Book excerpt: Excerpt from Origin of Christian Church Art: New Facts and Principles of Research The translators have not found it easy to produce a satis factory rendering of Ursprung der Chrz'stlz'chen Kirchenkunst. The style of the original does not lend itself readily to an English version, and it has been almost impossible to find concise equiva lents for some of the terms employed. A few short passages of purely ephemeral reference have been omitted; otherwise the book remains substantially as it was written. The proofs have passed through the author's hands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from From Schola to Cathedral: A Study of Early Christian Architecture, and Its Relation to the Life of the Church The history of Christian architecture can be traced in existing monuments as far back as the fourth century. We find it then already represented by imposing buildings, with a distinct plan and an elaborate system of decoration, presupposing a period of tentative efforts. The record of these efforts lies however beneath the surface. The monu mental evidence oi them is but slight, and it is only by a search into literary records that we can discern their form and character.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Building: A Study of the Principles of Architecture in Their Relation The fact that a new printing of this volume is necessary would be evidence in a way that interest has not flagged during the last decade, either in churches or their construction, if evi dence were needed. Nothing of the kind is necessary, how ever, for the fact is patent to every one that concrete religion means more in the world to-day than it has meant for many generations, and that the interest in church building has ex tended far beyond the architectural profession and has now come to include, in a very special and unusual way, clergy and laity alike. Nor is this interest either technical or archaeologi cal: it is not even wholly aesthetic; it is rather a showing forth of a deeper consciousness of the eternal and indispensable na ture of the Christian religion itself, of the part it must play in the building up of a new civilization, and of the fact that if it is to do this, it must be, in a measure at least, through the agency of a sane and beautiful art.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Essay on the History of English Church Architecture Prior to the Separation of England From the Roman Obedience It is no matter of accident that churches were built in a certain form and in a certain style at a certain date. It is possible to give a reason for this, in every case, and to trace back the cause of any particular fashion of church building, step by step, to the origin of christian art, which is one with the origin of the christian Church.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The What How and Why of Church Building: Come Now Let Us Reason Together Thus being cognizant of the causes and demands which have been instrumental in the evolution, and familiar with the various experiments speculative and theoretical which have been made in the development, I also became familiar with the essentials and requirements, and with the various methods and plans for meeting them, and their practicability and advantage under the various conditions when materialized. Thus, in sympathy by nature and association with the movement almost from its first inception, I have been largely influenced by the same motives.
