Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

In the discussion of architecture, there is a prevailing sentiment that, since 1968, cultural production in its traditional sense can no longer be understood to rise spontaneously, as a matter of social course, but must now be constructed through ever more self-conscious theoretical procedures. The development of interpretive modes of various stripes - post-structuralist, Marxian, phenomenological, psychoanalytic, as well as others dissenting or eccentric - has given scholars a range of tools for rethinking architecture in relation to other fields, and for reasserting architecture's general importance in intellectual discourse. This anthology presents 47 of the primary texts of architecture theory, introducing each with an explication of the concepts and categories necessary for its understanding and evaluation. It also presents 12 documents of projects or events that had major theoretical repercussions for the period. Contributors to this anthology include: Diana Agrest; George Baird; Jean-Louis Cohen; Jacques Derrida; Michel Foucault; Kenneth Frampton; Catherine Ingraham; Jeffrey Kipnis; Daniel Libeskind; Aldo Rossi; Denise Scott Brown; Jorge Silvetti; Martin Steinmann; Georges Teyssot; and Mark Wigley.
