The Architecture of Medieval Churches investigates the impact of
affective theology on architecture and artefacts, focusing on the
Middle Ages as a period of high achievement of this synthesis. It
explores aspects of medieval church and cathedral architecture in
relation to the contemporary metaphysics and theology, which
articulated an integrated theocentric culture, architecture, and
art. Three modes of attention: comprehension, instruction, and
contemplation, informed the builders' intuition and intention. The
book's central premise reasons that love for God was the critical
force in the creation of vernacular church architecture, using a
selection of medieval writings to provide a unique critique of the
genius of architecture and art during this period. An
interdisciplinary study between architecture, theology, and
philosophy, it will appeal to academics and researchers in these
fields.
