Paperback. Condition: New. A tutor of mathematics at Cambridge, William Whewell (1794-1866) mostly published on mechanics. He became professor of mineralogy in 1828, Knightbridge professor of moral philosophy in 1838, and master of Trinity College in 1841. This work is unusual among his writings for its focus on architecture, ye…t the emphasis placed on terminology is consistent with his other publications, such as An Essay on Mineralogical Classification and Nomenclature (1828). Architectural Notes is significant for offering a detailed theoretical analysis of the origins of Gothic architecture, especially of the mechanical principles underlying it, notably the pointed arch. The discussion of German churches, despite the book's title, is of secondary concern, although guidance is given for recording Gothic buildings. This first edition was published anonymously in 1830. The second (1835) and third (1842) editions bore Whewell's name and were partially revised to reflect recent research on the origin of the pointed arch.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Gothic architecture, exploring its origins and development in Europe, with a particular focus on German churches. The author investigates the transition from the Romanesque style to the more fully-formed Gothic, examining the architectural… features that characterize each period. The book examines the role of the pointed arch in the development of Gothic vaulting, and argues that the necessity of constructing arched vaults of different widths but equal heights led to the prevalence of the pointed arch. The author then traces the influence of this form throughout the structure, analyzing how it shaped other features, such as the pier arches, buttresses, and windows. This exploration examines the Gothic style in its broader European context, comparing and contrasting it with similar developments in England and France. The author also delves into the debate surrounding the origins of Gothic architecture, considering theories that attribute its development to Eastern influences and arguing for the importance of understanding the style's organic evolution within a European framework. Through this detailed examination of the architecture and its historical context, this book offers a rich and nuanced understanding of Gothic architecture's unique characteristics and its enduring legacy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
