medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Christopher,
At least some of her work can be found in Linda Neagley, Disciplined
Exuberance: The Parish Church of Saint-Maclou and Late Gothic
Architecture in Rouen (Penn. State U.P., 1998).
Further explorations along the same lines can be found in Michael Davis
and Linda Neagley, "Mechanics and Meaning: Plan Design at Saint-Urbain,
Troyes and Saint-Ouen, Rouen," /Gesta/, XXXIX, no. 2 (2000), 161-82.
Cheers,
Jim
