The text of this volume comprises the Chichele Lectures of 1986 on the architectural history of All Souls College. Beginning with a discussion of the college's foundation by Archbishop Chichele in 1438 and the construction of the original medieval buildings, Howard Colvin lays considerablestress on the model afforded by the earlier foundation of New College. He goes on to consider the college's neo-gothic expansion in the early eighteenth century, and the great building work of Nicholas Hawksmoor. Finally, John Simmons discusses the changes that occurred in the eighteenth andnineteenth centuries, and looks in particular at the alterations to the chapel made by Gilbert Scott in the 1870s. This first architectural history of one of Oxford's most famous colleges is lavishly illustrated throughout, and contains several appendices.
