Abstract
report in the Medieval Cahiers de Cahiers de civilisation medieval, year 60, No 238 The title of the book sounds as a summary, the subtitle as a pleading: this “for” perfectly corresponds to the approach consistently followed by A. for many years. A similar duality can be found in the articulation: on the pages of the main text, broken down into thematic and chronological chapters, there is a section entitled ‘La Landscape des cryptes in France’, which contains some 370 short entries broken down by region and department. The unit is less apparent from the ratio between synthesis and monographs than from the quality of the illustration; colourful archaeological plans of great readability and sections complement Jean-François Amelot’s photographic corpus of architecture equal to its sensitivity to sculpture.
