"The modern mind cannot comprehend the symbolic - and real - power that the cathedral has held for much of the past 2,000 years of Western civilization. Rising to the heavens, a three-dimensional manifestation of art, science, and religious fervor, a cathedral was the local seat of power, community, worship, and often economics. <br/>To understand the deep historical, religious, social, and architectural context that makes a serious study of the cathedral possible, we start at the beginning with the development of cathedrals: Why did they come about and when? Why did they take on a particular shape? Who designed and built them, and for what purpose?<br/>After exploring cathedrals from the earliest eras, we will become familiar with the monumental style of church architecture and decoration that we call Romanesque. We will then turn our attention to the Gothic style, developed in the area around Paris in the second half of the 12th century. It became the predominant form of church architecture for the next 300 years and beyond and is the main focus of our course. <br/>Many of Europe`s most famous Gothic cathedrals will be featured, starting with the church recognized as the first Gothic structure: Saint-Denis in Paris. From there, many of the lectures will examine the most famous Gothic cathedrals of northern France, including Notre Dame, Chartres, Amiens, Laon, and Reims. Although that region is considered the birthplace of Gothic, we will follow the spread of the style to other parts of Europe, including England, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Czech Republic, and even the New World. <br/>Although Gothic architecture is usually associated with pointed arches and flying buttresses, in fact it contains a wide range of forms, and we will see that no two Gothic churches are alike. So as we progress, we will look carefully at the "story" of each cathedral: geographic orientation, local influences, individual stylistic innovations, and unique features, including architectural design, detailed exterior sculpture, exquisite stained-glass windows, and precious relics. <br/>Although the Gothic era is in some senses long past, we will finish with a look at the Gothic revival in modern time and the extraordinary array of neo-Gothic buildings found on every continent and probably in the town or city where you live. <br/>This course is profusely illustrated by 3-D animations and photographs, many of which are from your professor`s own lens, for his photography work rivals that of any professional. Once you have studied these extraordinary structures, you may very well feel the need to see them in person, whether you are a first-time visitor or a frequent traveler". |
