Death and architecture cover

Death and architecture

by James Stevens Curl

"Professor Curl demonstrates that in fact death has inspired some of the noblest monumental buildings ever conceived in the West, and his text is judiciously fashioned to this end." "Death and Architecture will interest many people, and it is not aimed at a specialist market. This book emphasises the importance of funerary architecture in the development of architectural style."--BOOK JACKET.
