Gothic cathedrals as a (cid:862)gesa(cid:373)tku(cid:374)stwerk(cid:863) (cid:894)total work of art(cid:895) Spatial zoning and access to the sacred: portals; choir screens; divisions by social/clerical level and ender: durham cathedral. To have multiple relics and common pieves: monasteries and abbeys. Also, the vision of and access to the sacred (outwater, the raising of lazarus) We have neutralized/democratized the cathedrals now: the intetration of old and new: an obsession with tradition, the choir screen at st-denis. Creates a sense of secrecy: the royal necropolis. Thorns and other relics of the passion: at chartres, 172 windows survive of the original 186. Windows with the coat of arms of the counts of dreux. E. g. at the north transept rose and lancets. Patronized by blanche of castille and dedicated to st. anne and the virgin c. 1227+ At the same time that this is going on there is a plan of the stained glass windows: tripoartite division repeated in the south transept, and in the apse windows.
