What reading level is Some Account of Gothic Architecture in Spain volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The la\ish enri(-hment of the capitals, the fine section ' See n. -fcrcRCi- to^this porch at p. I ^i.
LERIDA 143 of the great clustered columns, the severe simplicity of the unmoulded arches, and the extreme boldness of the groining- ribs, all combine to produce this result. Almost all the principal shafts are coupled, and the groining-bays are kept \ery distinct from one another by very bold transverse arches: these, and indeed all the main arches, are pointed. There is no triforium. And but a... small space between the arches into the aisles and the clerestory windows. The canted sides of the central lantern are supported on pendentives similar to those which occur under the angles of some of the early French domes. ^ Above these is an arcaded string-course, and then the windows: these are all double, and of varied tracery. There are monials and traceries nearly flush with both the internal and external face of the wall: this was a necessary arrangement for a work which was to be seen so entirely from below, where the external traceries would all have been lost to the view.
