Download or read book Medieval Church Architecture written by Jon Cannon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Britain is a treasure trove of medieval architecture. Almost every village and town in the land has a church that was built during the period, whose history is legible – to those who know how to look – in every arch, capital, roof vault, and detail of window tracery. By learning how to identify the stylistic phases that resulted from shifts in architectural fashion, it is possible to date each part of a church to within a decade or two; this book introduces all the key features of each succeeding style, from Anglo-Saxon and Norman through to the three great gothic styles, Early English, Decorated and Perpendicular. It will be indispensable to anyone who enjoys exploring medieval churches, and who wants to understand and appreciate their beauty more deeply.

This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 526 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 A few words are necessary as to the intent and scope of this book. As the title indicates, it is an introduction to the study of English church architecture, excluding work done before the Norman Conquest and after the Reformation, It may be thought that a book in two quarto volumes is somewhat voluminous for an "Introduction." The answer is that a general treatment, especially if aided, as in these volumes, with all manner of plans, drawings, sections, and diagrams, as well as photographs, will be found at once easier to follow and more enjoyable than the unpalatable pemmican of a condensed text-book. It may be added that though the book contains over 1,000 pages, yet if the glossaries and indexes and the numerous excursuses in small type be omitted, the text proper does not amount to more than 400 pages, fully half of the book being occupied with illustrations. The book is intended not so much for the professional student as for the great body of readers who nowadays are interested in mediæval architecture and wish to obtain some general knowledge of it. For them it seemed desirable to attempt an account which without ceasing to be thorough and detailed, should be elementary in character. With that intent, technical terms have been eliminated where possible, and where the use of them was unavoidable, the meaning of each has been defined in the text, and again in an alphabetical glossary prefixed to the first volume. Archæological history also has been as far as possible eschewed; what has been attempted is to give a plain, straightforward account of mediaeval building construction as controlled by mediæval ritual. Being intended chiefly for those with little or no previous knowledge of the subject, the book demanded exceptional copiousness of illustration. Fortunately, the last decade has been marked by a large advance in the practice of architectural photography. There are more architectural photographers than ever before, and their work is marked by greater technical excellence. Formerly general views of exteriors and interiors could be had in abundance, but very little architectural detail; it is now easy to obtain photographs of vaults and roofs, in plan as well as in perspective, window tracery, foliated and molded capitals, bases, ground-courses, and the like.
