Definitions and Explanations of the Romanesque Style in Architecture from the 1960s to the Present Day
The early history of definitions of the Romanesque style in architecture has been recounted a number of times, most notably in the concise and authoritative analysis by Tina Waldeier Bizzarro of 1992. Arguably the two most important steps in this history were, first, in 1813, the adoption of the term Romanesque for architecture in Western Europe from the fourth century to the twelfth, and, subsequently during the nineteenth century, the restriction of the label to the short Romanesque of the eleventh and twelfth centuries still current today. Another social structure relevant to the Romanesque style is that of the church. It seems likely that the best explanation for the emergence of the short Romanesque style from the ninth century to the eleventh includes elements of all four of the categories discussed (social structures, patrons, masons, sources), perhaps with the masons as the most important.
