""Three Lectures on Architecture in England: From the Earliest to the Present Time"" is a book written by Henry Rose and first published in 1843. The book is a collection of three lectures delivered by the author on the history of architecture in England. The lectures cover the period from the earliest times to the present day, and provide a comprehensive overview of the various architectural styles that have been prevalent in England throughout history.In the first lecture, Rose discusses the architecture of the ancient Britons, Romans, and Saxons, and how these styles influenced later architectural movements in England. He also provides an overview of the architecture of the Norman Conquest, including the construction of castles and cathedrals.The second lecture focuses on the Gothic style of architecture, which was prevalent in England from the 12th to the 16th centuries. Rose discusses the development of Gothic architecture, including the use of pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses. He also provides examples of notable Gothic buildings in England, such as Westminster Abbey and Canterbury Cathedral.The third lecture covers the architecture of the Renaissance and Baroque periods, as well as the Neoclassical style that emerged in the 18th century. Rose discusses the influence of Italian Renaissance architecture on English design, and provides examples of notable buildings from this period, such as Inigo Jones' Banqueting House in Whitehall.Overall, ""Three Lectures on Architecture in England"" provides a comprehensive overview of the history of English architecture, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor
The following Lectures were read at Northampton, before theS ociety for theD iffusion of Religious and Usefiil Knowledge. Being quite elementary, the descriptions are short, and the illustrations few, in outline only, and confined almost entirely to the most prominent and peculiar features of the various styles of Architecture which have prevailed in England from the earliest to the present times. The world abounds with illustrated works upon the subject; and, among others, theO xford Glossary and companion to it, may be mentioned as forming the most complete picture of the Architecture of our own country, from the first down to theE lizabethan age, that has appeared in modem times, and within the compass of three small volumes. To that excellent work the following Lectures, which contain more of the history than the description of A rchitecture, may be found useful as an I ntroduction.
