About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1910 Excerpt: ...any great change.1 Even if this was the case, yet Petrie's change of view, as definitely stated by himself, tears a great gap out of his argument. For the chancel of the Cathedral, the 'Priest's House, ' and the chancel arch of St. Saviour's, all at Glendalough, and expressly attributed to St. Laurence towards proving it, though he shews--what in all probability no one would now dispute--that churches having apparently Norman characteristics were built in Ireland before the English invasion. 1 William Stokes, The Life and Labours in Art and Archceology of George Petrie, pp. 182, 184.

O'Toole in the letter, are in the Ecclesiastical Architecture classed among the pre-Norman Irish Romanesque buildings. This plainly suggests that the distinction made by Petrie between the two styles of building does not in fact exist. If St. Saviour's chancel arch and the other buildings shewing a mixture of Norman with Irish ideas (zigzag and scallop combined with elaborate key-pattern, spiral ornaments, and so on) are of XII century date, there seems to be no reason why other work which shews a similar combination in varying proportions (for instance, at Timahoe and at Rahan) should not also be indebted to Norman architecture. And this intermixture prevails, I believe, in all the churches in question. The words which Petrie uses in describing some of these buildings appear to form an excellent description of the style generally. Owing perhaps to Dr. Petrie's change of view, a modified theory has more recently been advocated by Miss Stokes. In the appendix to Lord Dunraven's Notes on Irish Architecture (vol. ii, p. 189), s..
