Believing And Seeing : The Art Of Gothic Cathedrals

  • Believing And Seeing : The Art Of Gothic Cathedrals

  • Attribution

    Roland Recht ; translated by Mary Whittall

  • Publication Details

    Book, University of Chicago Press, 2008

  • Links

  • Description

    In his incisive survey of Gothic art and architecture, Roland Recht argues that this preoccupation with vision as a key to religious knowledge profoundly affected a broad range of late medieval works. Reimagining these works as a link between devotional practices in the late Middle Ages and contemporaneous theories that deemed vision the basis of empirical truth, Recht provides students and scholars with a new and powerful lens through which to view Gothic art and architecture.

The Gothic Enterprise : A Guide To Understanding The Medieval Cathedral

  • The Gothic Enterprise : A Guide To Understanding The Medieval Cathedral

  • Attribution

    Robert A. Scott

  • Publication Details

    Book, University of California Press, 2003

  • Links

  • Description

    Scott explores why medieval people built Gothic cathedrals, how they built them, what conception of the divine lay behind their creation, and how religious and secular leaders used cathedrals for social and political purposes. While most books about Gothic cathedrals focus on a particular building or on the cathedrals of a specific region, The Gothic Enterprise considers the idea of the cathedral as a humanly created space. Finally, by drawing comparisons between Gothic cathedrals and other monumental building projects, such as Stonehenge, Scott expands our understanding of the human impulses that shape our landscape.
