Descripción
Since the Christianization of Europe in the 4th century, cathedrals have served as
- centers of ecclesiastical authority;
- marvels of architectural genius and innovation;
- places to instruct communities about cherished Christian values and lessons, and
- sites of political, cultural, intellectual, and economic importance.
Whether they’re located in the heart of a major city or on the outskirts of a rural town, cathedrals possess a spiritual, artistic, and historical grandeur that deserves to be experienced and felt by Christians and non-Christians alike. But rather than traveling around the world to get just a cursory, ground-level glimpse of their greatness, bring these captivating buildings—in their entirety—right into your own home with The Cathedral.
In this course, noted medieval historian and award-winning Professor William R. Cook has crafted an exciting, immersive, and multidimensional experience that will bring you closer to cathedrals like Notre Dame in Paris and those in Amiens, Chartres, and Canterbury than any on-site tour could hope to do. These 24 lavishly illustrated lectures make use of high-definition 3-D modeling and imagery to not just show you the world’s great Gothic cathedrals, but to take you around and inside them, revealing new perspectives you can’t enjoy anywhere else.
