The Age of the Cathedrals : Art and Society, 980-1420
The Age of the Cathedrals Art and Society 9801420 Author:Georges Duby Recognizing that a work of art is the product of a particular time and place as much as it is the creation of an individual, Duby provides a sweeping survey of the changing mentalities of the Middle Ages as reflected in the art and architecture of the period. — "If Age of the Cathedrals has a fault, it is that Professor Duby knows too much... more », has too many new ideas and takes such a delight in setting them out. . . insights whiz to and fro like meteorites."--John Russell, New York Times Book Review« less
