A detailed archeological chronology of the Santiago de Compostela cathedral from its beginnings in 813. Contents include: Cronologia General; Evolucion (Siglos XIII - XIX); Situacion Actual (Siglo XIX); La catedral en su entorno; La cruz latina; Segunda parte (Siglo XIII); Proyectos de ampliacion; Defensas de la catedral; Las TRANSFORMACIONES orientales; Campanas de embellecimiento; El claustro nuevo; Consolidacion (Desplegable); La plaza del Obradoiro (Siglos XVI. "Desplegable"); Espacio de platerias; El tesoro; El esconce; El barroco; El informe Vega y Verdugo; La torre del reloj; Las campanas; La quintana; El obradoiro; Azabacheria. [From Prologo] Han transcurrido ahora diez anos desde la aparicion de la primera parte de esta construccion grafica acerca de la Catedral de Santiago. Una importante labor de recopilacion de datos y "el dia a dia" de la vida del Autor y sus obligaciones, han separado durante tanto tiempo la primera parte: "Los origenes de Compostela", de esta segunda que ahora presentamos con el titulo de : "La Catedral del fin del mundo". Tratandose en ambos casos de una historia grafica o dibujada, no pareceria necesario anadir nada mas a la pretenciosa elocuencia de las imagenes con que la historia se reconstruye, pero no es ese muestro criterio, si se nos admite una cierta autoridad que nos confiere el estudio continuado a lo largo de tanto tiempo de un fenomeno social y religioso de tal envergadura temporal. Despues de terminar esta tarea, creernos poder subrayar la insuficiencia implicita que conlleva el hecho de narrar en imagenes, aun basadas en las investigaciones mas rigurosas, un discurso arquitectonico tan singular y pertinaz. . .
