Extract

On a former occasion I traced the history of St. Hugh from his birth in his father's castle at Avalon, on the borders of Savoy, and a few miles from Grenoble, then in the kingdom of Burgundy, to his death and burial in his choir at Lincoln, then just completed, and, as he died in the year 1200, this marks an important turning-point in the history of architecture, as many authors have observed.
