This book explores Romanesque architecture, spanning from the decline of the Roman Empire to the close of the twelfth century. It examines how this period of fundamental change, religious evolution, and new construction methods gave rise to a distinct Christian architecture.
Discover how the classical tradition was both modified and rediscovered during this experimental age, which saw the genesis of vital inventions that paved the way for Gothic architecture. From the grand Durham Cathedral to the churches of central France, Spain, and Italy, the book reveals the beauty and vigour of this architectural movement. It explains the social and political factors that shaped its development, offering insights into one of the most exciting and transformative periods in architectural history.
