The Oxford bookseller and publisher John Henry Parker (1806-84), a
supporter of the Tractarian movement and a friend of Cardinal
Newman, was also a historian of architecture, whose two-volume
Glossary of Terms Used in Grecian, Roman, Italian, and Gothic
Architecture is also reissued in this series. In 1851, he published
a volume on English domestic architecture from the Norman Conquest
to 1300 by the antiquary Thomas Hudson Turner (1815-52), and on
Turner's death he completed the second volume, on the fourteenth
century, himself. Both volumes are highly illustrated with line
drawings and plans. Volume 1, after an introductory chapter about
pre-Conquest buildings, discusses architectural plans, features,
building materials and techniques of the twelfth and thirteenth
centuries, and gives examples of surviving buildings, from grand to
modest, all over England, as well as reproducing documents throwing
light on the painting and decoration of medieval buildings.
