Summary "Dictionnaire raisonné de l'architecture française du XIe au XVIe siècle" by M. Viollet-le-Duc is a comprehensive reference work on architectural terminology and history written during the 19th century. The text serves as an extensive dictionary that details various architectural elements from the medieval to the Renaissance periods in France, covering definitions, historical context, and significant nuances in architectural practices and techniques. At the start of this encyclopedia, the reader is introduced to specific terms and concepts associated with French architecture, such as "tabernacle," describing its use within religious spaces, and "taille," explaining the techniques and craftsmanship involved in shaping stone. The author delves into the evolution of these concepts, illuminating how architectural styles developed over time and reflecting the cultural and artistic shifts that influenced them. The opening portion lays a foundational understanding of how architectural practices were employed from the medieval period onward, providing insights into both the technical aspects of construction and the aesthetic values of the time.
