Symbol at your Door : Number and Geometry in the Religious Architecture of the Greek and Latin Middle Ages, Hardcover by Hiscock, Nigel, ISBN 0754663000, ISBN-13 9780754663003, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Is the display of number and geometry in medieval religious architecture evidence of intended symbolism? This book offers a new perspective in the retrieval of meaning from architecture in the Greek East and the Latin West, and challenges the view that the presence of number and geometry was merely an outcome of practical procedures by masons. Instead, it attributes intellectual meaning to it as understood by Christian Platonist thought and provides compelling evidence that the symbolism was often intended.
