In this interview, Anna (Ph.D student) talks about her research into the construction and function of late medieval cathedrals in Central Europe. Her research focusses on the eastern end of the cathedral and how the design and use of the space reflected the contemporary society. Anna also discusses how the concepts used in the design of these ancient buildings are relevant to the design of buildings and public spaces today.
This podcast is part of the ‘New Faces, New Ideas’ series in which Ph.D students in the Department of Medieval Studies talk about their current research and future ambitions.
