"The Gothic style is now one of the supreme products of Medieval and Renaissance visual culture. Subject to multiple readings and (re)interpretations from ca. 1500 to the present, Gothic stands as one of two dominant languages of European historical architecture. This volume explores methods of reading and interpreting the Gothic from the twelfth through the sixteenth century. Following the editor’s introduction, it contains ten essays written by leading scholars from Canada, the United States, and Great Britain. In challenging the traditional parameters of Gothic, the papers explore ‘Medieval’ and ‘Renaissance’ manifestations of the Gothic, and they consider material ranging geographically from Ireland to Poland, and from Paris to Sicily. Each paper explores ways in which Gothic was or could be read by the contemporary viewers for which it was designed, and by post-modern commentators. In placing the act of reading at the centre of their investigations, the papers offer significant new insights into the forms and meanings of the Gothic"--P. [4] of cover.

T. Roger Smith's Architecture Gothic and Renaissance will inform the reader on the history, features, and famous examples of great architectural works dating from the 12th century until the 18th century. The book begins where many books would end - with an illustrated glossary. Smith's decision to open Architecture Gothic and Renaissance in this way is enormously beneficial to the reader, particularly one who is not an expert in architectural terms. Following this glossary and an introduction, the book proceeds neatly through the ages, with each chapter devoted to architecture in a different part of the world. There is an examination of gothic architecture in England and continental Europe, which has been divided into geographic regions. There is also an examination of Renaissance architecture, which focuses mainly on France and Italy but also explores other parts of the world. The reader will conclude this book having gained a fairly detailed picture of European architecture in the periods highlighted. Author T. Roger Smith is nothing if not thorough. From the opening glossary the reader is made aware that this book is intended for serious study. Rarely does the book fail to provide fine details on the architectural concepts discussed. Ultimately, Architecture Gothic and Renaissance succeeds in furthering the knowledge of the reader in a relatively entertaining fashion. Those keenly interested in architecture, specifically Gothic and Renaissance works, will doubtless find this to be an enjoyable read.
