As part of an AHRC project, a team at the University of York created digital models of the major spaces of St Thomas Becket’s cult in Canterbury Cathedral in the early 15th century. This article explains the reasoning behind the choices made in planning and constructing the models, and details much of the underpinning research. The models offer as much, if not more, an argument about the use and experience of space within the cathedral, as they do ‘accurate’ depictions of architecture and furnishings. Focusing particularly on the shrine in the Trinity Chapel, but also explicating the scenes in the Corona, Martyrdom and tomb chapels, the article explores the ways in which access and exclusion, in both physical and sensory terms, shaped the nature of the cult and pilgrimage experience in medieval Canterbury.

在坎特伯雷大教堂中模拟托马斯·贝克特的崇拜

作为AHRC项目的一部分,约克大学的一个团队在15世纪初期在坎特伯雷大教堂(Canterbury Cathedral)创建了圣托马斯·贝克特(St Thomas Becket)崇拜的主要空间的数字模型。本文解释了在计划和构建模型时做出选择的原因,并详细介绍了许多基础研究。这些模型提供了关于大教堂内部空间的使用和体验的更多(甚至更多)论据,因为它们对建筑和家具进行了“准确”的描述。该文章特别关注三位一体教堂中的神社,但同时也对科罗纳教堂,难教堂和陵墓教堂中的场景进行了说明,并探讨了在身体和感官方面进入和排斥的方式如何塑造了邪教和朝圣的性质。中世纪的坎特伯雷经验。
