Architecture as Cosmology examines the precedents, interpretations,
and influences of the architecture of one of the great buildings in
the history of architecture, Lincoln Cathedral. It analyzes the
origin and development of its architectural forms, which were to a
great extent unprecedented and were very influential in the
development of English Gothic architecture and in conceptions of
architecture to the present day. Architecture as Cosmology
emphasizes the relation of the architectural forms to medieval
philosophy, focusing on the writings of Robert Grosseteste, Bishop
of Lincoln (1235-53). The architecture is seen as a text of the
philosophy, cosmology, and theology of medieval English culture.
This book should be useful to anyone interested in architecture,
architectural history, architectural theory, Gothic architecture,
and medieval philosophy.
