The narratives of Gothic stained glass

Meer over het boek

In The Narratives of Gothic Stained Glass, Wolfgang Kemp examines stained glass painting of Early and High Gothic France and England from a variety of perspectives. Examining narrative structure and themes, authors and donors, Kemp compares these works to epic forms and themes in literature. The first study of stained glass from a narratological standpoint, Kemp's groundbreaking work also relates these paintings to their immediate architectural contexts.
