medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear Crisinta,
There is a volume, which I haven't looked at in years, celebrating the 800th anniversary of the founding of NDP. It has some wonderful materials on the pre-1163 church, and would be the first place I would go. Here is the Worldcat entry:
Huitième centenaire de Notre-Dame de Paris (Congrès
des 30 mai-3 juin 1964) Recueil de travaux sur l'histoire de la cathédrale et
de l'église de Paris. Publisher:
Paris, J. Vrin, 1967. Bibliothèque
de la société d'histoire ecclésiastique de la France
This, and it's bibliography, will give you what you want for before 1967
I would also look at an article Caroline Bruzelius did in JAH (if I remember, may the art bulletin), and Stephen Murray did a piece on the flying buttresses. Both with have very good bibliography.

Allan Temko's _Notre-Dame of Paris_ is very old but still a very good read. It is billed as a biography of the cathedral, an accurate description. This obituary of Mr. Temko includes some info on the book:As I recall, Paris - or Lutetia - began with three con-cathedrals: St-Étienne, N-D and one other. After the Huns (or others of their ilk) finished destroying the city, the decision was taken to rebuild one cathedral and dedicate it to N-D.I could scan and send Temko's bibliography off-list if you wish.MG

Dear All,
Could you possibly recommend any bibliography on the Romancesque Notre
Dame of Paris? I am interested in its architecture as well as in the
every-day life of the cathedral and its school in the first half of the
twelfth century.
Very best,
Cristina
