I don't know what term is suggested to replace "Gothic." Guess I'll have to check out Gesta 39. In Suger's time, "Gothic" was simply "opus francigenum." I'd call it "ogival," or something like that although "Gothic" is so entrenched, it would be difficult to root it out, I suspect. If a word works, why bother?


Malcolm at Chartres calls it Capetian.
