The English Cathedrals
Keith Hasted
There is a natural sense of awe in entering these soaring buildings. But why were they designed, and often rebuilt, in the form that survives today?
This course will look at the architectural styles of the great periods of English cathedral building, including the modern era. We will also look at the form, purpose and meaning of the architecture and decoration of these great churches.
