CONSTRUCTION OF MAN MEDIEVAL AND BUILDINGS IN STONE

From Notre Dame - PARIS - Medieval man can , with the stone , perpetuate their faith in monuments of magnitude and beauty, touching the infinite and expressing what is more within the human experiment 
Sanctuary of Our Lady Mother of Men (Notre Dame in Portuguese) a late Gothic and simple in the Cerrado of Caraça - Catas Altas-MG, Brazil 
                                    
                                 
Stained glass windows of Notre Dame de Reims - Light intimate contemplation, reading the Bible through the eyes of the illiterate medieval man
CONSTRUCTION OF MAN MEDIEVAL AND BUILDINGS IN STONE


" Constructio hominis , constructio lapidum . "

Labor in the stone , under the sweat of his brow , dignity arises, in the work of construction of social being .
Man builds , it builds structure and also works as a medieval cathedral . This reflects in its structure , the face and the ideas of his time .
In its holistic terms , understanding the whole person , involves the understanding of time and space integrated , when we study the construction of medieval thought and works like cathedrals , symbol of the Divine , planted in the ground plane and its towers pointing to infinity .
The medieval mind is based on the subjective and the spiritual . Indelible marks in contemporary, when the desire to build conspires with the vision of the beautiful, medieval man can , with the stone , perpetuate their faith in monuments of magnitude and beauty, touching the infinite and expressing what is more , in the experiment human .
The construction of a cathedral reflects the tensions and conflicts of the ideas of his time . Paradoxes , violent contrasts , botaréis floating columns that rise to the heavens.
The face reflected in the medieval stone cathedral, virtue and sin , sensuality and purity , reason and faith .
Contrasts , oppression , finitude and grandeur in the same space and time ,
in " edificare " of a medieval cathedral.
