The Symbol at Your Door

- Number and Geometry in Religious Architecture of the Greek and Latin Middle Ages

About The Symbol at Your Door

Offers a perspective in the retrieval of meaning from architecture in the Greek East and the Latin West, and challenges the view that geometry was merely an outcome of practical procedures by masons.
