THE TEMPLES OF JUPITER PANHELLENIUS AT EGINA, AND OF APOLLO EPICURIUS AT BASSÆ, NEAR PHIGALEIA, IN ARCADIA.

By C. R. COCKERELL, Esq.,

Late Professor of Architecture in the Royal Academy, &c., &c., &c.

Mr. Cockerell has bestowed a long life in the study and preparation of this work, and to which he has devoted largely his pecuniary means in its production, it is presented as an object of high and pure art to the admirers of Classical Architecture: and as a further literary elucidation, there is added at the end of the volume the following valuable paper entitled "Memoir on the System of Proportion employed in the Design of the Doric Temples at Phigaleia and Ægina," addressed to C. R. Cockerell, Esq., by William Watkiss Lloyd, Esq.

THE ROYAL NORWEGIAN GOVERNMENT WORK

In Columbus Atlas, folio size, price 31. 108. in extra cloth boards, embellished sides, THE CATHEDRAL OF THRONDHEIM, IN NORWAY.

A limited number of copies exclusively consigned from Christiana to Mr. Weale's care in England, by the Norwegian Government. Text by Professor P. A. MUNCH, drawings by H. E. SCHIRMER, Architect. Thirty-one fine plates, and eighteen vignettes. The text in the Danish and English languages.

The Norwegian clergy consisted chiefly of Englishmen or of Norwegians taught by Englishmen, and who therefore were more strongly attached to the English Church. Nicholas Brekspere, Cardinal-bishop of Albano, an Englishman by birth, arrived in Norway in 1152, where he found an assembly of temporal lords, &c. The episcopal sees in Iceland, Scálaholt, and Hölar, the see of Greenland, that of the Feroer, the Islands of the Orkneys, with Shetland and of Man, with the Sudreys or Western Islands, &c. The first glance at the several parts of the church is enough to show that while the nave, now in ruins, and the chancel, with the octangular Lady Chapel, belong to the period of the first pointed style, both transepts, on the contrary, bear all the characteristic marks of the Anglo-Norman style from about 1160, nearly the time when Augustine succeeded; we find also the style of the 13th century, viz., the early English or first pointed style.

This cathedral is particularly interesting to England, both architecturally and historically, by the close intimacy with this country and Norway in religion and in kindred of blood; parts of Scotland, and the north and north-east of England have a common origin, and the united spirit of ancestry is manifested at the present time in the enterprise of science and arms of the Western World.

The Cathedral of Throndheim is the most interesting ecclesiastical structure now existing in Norway, not only on account of its remains of ancient splendour, and its rich historical associations, but particularly because, previous to the introduction of Protestantism, it was the metropolitan church of the kingdom, the resting-place of the national saint, and the centre of Christianity in Norway.
