Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Edition. Hardback. An Understanding of Architecture. Previous owners name to inside cover. Slight foxing to end inside covers and edge. Slight shelf wear to edges of D/J. Buildings are the physical signposts of history. Paintings tells us what people looked like, and literature tells us what they thought, but it is architecture that tells what they did and how they lived. Architecture, the author says, can only be enjoyed as an art if it is first understood as a document. How is this interpreted? What is the art of Architecture? What standards of appreciation can we apply? These and many other questions are raised and answered by the authors in a book that will provoke widespread interest. The authors have illustrated the book with their own drawings, showing typical examples of ancient, mediaeval, Palladian and later buildings, including the stylistic revivals of the nineteenth centuy. Here is a concise guide to those who recognise that taste must be founded on knowledge and whose intellectural curiosity is sufficiently aroused to make them ask of older buildings: 'What were their builders trying to build?' and: 'Why did people need such buildings?'. Illustrated. 116 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
