Sacred Architecture

As an architect, I found this book a fascinating launch pad for further research into the symbolism and mythologies that went in to the making of so much of the World's great architecture. As a primer, this book takes us from the mythic nature of ancient architectural symbolism through the memory theater of the middle ages and into the Jungian understanding of symbols and forms. I enjoyed the initiation into hidden truths concealed within buildings and now my travel plans are slowly converging with places descibed in ths book.
