Finally, by drawing comparisons between gothic cathedrals and other monumental building projects, such as stonehenge, scott expands our understanding of the human impulses that shape our landscapeoxfam bookshop brighton the great gothic cathedrals of europe are among the most astonishing achievements of western culturethis engrossing book surveys an era that has fired the historical imagination for centuriesscott explores why medieval people built gothic cathedrals, how they built them, what conception of the divine lay behind their creation, and how religious and secular leaders used cathedrals for social and political purposesthe author describes the difficulties master-builders faced in scheduling construction that wouldn't be completed during their own lifetimes, how they managed without adequate numeric systems or paper on which to make detailed drawings, and how climate, natural disasters, wars, variations in the hours of daylight throughout the year, and the celebration of holy days affected the pace and timing of worksee oxfam website for delivery information read moreevoking feelings of awe and humility, they make us want to understand what inspired the people who had the audacity to build themscott also explains such things as the role of relics, the quarrying and transporting of stone, and the incessant conflict cathedral-building projects caused within their communitiesas a traveller's companion or a rich source of knowledge for the armchair enthusiast, the gothic enterprise helps us understand how ordinary people managed such tremendous feats of physical and creative energy at a time when technology was rudimentary, famine and disease were rampant, the climate was often harsh, and communal life was unstable and incessantly violentwhile most books about gothic cathedrals focus on a particular building or on the cathedrals of a specific region, the gothic enterprise considers the idea of the cathedral as a humanly created spacescott's narrative offers a wealth of fascinating details concerning daily life during medieval timesscott discusses why an impoverished people would commit so many social and personal resources to building something so physically stupendous and what this says about their ideas of the sacred, especially the vital role they ascribed to the divine as a protector against the dangers of everyday life

Oxfam books & music lancaster from his groundbreaking violence and the sacred and things hidden since the foundation of the world, rené girard's mimetic theory is presented as elucidating "the origins of culture" french philosopher of science michel serres states that girard's theory provides a darwinian theory of culture because it "proposes a dynamic, shows an evolution and gives a universal explanationequally, girard's theory is presented as having the potential to become for the human and social sciences something akin to the integrating framework that present-day biological science owes to darwin-something compatible with it and complementary to it in accounting for the still remarkably little understood phenomenon of human emergence" he posits that archaic religion (or "the sacred"), particularly in its dynamics of sacrifice and ritual, is a neglected and major key to unlocking the enigma of "how we became humansee oxfam website for delivery information read morejoining disciplinary worlds, this book aims to explore this ambitious claim, invoking viewpoints as diverse as evolutionary culture theory, cultural anthropology, archaeology, cognitive psychology, ethology, and philosophythe contributors provide major evidence in favor of girard's hypothesis" this major claim has, however, remained underscrutinized by scholars working on girard's theory, and it is mostly overlooked within the natural and social sciences
