In this book Charles M. Radding and William W. Clark offer fresh perspectives on changes in architecture and learning during the Romanesque and Gothic periods, arguing that builders and masters shared similar ways of reasoning and solving problems. "Erwin Panofsky's intuition about the relationship between scholastic knowledge and architecture finds its justification and correction in this very suggestive and convincing essay.
