Description: Milano: Electa, 2011. 26cm., hardcover, 143pp. illus., most in color. Italian text. Summary: fter the year 1000, throughout Europe there was a 'rebirth' of religious architecture which took advantage of the construction methods of Classical Antiquity. It was the time of the austere and beautiful Romanesque cathedrals. At this time, in England, Spain and Germany, from Burgundy to Central and Northern Italy, from Southern Italy to the more remote regions of Europe, there was a spate of feverish building which literally transformed the appearance of many European cities. The book reconstructs the epic form of the abbeys, the great pilgrimage churches and cathedrals through detailed, concise essays, plans, elevations and imaginative images. Much attention focuses on the construction techniques used and the typical distinguishing traits of Romanesque churches. A user-friendly but in-depth work about one of the most fundamental and fascinating periods of architecture as a whole. (Storia dell'architettura)
