Abbot Suger Bücher

This revised edition incorporates the additions and corrections recorded by Erwin Panofsky until the time of his death in 1968. Gerda Panofsky-Soergel has updated the commentary in the light of new material, and the bibliography that she has prepared reflects the scholarship on St.-Denis in the last three decades. She has obtained some additional and more recent photographs, and the illustrations include a new ground plan and a new section of the chevet of the Abbey Church, both drawn under the supervision of Sumner McKnight Crosby.

This work is a faithful reproduction of a text published before 1920, part of a collection of reprinted books initiated by Hachette Livre in partnership with the Bibliothèque nationale de France. It provides access to ancient and often rare works from the BnF's heritage collections. The collection features digitized works available on Gallica, the library's digital platform. By reviving these texts through on-demand reprints, the initiative aims to reach a wider audience and facilitate the transmission of knowledge that may be difficult to access. Efforts have been made to ensure a faithful reproduction of the original book while prioritizing optimal reading comfort. The hope is that this new collection will fully satisfy readers.
