Abstract (en)

Offers 12 theses in explanation of the anonymity of Gothic architects, focusing on the building of French cathedrals, 1130-1250. Posits an ideological basis for the condition of anonymity: the cathedral as wonder and the architect (with workshop) as medium. Notes that even though several early 13th c. architects were highly regarded, what is now known of them was recorded retrospectively later in the century, when the concept of the architect as a man of learning and a creative personality began to emerge.
