About this book

Modern Architectural Theory: A Historical Survey, 1673–1968 by Mallgrave, Harry Francis. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521130486.

Harry Mallgraves comprehensive survey of architectural theory, primarily in Europe and the United States, contextualizes architectural discourse within its social and political atmosphere over three centuries of development. He explores the philosophical and conceptual evolution of its ideas, the relation of theory to the practice of building, and, most importantly, the words of the architects themselves as they contentiously shaped their particular niche of Western civilization over time.
