edition have been reviewed, errors have been corrected and important new editions and reprints have been noted. The second edition contains 278 names of artists not represented in the first edition.

Book The Church of England Before the Reformation  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Church of England Before the Reformation Classic Reprint written by Dyson Hague and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church of England Before the Reformation Second, Because Of the treatment Of English Church history which has Obtained currency during the past twenty or thirty years. It can also be safely asserted that a very large number of educated Churchmen have been led to accept the fallacy that the Church Of England before the Reformation was quite distinct from Rome in doctrine and practice, and that we were practically in the same position before the Reformation as we are now. It is, Of course, a difficult matter to over throw a popular idol; but I have no hesitation in saying that a closer investigation of the subject compels one to conclude that much Of the current interpretation of Church history before the Reforma tion is a fond thing vainly invented. The continuity theory is a figment. It can only be maintained by an ignoring Of the facts Of history, and by the special pleading Of an advocate who is determined to carry out his theory. Mr. Tomlinson, in his Legal History Of Canon Stubbs, shows to what lengths a passion for historical continuity may carry even such an able historian as the present Bishop Of Oxford.

Book A History of Ecclesiastical Architecture in England  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A History of Ecclesiastical Architecture in England Classic Reprint written by George Ayliffe Poole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Ecclesiastical Architecture in England It is impossible to write on such subjects Without a moral tone, though direct moralizing may be avoided; unless indeed one can divest oneself of the feeling that they have a moral, and this is a power which the author by no means covets. He feels that the moral here is a wholesome one. Every instance in which we are brought into connection with those to Whom we owe our very existence as individuals, and as a nation, ought to make us feel our fellowship rather than our distance, and to teach us a proper estimate of ourselves and of our fathers. If there are many things which tend to lessen the influence even of our common Christianity in making us one with them, it will be useful to view them as engaged in a work, of which we in herit the advantages: and if we are superior, as we are and ought to be, to our remote ancestors, in many things, - in the arts of life, in habits of society, in soundness of objective faith and if we are quite as conscious of this as is consistent with charity and humility, it may be a wholesome exercise for us to pursue a study which will present them to us as unquestionably our superiors in one branch of the arts, and in one of the fruits of true religion.

Book An Introduction to English Church Architecture  from the Eleventh to the Sixteenth Century  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book An Introduction to English Church Architecture from the Eleventh to the Sixteenth Century Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Francis Bond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to English Church Architecture, From the Eleventh to the Sixteenth Century, Vol. 1 One specially novel feature should be mentioned. The treatment of the main constructional subjects is throughout analytical. But even if this treatment is fairly adequate, no student can arrive at the end of such chapters as those on vaulting. Abutments, window tracery, roofs, etc., without considerable mental strain. If he has read faithfully, and looked up his cross-references as he should have done, there may remain with him a bird's-eye view of the whole subject; but he is very far from grasp or mastery. What he ought to do is to read the chapter straightway a second and even a third time. This, however, cannot be expected of a jaded reader; he wants a change, not a second helping of fish, but an omelette or an entree. Such a change is now provided. The more important subjects, after being treated analytically, are then discussed over again, but in the concrete, rag, after 106 pages setting forth the science and art of vault construction, fifty-seven individual vaults are selected for study, and are dissected separately. If the reader will turn to these, he will find all the principles of construction which he has read about in the text set forth over again, but in such different fashion that he will hardly notice that the new dish is after all but a réchauffé. This application of the concrete method of study, aided by a c0pious apparatus of diagrams, has not been attempted before, and, it is believed, will be found really helpful. Nor will the readers for whom this book has been prepared be likely to complain that here and there it is a good deal more than a treatise on building construction. It is good for those who are to be introduced to medizeval church architecture to know not only how a church was built, but why it was built, who built it, who served in it, who worshipped in it, and what manner of worship was theirs - Ancient or Modern. Accordingly, much space has been devoted in the introductory chapters to matters of human interest, before plunging into stones and mortar.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Apology for the Revival of Christian Architecture in England Amid this motley group (oh! Miserable degradation!) the venerable form and sacred detail of our national and Catholic architecture may be discerned; but how adopted? Not on consistent principle, not on authority, not as the expression of our faith, our government, or country, but as one of the disguises of the day, to be put on and off at pleasure, and used occasionally as circumstances or private caprice may suggest.
