• Summary:In ten essays, leading established and emerging scholars reassess the nature, significance and context of the Decorated style in English Gothic architecture. Thirty-Five years after the publication of Jean Bony's seminal work on the so-called Decorated style of English architecture ('The English Decorated Style: Gothic Architecture Transformed', 1979), this volume brings together a selection of groundbreaking essays by the most promising emerging scholars of English medieval architecture, together with contributions by two of the leading established authorities on the subject: Nicola Coldstream ('The Decorated Style: Architecture and Ornament, 1240-1360', 1994) and Paul Binski ('Gothic Wonder: Art, Artifice, and the Decorated Style, 1290-1350', 2014). The contributors revisit Bony's work and reassess the scholarly legacy of the past three-and-a-half decades. Drawing on a range of innovative methodologies, they then present exciting new insights into the nature and significance of English architecture in the period, focusing particularly on its broader European context.
