Cathedrals and workers

>>2447587

WE CURRENTLY DO NOT KNOW; IT IS UNCERTAIN HOW THEY WERE EVEN BUILT.

The experience of the common man is generally something that isn't well understood, since historically most people were illiterate.

>Imagine building something that you will not see finished. Neither your sons or your grandsons. This applies for kings and for peasants...why not hesiating?
Who would've cared? It paid well and they were glorifying God

that's the most retarded thing I've ever heard, there are still cathedrals being built today

He's a Mexican, anything more complex than a straw hut is too magical for him to grasp.

BUT NOT IN THE SAME MANNER, AND METHODOLOGY, AS WITH PREMODERN CATHEDRALS.

CONTEMPORARY CATHEDRALS ARE MERE IMITATIONS; CURRENT ARCHITECTURAL, AND ENGINEERING, TECHNIQUES ARE APPLIED TO PREMODERN STYLES.

ALSO, IT IS EXTREMELY IMPROBABLE THAT PREMODERN CATHEDRALS TOOK CENTURIES TO BUILD, SINCE THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY WERE BUILT, AS CAN BE APPRECIATED ON THE STRUCTURES THEMSELVES, INDICATES THAT THEY WERE BUILT IN A RELATIVELY SHORT TIMESPAN, NOT IN CENTURIES; THE NOTION THAT THEY TOOK CENTURIES TO BUILD, IN ITSELF, IS RIDICULOUS.

You, your son, your grandson, and your great-grandson would all work on it and die before it was finished.
