Riassunto

Excerpt from Specimens of Gothic Architecture, Vol. 2: Selected From Various Ancient Edifices in England, Consisting of Plans, Elevations, Sections, and Parts at Large; Calculated to Exemplify the Various Styles, and the Practical Construction, of This Admired Class of Architecture

It has been noticed that a new taste in literature led the way to this revolution in Architecture, in the same way, as we may remark, that an enthusiastic zeal for the diffusion of classical learning had produced a blind admiration of Roman Architecture, until every thing in art, as well as literature, was censured as Gothic or barbarous, which did not accord with classical models. A few of the earliest essays and dissertations on Gothic Architecture have been mentioned, to which a list might be added of greater number than could be fairly noticed in these remarks.
