Synopsis

Panofsky's famous pamphlet is one of the most important works of spiritual history (conceptual history) in the West of the 20th century, and an exciting expedition across the history of art and the history of ideas, the main theme of which is to explore the interrelationship between Gothic architecture and scholasticism. In an article in tribute to Pan, Gombrich pointed out: "The connection between ideas and images, philosophy and style, is a difficult problem, far beyond the boundaries of iconography. Solving this problem is Pan's lifelong pursuit, and it is also the starting point for his creation of modern iconography.

In this book, Pan compares the Gothic architecture of the heyday of the Middle Ages with the scholastic philosophy of the same period to show that both Gothic architecture and scholasticism created similar stylistic features under the control of a common "spiritual habit". The book was widely received upon publication, and his adventures were refreshing to show off, especially for art historians and architectural historians.
