Description
"Westminster Abbey is both an appreciation of an architectural masterpiece and an exploration of the building's shifting meanings: we hear the voices of those who have described its forms, moods and ceremonies, from Shakespeare and Voltaire to Dickens and Henry James; we see how rulers have made use of it, from medieval kings to modern prime ministers. In this book, classicist and cultural historian Richard Jenkyns teaches us to look at this microcosm of history with new eyes."--BOOK JACKET.
