The Gothic Cathedral (Accredited Module)

This module considers the Gothic cathedrals of Western Europe as both an architectural monument and as a site of social and religious community. In addition to examining how and why these great soaring structures were constructed, it addresses the artistic culture of cathedral building, from the building plan, to masons' tools to life in the clergy. It will be pan-European in focus, beginning in France, but will also utilise local resources when available, including an anticipated class visit to York Minster.
