THE CATHEDRAL
BUILDERS IN ENGLAND
By EDWARD S. PRIOR, M.A., F.S.A.
_Author of “A History of Gothic Art in England,” etc._
In this volume Mr. Prior treats of the Great
English Mediæval Cathedrals, with special
reference to the men by whom they were designed,
and the craftsmen by whom they were erected. He
thus characterizes the successive periods of
Cathedral building in England:—
1. Norman, Benedictine, “Romanesque.”
2. Angevin, Neomonastic, “Transitional to Gothic.”
3. Insular, Episcopal, “Early English.”
4. Continental, Regal, “The Summit of Gothic.”
5. English, Aristocratic, “Decorated.”
6. After the Black Death: Official, “Perpendicular.”
7. Fifteenth Century: Parochial and Trading, “Perpendicular.”
8. Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries: the Craftsman and the Architect.
9. Nineteenth Century: the Restorer and Revivalist.
