This lecture by Edward Tingley was part of our 2013 Summer conference: The Roots of Medicine | Module IV - The Late Middle Ages.
Chartres Cathedral, south of Paris, is revered as one of the most beautiful and profound works of art in the Western canon. But what did it mean to those who constructed it in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries-and why was it built at such immense height and with such glorious play of light, in the soaring manner we now call Gothic?
