The Capital Sculpture of Wells Cathedral: Masons, Patrons and The
The Capital Sculpture of Wells Cathedral: Masons, Patrons and the Margins of English Gothic Architecture MATTHEW M. REEVE For Eric Fernie This paper considers the sculpted capitals in Wells cathedral. Although integral to the early Gothic fabric, they have hitherto eluded close examination as either a component of the building or as an important cycle of ecclesiastical imagery in their own right. Consideration of the archaeological evidence suggests that the capitals were introduced mid-way through the building campaigns and were likely the products of the cathedral’s masons rather than part of an original scheme for the cathedral as a whole. Possible sources for the images are considered. The distribution of the capitals in lay and clerical spaces of the cathedral leads to discussion of how the imagery might have been meaningful to diCerent audiences on either side of the choir screen. introduction THE capital sculpture of Wells Cathedral has the dubious honour of being one of the most frequently published but least studied image cycles in English medieval art. The capitals of the nave, transepts, and north porch of the early Gothic church are ornamented with a rich array of ﬁgural sculptures ranging from hybrid human-animals, dragons, and Old Testament prophets, to representations of the trades that inhabit stiC-leaf foliage, which were originally highlighted with paint (Figs 1, 2).1 The capitals sit upon a highly sophisticated pier design formed by a central cruciform support with triple shafts at each termination and in the angles, which oCered the possibility for a range of continuous and individual sculpted designs in the capitals above (Fig.

The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE)
ABSTRACT MARY ELIZABETH BLUME The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE) The Gothic Revival of the nineteenth century in Europe aroused a debate concerning the origin of a style already six centuries old. Besides the underlying quandary of how to define or identify “Gothic” structures, the Victorian revivalists fought vehemently over the national birthright of the style. Although Gothic has been traditionally acknowledged as having French origins, English revivalists insisted on the autonomy of English Gothic as a distinct and independent style of architecture in origin and development. Surprisingly, nearly two centuries later, the debate over Gothic’s nationality persists, though the nationalistic tug-of-war has given way to the more scholarly contest to uncover the style’s authentic origins. Traditionally, scholarship took structural or formal approaches, which struggled to classify structures into rigidly defined periods of formal development. As the Gothic style did not develop in such a cleanly linear fashion, this practice of retrospective labeling took a second place to cultural approaches that consider the Gothic style as a material manifestation of an overarching conscious Gothic cultural movement. Nevertheless, scholars still frequently look to the Isle-de-France when discussing Gothic’s formal and cultural beginnings. Gothic historians have entered a period of reflection upon the field’s historiography, questioning methodological paradigms. This

Canterbury Cathedral: Repairs to the North West Transept (1 of 2 Projects Funded) Awarded £150,000 in November 2014 Towards a £1,006,500 Project
Canterbury Cathedral: repairs to the North West Transept (1 of 2 projects funded) Awarded £150,000 in November 2014 towards a £1,006,500 project The need The North West Transept is, internally, one of the most visited and historically significant areas of Canterbury Cathedral, providing the main access to the Crypt and up towards the High Altar. Externally there was a need for emergency repair and stabilisation of previous failing repairs from the 19th and early 20th century to the Vice Turret Spirelet, in order to keep the area weather-tight and safe. New movement was recorded in the 2012 Quinquennial Inspection: cracks were evident through stones in addition to visible separation of stone joints. Failed cement-rich render had fallen on the roofs of the Cloister below. If the work had not taken place the cathedral would have had to close the site of the Martyrdom, where Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered, which is the most visited part of the building. Outcomes The repair needs were urgent prior to the work taking place but will now require only routine maintenance, with no major work needed for the next 70 to 100 years. The improved condition of the Detail of the spirelet pinnacles.

Canterbury Cathedral C. 1167
1 CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL C. 1167 “The story begins on ground level, with footsteps.” —MICHEL DE CERTEAU THE VIEW FROM THE TOP of Canterbury Cathedral is abso- lutely breathtaking. Looking out from Bell Harry Tower, the view extends to the horizon in every direction, with the English Chan- nel to the south and London to the west. From the top of the 235-foot tall bell tower, even the enormous nave of the cathe- dral seems small. Further down below the nave lies the town of Canterbury, founded by the Romans nearly two thousand years ago. The Roman walls still mark the circumference of the city cen- ter, encompassing a street plan that largely dates from the Middle Ages. There is layer upon layer of ancient, medieval, and modern history in Canterbury, and at the center of it all, just as it has been for more than fourteen hundred years, is the cathedral. After soak- ing in the view from the tower, I headed down inside the cathe- dral, entering through the western portal, moving slowly eastward through the nave, the transept—where the two axes of the cathe- dral intersect, the choir—where wooden stalls serve as seating for worship leaders, the high altar, and finally to the Trinity Chapel. The cathedral interior is jaw-droppingly beautiful. The vaulted ceilings seem to rise all the way up to heaven as light pours into the space through the tall stained glass windows. Every surface is 13 14 THE DIGITAL CATHEDRAL covered with highly detailed artwork, which all together proclaim the glory of God and reflect the beauty of heaven.

Rose Window Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Rose Window from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
6/19/2016 Rose window Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Rose window From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A rose window or Catherine window is often used as a generic term applied to a circular window, but is especially used for those found in churches of the Gothic architectural style and being divided into segments by stone mullions and tracery. The name “rose window” was not used before the 17th century and according to the Oxford English Dictionary, among other authorities, comes from the English flower name rose.[1] The term “wheel window” is often applied to a window divided by simple spokes radiating from a central boss or opening, while the term “rose window” is reserved for those windows, sometimes of a highly complex design, which can be seen to bear similarity to a multipetalled rose. Rose windows are also called Catherine windows after Saint Catherine of Alexandria who was sentenced to be executed on a spiked wheel. A circular Exterior of the rose at Strasbourg window without tracery such as are found in many Italian churches, is Cathedral, France. referred to as an ocular window or oculus. Rose windows are particularly characteristic of Gothic architecture and may be seen in all the major Gothic Cathedrals of Northern France. Their origins are much earlier and rose windows may be seen in various forms throughout the Medieval period. Their popularity was revived, with other medieval features, during the Gothic revival of the 19th century so that they are seen in Christian churches all over the world.

Ni{ i Vizantija VI 59 Carolyn S. Snively TRANSEPTS IN THE ECCLESIASTICAL ARCHITECTURE OF EASTERN ILLYRICUM AND THE EPISCOPAL BASILICA AT STOBI In this paper the nature and definition of the transept, which sometimes appears as a feature of Early Byzantine ecclesiastical architecture in the Balkan Peninsula, will be considered. Before examining the transept and its variations, however, the methods of transmission of such concepts will be considered. Communication and the Spread of New Ideas In antiquity the system of Roman roads, constructed initially for military purposes, connected the distant provinces of the Roman geographical empire with each other and with Rome and facilitated the relatively rapid movement of people and goods around the Mediterranean world. It may be useful to re- member, in this day of superhighways and transportation by air, that within the Roman territorial empire located around the Mediterranean Sea, there were only two methods of travel, by land along Roman roads and over the sea during some seasons of the year. Not only people and merchandise, but also concepts and ideas, such as transepts and monasticism, traveled by road and in ships. They moved more quickly along major highways and in and out of seaports. Communication was slower along secondary roads, but with relative hot spots where such roads crossed. Great parts of the rural countryside, however, re- mained relatively untouched and unaware of new ideas that passed by. The Via Egnatia (Fig. 1), built shortly after the final Roman takeover of the Macedonian kingdom in the mid 2nd century BC, followed the line of earlier, less formal routes.
