Binding, Günther:
Was ist Gotik? Eine Analyse der gotischen Kirchen in Frankreich, England und Deutschland 1140-1350. Mit Farbfotos von Uwe Dettmar.
Sehr gutes Ex. - ... Der Autor bietet eine umfassende und durchwegs angemessene Beurteilung der Bauleistung jener Zeit, denn er beschreibt die architektonischen Kunstwerke nicht nur formal und stilistisch, sondern bezieht auch die geistesgeschichtlichen, politischen, ökonomischen und technischen Grundlagen in seine Überlegungen mit ein. So wird deutlich, wie erst das Zusammenwirken einer Vielzahl untrennbar miteinander verbundener Faktoren ein bestimmtes, individuell gestaltetes Bauwerk entstehen läßt. ...

Institute of Classical Studies. 2008. Softcover. Near Fine. Very light shelfwear else fine.; Institute of Classical Studies Bulletin Supplement 97; 193 pages; The new millennium sees both Pliny the Elder and his massive encyclopaedic Natural History being studied more seriously and holistically than at any time in the preceding century. The essays in this volume which honour the seminal work of Barbara Levick on the politics and society of imperial Rome above all in the period of Pliny’s life and literary activity further this re-assessment. They consider aspects of Pliny’s life and output which have not so far received serious attention. These include his value as a source for the kings of Rome and their achievements; his attitude to astronomy and natural wonders to gentilician commemoration philosophical sects Roman dress and coinage; and his moral judgements on the fall of the Republic. The essays consider the ideological climate of the Flavian period as reflected not only in Pliny’s attitude to the past but in his construction of Rome and Italy and his relationship to contemporary writers like Licinius Mucianus. Pliny emerges clearly as a major literary and cultural figure of the early Empire. . 1905670141 . Institute of Classical Studies paperback
