9780393007343: The Architecture of Humanism; A Study in the History of Taste.

Synopsis

Reissued in a new format, with a new introductory essay by Paul Barolsky (University of Virginia) and an expanded portfolio of illustrations compiled by Henry Hope Reed, who wrote the foreword to the book when it was reprinted more than a quarter-century ago, The Architecture of Humanism remains, as Barolsky writes, "one of the classics in the modern literature on architecture." It is recommended reading for all students of architecture and art history, and essential for everyone interested in the revival of classical architecture.

Review

A new edition of this minor classic of architectural criticism is welcome not only because it is still worth reading but also because it is so apposite, for the architectural situation a hundred years ago was similar to our own. . . .In a period such as our own, where architecture is so dominated by conceptual interpretations, by a seemingly endless succession of -isms, it is useful to be reminded that buildings are—or should be— made to be experienced and enjoyed. — Witold Rybczynski (The New York Review of Books)
