| | Synopsis
|
Carved from a hundred million pounds of stone, soaring effortlessly
atop a spider web of masonry, Gothic cathedrals are marvels of human
achievement and artistry. But how did medieval builders reach such
spectacular heights? On this dazzling journey inside the jewels of
Gothic architecture, NOVA reveals the hidden formulas, drawn from the
pages of the Bible itself, that drove medieval builders ever upward.
