Tom Bree – Pyramid Geometry in Gothic Cathedral Design
Why the fascination with the Great Pyramid?
The Great Pyramid is one of the most famous pieces of architecture in the world. It holds a very significant place within the occultist and new age ideas of more recent centuries. But when did this fascination with the Great Pyramid first reach western Europe? This talk will look at one possible answer to such a question in relation to the use of pyramid geometry in 12th century Gothic cathedral design. It will also address the question of where medieval Christendom gained such knowledge from and whether it pre-dates the development of Christianity in the British Isles.
