János Porcsalmy GOTHIC AND RENAISSANCE ARCHITECTURE IN MUSEUM WORKSHOPS FOR CHILDREN The author, himself a retired secondary-school teacher, worked out a methodology of teaching the history of architecture. His methodology relies on the technical facilities of the past, but as far as subject matter is concerned, it contains lasting and usable information. The various styles of architecture are introduced in a dialogue form. The author lists the names ofthe buildings that best represent the features of a given style. The texts come complete with a list of recommended pictures and some photos attached to the study, richly illustrating the characteristics of Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The treatment ofthe subject is made easier by a worksheet and a detailed list of recommended pictures and literature.
