Abstract:

The adoption of gothic architecture by nineteenth-century Episcopalians represents a major shift in the liturgical piety and theological convictions of the denomination. This thesis explores this shift through the ecclesiastical locus of the Diocese of Virginia, tracing the architectural history of Virginia Anglicanism from the colonial period through the nineteenth century.
