Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canterbury As we stand upon the summit of Bell Harry Tower - more happily called the Angel Steeple of Canterbury Cathedral, looking down upon city and countryside, much of the history of England lies spread beneath our feet: the Britons were at work here before the Romans came marching with their stolid legions here to Ethelbert, Saxon King of Kent, St Augustine preached the gospel of Christ; in the church below, Becket was murdered and the Black Prince buried; to this city, to the shrine of St Thomas, came innumerable pilgrims, one of them our first great English poet; then the crash of the Reformation swept away shrines and pilgrims, the mirk and romance of mediaeval ism vanished into the mists of history, and the city to-day lives chiefly in the past.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Architectural History of York Cathedral Tee following history is drawn up upon the same general system as that which I have already adopted in the cases of Canterbury and Winchester, which I have had the honour of publishing nu der the auspices of the Archaeological Institute. III the first place I have collected together the chronicled history of the building, retaining the very words of the original whenever the building itself was the immediate sub ject of the paragraph in question. I have, in the next place, closely examined the structure itself, analyzing its various arrangements as they arose from time to time, and comparing them with the previous chronicle. Much however of the history of this cathedral is necessarily derived from fabric rolls, indulgences, and other chapter documents which do not admit of being completely separated as the passages of a written chronicle do, and therefore I have been compelled to scatter these memoran da throughout my analysis of the structural changes. Nevertheless I have always taken the greatest pains to separate my own hypotheses and explanations of these documents from the documents themselves, in oppo sitiou to the general practice of writers of architectural history, which is, that after having satisfied themselves of the meaning and application of the chronicles and other documents to the various parts and periods of a building, they proceed to inter weave these documents into their histories in such a manner as to make it exceedingly diffit to discover other possible explanations.

This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of the Cathedral and Priory of Christ in Canterbury The aim of the authors of the present book is to give a trustworthy, readable, and compendious account of the Cathedral from the earliest times to the present day. To do this within the compass of a single octavo volume it has been necessary to confine the range of view strictly to the church and its custodians. Thus, since the book does not claim to be a history of the See of Canterbury, little is said about the Archbishops except when they came into contact with the defacto governing body - prior and convent before, and dean and chapter after, the Reformation. To write a history of the great Benedictine priory of Christ Church would require a separate volume; but its fortunes and internal economy are sketched in the following pages with some fulness of detail, and this we believe to be a distinctive feature of the present book. Throughout an honest attempt has been made - to go to first-hand sources of information, and the recent rearrangement of the Cathedral archives has Opened out some which have not hitherto been avail able. Full advantage has been taken of this Oppor tunity, with the result that the authors have been able to incorporate in their book some fresh matter, and much more which, if not absolutely new, has hitherto been known only to a few.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Architectural History of Canterbury Cathedral The translation of Gervase, which it is the principal object of the following history to illustrate, was read by me with a few necessary omissions at the evening meeting of the Architectural Section of the British Archæological Association, on the 11th of September 1844, and on the following morning I had the honor of explaining to a numerous audience in the cathedral itself, the application of this translation to the building, and also of pointing out those later parts of which the history has been recorded, and which arc the subject of the concluding chapters. The work may therefore be considered as forming part of the Transactions of the Association in question, although it is obviously too bulky and independent for insertion in the Journal, which is the recognised organ of that body. In preparing it for the press, however, I have made many additions to it, including especially the entire history of the Saxon cathedral; and on a subsequent visit, with the able assistance of Mr. De la Motte, the drawings were made which illustrate its pages. These, however, have no pretensions to form a complete delineation of the building, architecturally speaking, which would plainly have required larger paper and a different material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to the Canterbury Cathedral, one of the oldest and most famous Christian structures in England, located in Canterbury, Kent. The cathedral is part of a World Heritage Site and serves as the cathedral of the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is the leader of the Church of England and the symbolic leader of the worldwide Anglican Communion. Founded in 597, the cathedral was entirely rebuilt between 1070 and 1077. The east end of the cathedral was considerably expanded at the beginning of the 12th century and reconstructed in the Gothic style after a fire. Substantial eastward extensions were added to accommodate the influx of pilgrims visiting the shrine of Thomas Becket, the archbishop who was murdered in the cathedral.

This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History and Antiquities of the Metropolitical Church of Canterbury: Illustrated by a Series of Engravings, of Views, Elevations, Plans, and Details of the Architecture of That Edifice Having developed the histories, and illustrated the architecture of the cathedrals of Salisbury, Norwich, Winchester, York, Licigfield, Oxford, and Canterbury, it is my intention to pursue the same delighting but ardu ous task with unabated zeal; but with increased knowledge of the subject, and even greater care and caution than hitherto. In other cathedrals, I do not think it will be necessary to give so many engravings as in those of the former, and consequently the prices of each and all will be reduced. The drawings for wells and peterborough are nearly all prepared; and it is my intention to proqeed with the former immediately. The style and manner in which Canterbury Cathedral has been com pleted I hope will convince my friends and subscribers that I am solicitous to preserve their confidence, and secure their approbation. Most of the plates, in the volume, have been carefully drawn, and successfully engraved; and will therefore reflect credit on the respective artists. The subjects will be found interesting; and more particularly those of the plans and sections. To the professional gentlemen, who furnished me with draw ings for these, I am under considerable obligations - for they devoted much time and skill in obtaining correct sketches and measurements of the various parts of this complex and spacious edifice. To Mesas. Gresy and taylor, who had previously appropriated two years assiduous atten tion to, and delineation of the classical temples of Greece and Italy, and the Gothic cathedrals of Normandy and France, such a task seemed easy and amusing. They have just completed their elaborate and seien tific work on The Architectural Antiquities of Rome, 2 vols. Folio, and thereby rendered an essential service to the professional architect and to the antiquary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Canterbury and the Gothic Revival written by Lawrence Lyle and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canterbury Cathedral's medieval Gothic image survived centuries of religious discord, neglect and Georgian 'improvements'. From 1800, a new generation was re-inspired by the prevalent architectural and artistic 'Gothick' vogue. At this time, a passionately ambitious young architect, William Butterfield, created a Gothic missionary college in two years, and the Dean of Canterbury, who wanted the Cathedral to rival St Peter's, Rome, began the rolling repair programme continuing in today's Appeal. Priests, bishops and Gothic enthusiasts carried the style from there to parish churches, industrial cities and the colonies. With more than fifty illustrations, including a striking colour section, this book will delight lovers of Canterbury and of the Gothic style everywhere.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cathedrals of England and Wales Of all our great ecclesiastical edifices there is none, with the exception of Westminster Abbey, that is more linked with the events Of English history than the cathedral of Canterbury. It is not merely that it is one of our chief works of art, and Of which we may be justly proud, but it has been the scene of important episodes, and it stands as a memorial of one of the most momentous of them in our annals. For many generations it was regarded as hallowed, and when we consider how opinions change, it might be possible for it to be regarded SO again.
