Book Description
George S. Phillips' 'A Guide to Peterborough Cathedral' provides readers with a comprehensive history of the monastery from its founding, as well as a detailed account of its architectural features. The cathedral, dedicated to Saint Peter, Saint Paul, and Saint Andrew, boasts a stunning Early English Gothic West Front with three enormous arches, which is without architectural precedent and with no direct successor. Despite extensions and restoration, the cathedral has remained largely intact and is one of the most important 12th-century buildings in England.

A Medieval Book of Magical Stones: The Peterborough Lapidary
Author: Francis Young
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 099264044X
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
A Medieval Book of Magical Stones is the first translation of the longest and most comprehensive medieval English treatise on the occult powers of stones and gems, the Peterborough Lapidary. Lapidaries (encyclopaedias of the 'virtues' of stones and minerals) were an essential resource for practitioners of natural and ritual magic as well as medicine. This late fifteenth-century manuscript from the library of Peterborough Cathedral describes 145 stones, portraying them as living beings whose properties range from giving the bearer the power to command spirits and foretell the future to healing numerous illnesses and communicating with spirits and the dead, along with instructions on how to release latent occult power from within stones. Many of the proposed uses of stones resemble the concerns of medieval necromancers, such as invisibility, love magic, power over animals and the creation of magical mirrors. pp. xliii+106; 2 column text; introduction; bibliography; analytical index; 8 b/w illustrations
