Présentation de l'éditeur
Gothic architecture. I have also tried to supply the tourist with a vade mecuni of somewhat larger scope than has hitherto been attempted. The present two volumes by no means cover the entire field of the architecture of theM iddle A ges. If I have chosen an over-ambitious title, it has been in the hope that circumstances may some day permit me to supplement the present volumes with others dealing with those styles that I have here left untouched. But however this may be, the book as it stands at present attempts to unravel only a single thread from the tangled skein of medieval art. This thread has its origins in Antiquity and stretches unbroken to the Renaissance; it is made up of that succession of formative or generative styles that shaped the architectural destinies of Europe. These formative styles are the key of medieval architectural history; if the main events of their development be once firmly grasped, a perspective has been gained on the entire subject of medieval art. and the various minor styles will at once fall into their due position in regard to the broader tendencies of the times. For this reason I even hope that the present volumes may prove to be of more value to readers to whom the devious turnings of the art of theM iddle A ges are comparatively unfamiliar, than a book more comprehensive in scope.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
