Excerpt from The Comacines Their Predecessors and Their Successors
This small volume is an attempt to trace in outline only the story of what, in some respects at least, may be regarded as the most remarkable guild of builders which Europe has produced, and is the outcome first of a lecture and then of articles in the Antiquary and the Transactions of the Leeds Installed Masters' Association.
Signor Riviora has, I believe, in his work entitled Lc Origiui dell' Architettura Lombarda, published in 1908, reached some of the conclusions I have drawn, especially that which links the Comacines to the Collegium of classical Rome.
I have not seen his book, however, nor that of Professor Merzario, and hence have come to my conclusions independently of them. My obligation to Leader Scott's Cathedral Builders, published in 1899, I have acknowledged in my pages.

The Comacines Their Predecessors and Their Successors (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the medieval artisans who left Rome, settled in Lombardy, and became the most influential and admired guild of builders in Western Europe during the Dark Ages. The book explores the historical origins of the guild, its organizational structure, and its legacy in architecture and sculpture, with particular focus on the Quatuor Coronati, the four martyred patron saints of the guild. The author makes the argument that the speculative Freemasonry of today is the outcome of the operative Masonry of the Middle Ages, and that the Comacines, as they were called, were one of its primary antecedents. The book thus provides an invaluable context for understanding both the history of architecture and the development of Freemasonry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
