Add to baskethardcover. Condition: very good. Copenhagen, Gads 1937 & 1945 Folio publisher's half gilt vellum; numerous photo ills, plans & measured drawings (a couple folding, four folding plans in the pocket at end). The blue paper on the front faded as happens if the book sees daylight for more than a few minutes. [and] Octavo publisher's… cloth backed boards; colour extra title, 183pp, photo illustrations, plans. Original and best edition by miles. One of the great scholarly studies in architecture in which Prip-Moller's modesty of style and scrupulous research, devoted to setting exact measurement of the material with historical documentation and spiritual purpose, is set in a scrupulous and stylish design, producing a large and solid book outwardly very elegant and inwardly complex, almost the embodiment of its subject. "A monumental work which, in its own sphere, has no rival at the present time, and is hardly likely to encounter one in the future." (Gosta Montell in 'Geografisk Tidsskrift', b.42; 1939). Prip-Moller preached this intensity of purpose, function and meaning in his architectural polemic and practised it in his own buildings, the best known now is probably the Christian church he designed for Reichelt in Hong Kong in 1930, and his direct influence doesn't pass unnoticed in buildings like Utzon's Bagsvaerd Church. The second book here is a companion produced to match, on a smaller scale, not published in English as far as I know. This is his personal account of travels in China gathering materials for his monster book. *This item might cost more to post than quoted by abe.

It has and always will be exceptionally R A R E ! . * Considered a scholarly and reliable work on the subject with detailed architectural drawings & stunning photographic illustrations. . *** THE AUTHOR: Prip-Moller [1889-1943] first came to China in 1921, and after studying Chinese in Peking worked in Mukden [Manchuria], as a consulting architect. The present work is the result of extensive researches undertaken between 1929 and 1933 and was first published in Copenhagen in 1937. . * THE FIRST EDITION: The First Edition has always been the most desirable and Deluxe edition of the book. The reprints do not compare with the lovely typography, paper and meticulous binding of this edition ! . * BINDING: The original First Edition was bound in genuine white vellum spine with gold lettering, and four matching vellum corners. The balance of the book was bound in heavy green boards, which are easily rubbed. Our copy is in "collector's condition" with no major rubbing, a few nearly invisible scuffs to the covers, else a sharp clean and lovely copy of a very RARE EDITION of this title. . *** Color photos are posted to our website. . *.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Der dänische Architekt Johannes Prip-Møller war fünf Jahre im nordchinesischen Shenyang tätig. Während dieser Zeit lernte er die chinesische Kultur und die Architektur, besonders der Tempel, wertschätzen. Mit einem Forschungsauftrag ausges…tattet bereiste er über drei Jahre China. Das Ergebnis ist die vorliegende Studie typischer buddhistischer Tempelanlagen.Der Bericht, von Henry Lohner übersetzt, gliedert sich drei Teile. Zuerst werden die architektonischen Aspekte der einzelnen Bauten eines 'idealen' chinesischen buddhistischen Tempels anhand einer Vielzahl von Beispielen beschrieben. Im zweiten Abschnitt wird der in Form einer Lotusblüte angelegte Longchansi bei Nanking in allen Einzelheiten betrachtet. Abschließend folgt die detaillierte Beschreibung einer buddhistischen Ordinationszeremonie mit ihren drei Stufen. Dazu kommt die Schilderung des Alltagslebens buddhistischer Mönche in China. Ebenfalls mit enthalten sind mehrere kleinere Studien zum Bau christlicher Kirchen in China, zuvorderst die Untersuchung der Ruine einer von Franziskanern im frühen vierzehnten Jahrhundert errichteten Kathedrale.Stark erweitert und vertieft wird Prip-Møllers Arbeit durch die erklärenden Kapitel Henry Lohners, die grundlegende Konzepte und Persönlichkeiten des chinesischen Buddhismus beschreiben. Die Geschichte der einzelnen untersuchten Tempel, über einhundert, wird fortgeschrieben. Ein umfangreiches Literaturverzeichnis deckt nicht nur den chinesischen Buddhismus und seine Architektur, sondern auch die wirtschaftliche und politische Entwicklung des Landes seit Ende des Kaiserreichs 1912 ab. 472 pp. Deutsch.
