- Gothic Wonder is the most extensive published study of English medieval art and architecture in its European context. Massively documented, it is based on fieldwork study of architecture, sculpture, manuscript illumination and other art forms in England, Spain, France, Germany, Scandinavia and Italy. It considers the aesthetic, economic, social and religious determinants of art in the light of medieval and contemporary debates about aesthetics and engagement. The result is a deeply researched, intellectually innovative and comprehensive account of a period in which English art and architecture played an important role in the development of late-medieval European Gothic visual culture.
