Join us for an amply-illustrated presentation that will delve into the medieval history and Gothic construction of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame of Paris and the reconstruction since the fire of April 2019, with new rediscoveries of lost history and technology, including internal and external restoration viewed by our lecturer in spring 2025 and shared in this lecture.
Patrick Hunt believes the perceived boundaries between academic subjects are too often arbitrary and artificial, and thus explores junctions between many intersecting areas of interest across the broader humanities, sciences, and the arts. Patrick has followed several of his life-long dreams—archaeologist, writer, composer, poet, and art historian—for nearly three decades at Stanford University. Among many other works, he is author of When Empires Clash, Pascal & Voltaire at the Cafe Procope, Hannibal, and Ten Discoveries that Rewrote History.
