In early modern times scholars and architects investigated age-old
buildings in order to look for useful sources of inspiration. They
too, occasionally misinterpreted younger buildings as proofs of
majestic Roman or other ancient glory, such as the buildings of the
Carolingian, Ottonian and Stauffer emperors. But even if the
correct age of a certain building was known, buildings from c.
800-1200 were sometimes regarded as 'Antique' architecture, since
the concept of 'Antiquity' was far more stretched than our modern
periodisation allows. This was a Europe-wide phenomenon. The
results are rather diverse in style, but they all share an
intellectual and artistic strategy: a conscious revival of an
'ancient' architecture - whatever the date and origin of these
models. Contributors: Barbara Arciszewska, Lex Bosman, Ian
Campbell, Eliana Carrara, Bianca de Divitiis, Krista De Jonge,
Emanuela Ferretti, Emanuela Garofalo, Stefaan Grieten, Hubertus
Gunther, Stephan Hoppe, Sanne Maekelberg, Kristoffer Neville, Marco
Rosario Nobile, Konrad Ottenheym, Stefano Piazza, and Richard
Schofield.
