The Development and Character of Gothic Architecture by Charles Herbert Moore is a comprehensive study of the history, evolution, and characteristics of Gothic architecture. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the development of Gothic architecture, from its origins in the Romanesque period to its final form in the late Gothic period. It explores the various styles and techniques used in Gothic architecture, including the pointed arch, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses. Moore also examines the social, religious, and cultural factors that influenced the development of Gothic architecture, including the rise of the Gothic style in France and its spread throughout Europe. He discusses the role of the church in the development of Gothic architecture, as well as the influence of the Gothic style on secular buildings such as castles and town halls. The book includes numerous illustrations, photographs, and diagrams to help readers better understand the various elements of Gothic architecture. It also includes a glossary of architectural terms and a bibliography for further reading. Overall, The Development and Character of Gothic Architecture is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and architecture of the Gothic period.1906.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book uncovers the origins and evolution of Gothic architecture. The author argues that true Gothic is a style of building found exclusively in France and defined by a highly organized and beautifully logical structural system where every part of the building plays a dynamic role and even ornamentation serves a structural purpose. The author traces the evolution of this architectural style from Romanesque architecture, demonstrating how Gothic architecture was a creative reimagining of the old style that resulted in a building system far more innovative and beautiful. The systematic analysis provided in this book overturns the previously held but mistaken belief that English cathedrals and other pointed constructions across Europe are examples of Gothic. In fact, the author argues that none of these buildings exemplify true Gothic, a realization that leads the author to posit an entirely new understanding of the artistry and engineering of the Middle Ages. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781334233623_0
