King's College London was shown from an unflatteringly skewed angle, while Christ Church, Oxford, was edited to avoid showing its famous Tom Tower because that was by Christopher Wren and so not medieval. But the cumulative rhetorical force was tremendous." -- Wikipedia. Reprint of the 1898 Second Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine condition/No dust jacket, as issued. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo.

PuginBinding: HardbackPublished: St Barnabas Press, Oxford, 1969Condition:Book: GoodJacket: Worn/faded, no tearsPages: GoodMarkings: Previous ownerCondition remarks: General wear on cover, pages in very good conditionThe influential treatise An Apology For The Revival Of Christian Architecture In England presents a compelling case for the resurgence of Gothic principles in ecclesiastical design. This foundational text passionately argues for the moral and aesthetic superiority of medieval Christian architecture over contemporary styles. It meticulously details the historical decline of architectural standards and illustrates the spiritual significance inherent in traditional forms. Pugin's incisive critique and visionary proposals shaped the discourse on architectural reform throughout the Victorian era. A vital document for understanding 19th-century art history and the enduring legacy of Gothic Revivalism, it remains a cornerstone of architectural theory. Hardback.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 2nd Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has signed inside page. Dust jacket has wear to edges and spine. Marks on back cover. Interior and binding are still very good. Foundational polemical text of the 19th-century Gothic Revival movement in architecture. Pugin argues that a society's moral health dictates the quality of its architecture, using visual satire to contrast the supposed beauty of the medieval Catholic era with the degradation of industrial, 19th-century Britain. The text established the principle of architectural truth, promoting the idea that a building's design must honestly reflect its purpose and internal structure. This edition is a facsimile reproduction of Pugin's seminal work, including an introduction by the eminent American architectural historian Henry-Russell Hitchcock. Includes architectural plates of famous landscape and civic and social structures, ecclesiastical and religious comparisons of monuments, etc. The archaeological study of the Gothic of the Middle Ages by English scholars over the preceding 20 years provided the background for Pugin's familiarity with and enthusiasm for the noble edifices of the medieval, Catholic past which he believed his contemporaries should emulate.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 350 pages. The Glossary is Pugin?s largest and most magnificent book. He intended that his two Dublin Review articles of 1842 would be accompanied by a third dealing with ornament and decoration. However, this developed into a grand survey church ornaments, vessels and vestments which are dealt with alphabetically, including long-forgotten ones he hoped to revive. This masterly survey reveals the extrao rdinary breadth and depth of Pugin?s researches. Its chief glory lies in 73 su perb chromolithographs showing ?correctly? vested clergy and a wide range of patterns for embroidery, monograms and emblems. ?Never ? in modern days at least ? were illuminations more exquisite, concluded The Ecclesiologist (1844) . Even today, Pugin?s Glossary remains a locus classicus for the church furnis hing. The edition reproduced is that of 1846, revised and enlarged by the Rev. B ernard Smith. To it has been added an insightful introduction by Michael Fisher, author of the acclaimed ?Gothic Forever?: A.W.N. Pugin, Lord Shrewsbury and the Rebuilding of Catholic England.…
