GOTHIC LINEARIZATION

テキスト英語

ゴシック建築における線形構造について多様な写真、図版を用いながら解説。

This is the first monograph that reveals the process through which Gothic interior walls acquired high linearity. This research is fundamentally different from previous works in its approach because it defines Gothic linearization, not by an increase in the number of linear elements but by a change in their profiles.

From the perspective of linearization, this research presents new interpretations in relation to the introduction of round piers and rib vaults in the nascent stage of Gothic architecture, confirming the leading role of Ile-de-France during this stage.
