Édifiée par l'abbé Suger au XIIe siècle sur l'emplacement de l'édifice conçu pour abriter la dépouille de saint Denis, et achevée sous le règne de Saint Louis au XIIIe siècle, la basilique Saint-Denis est le premier chef-d'oeuvre monumental de l'art gothique. Église puissante d'une abbaye, dotée d'un trésor considérable, elle fut un important lieu de pèlerinage au Moyen Âge. Marquée par les vicissitudes de l'histoire, pillée et profanée à la Révolution, elle a retrouvé une partie de sa splendeur passée au XIXe siècle, lors des grands travaux de restauration menés par Jacques Cellerier, François Debret puis Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. Nécropole royale dès les dynasties mérovingienne et carolingienne, la basilique abrite une collection unique en Europe, constituée de plus de soixante-dix gisants et tombeaux du XIIe au XVIe siècle, de Dagobert 1er à Louis XVI. Depuis la fondation de la basilique primitive jusqu'à nos jours, cet ouvrage retrace son histoire et nous propose une étude approfondie de son architecture, ses étapes de construction, sa nécropole royale, ses vitraux des XIIe et XIXe siècles et ses somptueux trésors en grande partie dispersés. Illustré par une riche iconographie ancienne et par un reportage photographique qui témoigne notamment des derniers travaux de restauration, il nous propose de découvrir ou redécouvrir un monument majeur, à la fois église paroissiale, siège épiscopal et lieu culturel national.

Regarded as the first work of Gothic art, St-Denis experienced an outburst of artistic creativity under the direction of Abbot Suger (1122- 1151). Although scholars have traditionally seen the monastery as an embodiment of Pseudo-Dionysian light mysticism and the anagogical function of art, they have never resolved the contradiction between Suger's recognized lack of innovation and systematic arrangement in his writings and the highly original, organized character of his art program. Here Conrad Rudolph reanalyzes the evidence of Pseudo-Dionysian influence and Suger's direct role in the program by focusing on the increasing social pressures of artistic asceticism--which claimed that art was a distraction to the monk and was only to be used for instruction of the spiritually illiterate. Rudolph shows that Suger's attempt at a middle ground reform in which art was justified as a spiritual aid to the litteratus or choir monk explains the obscurity, theological complexity, and use of allegory found throughout the program, especially in the famous windows of the east end. With the help of Hugh of St-Victor, an outside adviser, Suger based his defense of monastic art on Augustinian exegetical thought and ultimately fell back upon art's traditional meditative, not anagogical, function. Examining Suger's writings, Rudolph argues that it was not Pseudo-Dionysian but rather Augustinian influence that led to the creation of Gothic architecture.
