In this unique study, the traditional image of medieval architecture consisting entirely of Gothic cathedrals and the castles of chivalry is set aside to provide an entirely new perspective. With the emphasis shifted away from such areas as France towards the creativity of other regions, including central Europe and Spain, this comprehensive volume focuses on the diverse nature of a great variety of buildings between 1150 and 1550. Treating the subject thematically rather than chronologically, construction methods, patronage and function, as well as the symbolic meanings represented in architecture are explored, providing an excellent reference for students of art, art history and the general reader.
