Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Erwin Panofsky’s Gothic Architecture and Scholasticism, an essay-length work of little over 100 pages, has been garnering scholarly attention ever since it was written in 1951. His interdisciplinary approach to church buildings and analogies he sought to establish with the structure of arguments advanced by scholars at the university of Paris have made it a foundational work in the study of iconology. Yet it has also been the subject of numerous critiques as a "master narrative" of the study of Gothic architecture. In this essay, I focus on his discussion of the placement of rose windows in the facades of Gothic buildings in order to highlight what was important about Panofsky’s work, what he might have developed further, and in some cases did develop in other writings, and what kinds of current thinking did not figure in his argument. |
