This book provides a compelling narrative of how Post-Roman Architecture evolved in Europe during the thousand-year period from the fall of the Western Roman Empire to the rise of the Renaissance in the 18th century. The author takes readers on a chronological journey through the Byzantine and Romanesque periods and the Gothic age that followed, describing how styles arose from one another and connecting them to the social changes that inspired them. Tracing a path from style to style, the author explains how the Renaissance revived the study of Roman architecture and the subsequent effect it had on the French Renaissance, which the author posits took on a national character of its own, influenced by the strong national feeling of the French people.
