NOTE: CORRIGENDA AND ERRATA
CORRIGENDA: Reference to north orientation of certain illustrations (i.e., to
the reader's left or right, or above or below the illustration cited) is made
assuming that the book is being held in normal reading position and not
broadside.
ERRATA: These are entered only when such items, were they allowed to pass
unnoted, would convey confusion or incorrect information.
Owing to considerations related to printing schedule, we presently hold no
errata notations for Volume III, but we do not therefore imagine that unlike
the first two, it may be perfect.

‡ During and subsequent to the completion of printing Volume III, and in the
interval between binding and publication, a cursory reading of press sheets revealed
several errors which have been collected and printed in the above addendum, for
inclusion with the Corrigenda and Errata printed on pages 264-65. By this date
errors besides those printed have been uncovered and no doubt readers will
discover others. Should a second printing ever be produced it is contemplated
that pages with errors would be printed from new corrected plates with appropriate
textual corrections.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTE, FIG. 514
This illustration was developed long after studies for these volumes were under
way, and at a point when the authors became curious concerning how the red
trace of the parchment plan of Gozbertus would appear if it were delineated on a
modern cadastral plan in the area of the present great Baroque church at St. Gall,
with both plans shown at the same scale.
A drawing of the cadastral plan, shown in buff color, was made‡ at scale 1/64 in. =
1 ft. (1:768), convenient for drafting and which, reduced by one half to 1:1536,
composed nicely at book page size. Furthermore, the scale, 1:768, one fourth of
the size of the Plan (1:192), had been used for much other documentation previously
for this work, and facilitated procedure in technical preparation. Next, a photographic
print of the red outline plan was made on transparent film ("film positive")
precisely to the scale of the cadastral plan drawing. This permitted the image
made on transparent film to be positioned in exact register visually with the
cadastral plan drawing beneath it, the axes of the two churches coinciding and
with the tomb of St. Gall superimposed over the altar of the Baroque church
(marked by cross printed in buff color).
The graphic inquiry revealed impressive visual relationships of planning layout,
and although the study was pursued objectively without anticipation or expectation
of any particular kind, still there were surprises. Further discussion is not appropriate
in this brief note. However, one condition is mentioned here, since at the
scale of fig. 514 it is not in full evidence: where a line (N—S) between the centers
of the middle bays of the nave arcade§ intersects the axis common to both churches
(E—W), it marks a point that appears to define the geometric center of the circular
curve of the bulking form of the Baroque church that is one of its distinguishing
architectural features.
No inference is drawn from this observation, but it does not seem reasonable to
assume that so many conditions and relationships as can be seen in fig. 514 are
all merely accidental coincidences inherent in a drafting exercise of combining two
images at identical scale.
