Add to basketpaperback. Condition: Very Good. DETAILS: square PAPERBACK, very good copy but lower outer corner of pages is bruised and dented. ROWE, PETER G. / KUAN, SENG. Architectural encounters with essence and form in modern China. Cambridge, Mass: MIT Press, 2002, 287pp., . "Built around snatches of discussion overheard in a Beijing des…ign studio, this book explores attitudes toward architecture in China since the opening of the Treaty Ports in the 1840s. Central to the discussion are the concepts of ti and yong, or "essence" and "form," Chinese characters that are used to define the proper arrangement of what should be considered modern and essentially Chinese. Ti and yong have gone through various transformations - for example, from "Chinese learning for essential principles and Western learning for practical application" to "socialist essence and cultural form" and an almost complete reversal to "modern essence and Chinese form." - CONTENTS: Traditionalism versus modernism in China -- Foreign influences and the first generation of Chinese architects -- Four architectural attitudes toward modernization -- The "big roof" controversy -- Struggles with modernism -- The "culture fever" -- A commodification and internationalization of architecture -- Modernization in China -- Appendix A. Profiles of selected Chinese architects and schools -- Appendix B. Glossary of terms. 9780262681513 ISBN 026268151X.
