A
lively biography of Chartres Cathedral . . . Ball’s account of its construction reveals fascinating details.” ーThe New Yorker Chartres Cathedral, south of Paris, is revered as one of the most beautiful and profound works of art in the Western canon. But what did it mean to those who constructed it in the twelfth and thirteenth centuriesーand why was it built at such immense height and with such glorious play of light, in the soaring manner we now call Gothic? In this work, Aventis Prize winner and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist Philip Ball makes sense of the visual and emotional power of Chartres and brilliantly explores how its constructionーand the creation of other Gothic cathedralsーrepresented a profound and dramatic shift in the way medieval thinkers perceived their relationship with their world. Beautifully illustrated, filled with astonishing insight, Universe of Stone embeds the magnificent cathedral in the culture of the twelfth centuryーits schools of philosophy and science, its trades and technologies, its politics and religious debatesーenabling us to view this ancient architectural marvel with fresh eyes. “A terrific book . . . a lucid, thoughtful tour de force.” ーThe Christian Science Monitor “Engrossing . . . a resplendent account of the mysteries of Chartres Cathedral.” ーSunday Times “There is no better introduction to the subject.” ーThe Wall Street Journal画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。
