Abstract:
This thesis covers an immense territory of religious thought and architectural history. Its intent is to explain the emergence of the Early Gothic cathedral: this remarkable construction type first appeared at the St-Denis abbey church, and also at Sens Cathedral, near Paris, in the middle of the twelfth century. Early Gothic is defined as the phase up to Chartres Cathedral, the first High Gothic cathedral. This first chapter will introduce the central propositions of the thesis, and will explain several working definitions. It also commences an investigation into the function of the cathedral

Abstract:
Reims Cathedral holds a great deal of significance for the history of Gothic architecture, as well as the larger history of France as the coronation church. Given the historic significance of Reims, it is not surprising that much scholarship has been dedicated to the building’s sculpture, glass, and architecture. Most studies dealing with the cathedral’s architecture are based on stylistic and archaeological analysis, augmented by the use of surviving documents related to the construction. Although much fruitful work has been done in this vein, important questions about the building’s chronolo

Abstract:
This thesis examines the Great West Window at Exeter Cathedral designed by William Peckitt of York (1731-95). Peckitt was arguably the most important glass designer of the eighteenth century and undertook prestigious commissions at York, Oxford and elsewhere. In 1764 he was contracted by the Dean of Exeter, Jeremiah Milles, to supply glass to complete the restoration of the Cathedral’s glazing and to make the new window, which has often been considered to be his masterpiece. Peckitt’s Great West Window is no longer extant (although portions of it have been salvaged), having been replaced in 19

Abstract:
Despite its monumental scale, its position at a turning point in the development of Gothic architecture and its visionary spatial conception, the cathedral of Bourges has remained an anomaly of medieval architectural history. Conceived and built concurrently with the cathedral of Chartres, Bourges has persistently been viewed as the lesser of the two buildings. This thesis attempts to contextualize supposed irregularities of Bourges' design and to review existing historiographical notions of the building in order to rearticulate its artistic character and redefine its historic position.

Considérée à juste titre comme un édifice majeur de l’architecture gothique, la cathédrale d’Amiens a fait l’objet de nombreuses études qui se sont essentiellement consacrées à la construction du gros œuvre entre 1220 et 1288. Pourtant, après cette date et jusqu’à la fin du Moyen Âge, l’édifice a été le théâtre de travaux ambitieux comprenant notamment l’adjonction d’une série de chapelles entre les contreforts de la nef entre 1290 et 1380. Bien que leur construction se soit étendue sur près de cent ans, ces chapelles présentent une grande homogénéité d’ensemble, dont la mise en œuvre progress

This study foregrounds the problem of the center and periphery of Gothic architecture near Paris. Taking architectural citation as its interpretive framework, it focuses on a core group of rural parish churches situated in the land of the Paris cathedral chapter. It addresses the visual links between Notre-Dame of Paris and the village churches, the ways in which architectural citation was put into practice, and the institutional context that imbued the resemblances with meaning. It demonstrates that quoting the architecture of the cathedral of Paris was the exception, not the rule, in the vil
