In this book, architectural historian Pierre de la Ruffinière du Prey examines these designs as a coherent wholea single masterpiece reflecting both Hawksmoor's design principles and his desire to reconnect, architecturally, with the "purest days of Christianity." "Du Prey's well-argued book enhances our understanding of Hawksmoor's design processes, and sheds light into the murky corners of early 18th-century theological and political concerns. This latest book adds lustre to an engaging writer's reputation."James Stevens Curl, Building Design "The close study of Nicholas Hawksmoor's churches in London extends du Prey's fascination with the legacy, appropriation, and adaption of classical principles and motifs in the evolving pattern of architectural representation. . . . The resulting book is a fascinating reconstruction of the social networks and cultural resources upon which Hawksmoor drew in designing his remarkable churches, enriched by intelligent analysis of the architectural fabric."

Jones brought the classical style to England under the first Stuart kings. Wren, the mathematician, astronomer, and anatomist, turned himself into an architect after the Restoration, and rebuilt London after the Great Fire of 1666. Hawksmoor and Vanbrugh share credit for the English Baroque. Much has been written in celebration of their achievement, and yet much, it seems, remains to be discovered.

    Extractions: The following essay is adapted from a lecture given by Prof Shane O'Dea to the Newfoundland Historical Society on September 23, 1982. There is a marked distinction in the architecture of religious buildings in Newfoundland, a distinction determined at first by period and then by denomination. The earliest churches, built before 1846, tended to be similar to each other, and essentially primitive or at least simple. In the 1840s the cathedrals of both the Roman Catholic and the Anglican churches were begun in the capital, and these had a significant effect on churches later constructed by these denominations. In consequence, when looking at Newfoundland's religious architecture, one is looking at an early period that runs from 1662 to 1800, followed by a span of limited development (1800-1846), then by a interval of cathedral building, and finally by a period when these cathedrals influenced other construction. This essay focuses on the latter two phases of church architectural development. Anglican Church, St. John's.

    Extractions: French Cathedrals, Basilicas and Churches @ Globe-Gate A cathedral is more than a church; this cruciform building is the seat of a Catholic bishop or an archbishop's dominion. A basilica is simply a very large church, though the word denoted a large public meeting hall, separated into aisles by a double colonnade, in Roman times. We have also represented a number of parish and abbey churches, but most of them were constructed in medieval times, and fall into a limited number of architectural categories: Romanesque architecture seems to stylize the vision which European Christians had of the Roman homes and public buildings used as places of worship. It is characterized by massive walls with little or no buttressing, moderately pitched roofs, rounded arches, column-supported lintels and its churches are somber from the small number and stature of their windows. Here are some links which conceptualize architectural and artistic features of Romanesque style: Thinner walls held up by elaborate and pronounced buttressing, vertical lines, pointed arches and steep spires, along with extensive use of stained glass windows characterize Gothic architecture, which appears around 1130. Here are some links which conceptualize architectural and artistic features of Gothic style:

I will feature visits I have made to churches both in the UK where I live and from trips abroad. I welcome information about similar sites on the web that you may have found. I live in Bristol,UK, and have a special interest in churches in that city and those in Cologne, Germany, where I have good friends. May I take this opportunity to thank people that have E-mailed me with their comments on ChurchCrawler. I have also enjoyed helping out with enquiries for information on churches and look forward to receiving information back in return. What's New ?
