Architecture New Titles Archaeology and Architecture of the Military Orders
The Architecture Chronicle
New Studies
Jan Kattein, University College London, UK
Tonino Griffero, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy
Edited by Mathias Piana and Christer Carlsson
DESIGN RESEARCH IN ARCHITECTURE
Although the history of the Military Orders has been the subject of research for a long time, their material legacy has attracted less attention. In recent years, however, a vast range of topics concerning the Orders’ building activities were studied, primarily with the help of archaeology. This volume contains ten articles discussing the archaeology and architecture of buildings erected by the three major Military Orders in different geographical regions. They cover most countries of Western Europe and include a number of important fortifications in the Levant. These studies break new ground in the investigation of the built fabric of the Military Orders.
‘Recently in many architectural schools efforts intensified to further develop architectural research. Exciting new avenues are being explored, relying upon the design skills of architects and urban designers, combining them with intellectual rigor and in-depth thinking, in order to imagine new spatialities and to unfold hitherto unknown spatial experiences. This series highlights the innovative results of these explorations, opening up a new world of path-breaking research.’
‘After the pioneering studies by several German philosophers, the notion of atmosphere is currently awaking widening interest around the world. Tonino Griffero presents here a learned, humane and dense survey of the ontology, history and phenomenology of atmospheric perception. Our amazing capacity to grasp complex and integrated sensory and emotive entities could well be named our sixth sense. As Griffero argues, “atmospheric perception is a holistic and emotional being-in-the-world”.’

Architectural Heritage Revisited A Holistic Engagement of its Tangible and Intangible Constituents Ilan Vit-Suzan, Escuela Nacional de Conservación, Restauración y Museografía ‘Manuel del Castillo Negrete’, INAH-UNESCO, Mexico This book argues that we need to recognize the historic monument as a tangible aspect of a holistic expression of culture that is rooted in specific spatio-temporal conditions. However, since the latter are constantly changing, it is vital to identify an implicit contradiction with the goals of conservation. By examining three major heritage monuments –- the Pantheon, Teotihuacan’s Sun Pyramid and Alhambra – the book shows how these sites are the product of multiple strategies and unforeseen agents, accumulated through history.

Atmospheres: Aesthetics of Emotional Spaces
Diary of an Architectural Practice
Hilde Heynen, University of Leuven, Belgium During the last 30 years, technological, social, economic and environmental changes have brought about the most dramatic evolution to architectural practice that has taken place since the profession emerged during the Italian Renaissance. Whilst these changes have transformed the way architects work, few contemporary books discuss architectural practice. The Architecture Chronicle sets out to define the role of the contemporary architect in the light of these changes. It also engages with the design and production process and investigates how design decisions are being made and by whom they are executed.

Artistic Practices and Cultural Transfer in Early Modern Italy
‘This is a magnum opus, in more than one sense of the term. An important work, the product of vast research and dedicated scholarship, Bressani’s biographical study is a timely contribution not only to architectural studies but also to the field of historical culture in general. Through tracing Viollet-le-Duc’s achievement in relation to the broad transition from Romanticism to Modernity, Bressani succeeds in bringing out his wider significance as an artist and thinker, and as a major figure in French Romanticism.’ Stephen Bann, Bristol University, UK The importance of Eugène-Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc (1814–1879) within modern architecture cannot be overstated. Key theoretician of modernism, renowned restoration architect, medieval archaeologist and champion of Gothic revivalism, he also published some of the most influential texts in the history of modern architecture. Martin Bressani expertly traces Viollet-le-Duc’s complex intellectual development, showing how restoration, in all its layered meaning, shaped his outlook. Through his life journey, we follow the route by which the technological subject was born out of nineteenth-century historicism.

Bishop Robert Grosseteste and Lincoln Cathedral
Edited by Nebahat Avcioǵlu, Hunter College, CUNY, USA and Allison Sherman, Queen’s University, Canada
Tracing Relationships between Medieval Concepts of Order and Built Form
Showcasing both the diversity within and the porosity between the ‘centre’ and ‘periphery’ in Renaissance art, this volume explores the material mechanisms for the transmission and evolution of ideas, artistic training and networks, as well as the dynamics of collaboration and exchange between artists, theorists and patrons. The chapters, each with a wealth of groundbreaking research and previously unpublished documentary evidence, as well as innovative methodologies, offer new interpretations of Italian art. 304 pages 978-1-4724-4365-6 £70.00
Edited by Nicholas Temple, University of Huddersfield, UK, John Shannon Hendrix, University of Lincoln, UK and Christian Frost, Birmingham City University, UK ‘A welcome addition to a growing constellation of titles in architectural humanities. This coedited volume of studies offers thought-provoking insights into the architectonic significance of Grosseteste’s intellectual oeuvre in its scholastic mediaeval context. It also advances novel theoretical directives in analyzing the architecture of Lincoln Cathedral under Grosseteste’s Bishopric in its English Gothic milieu.’ Nader El-Bizri, American University of Beirut

Essays in Honour of Deborah Howard
January 2015 Hardback
Eugène-Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc, 1814–1879
This book examines the role of atmospheres in daily life, and defines their main characteristics. Outlining the typical phenomenological situations in which we experience atmospheres, it assesses their impact on contemporary aesthetics. It puts forward a philosophical approach which systematises a constellation of affects and climates, finds patterns in the emotional tones of different spaces (affordances) and assesses their impact on the felt body. It also critically discusses the spatial turn invoked by several of the social sciences, and argues that there is a need for a non-psychologistic rethinking of the philosophy of emotions.

Architecture and the Historical Imagination
Juhani Pallasmaa, Architect and Professor of Architecture emeritus, Finland
The Ashgate Research Companion to Giorgio Vasari Edited by David J. Cast, Bryn Mawr College, USA ‘...brings together an immensely wide-ranging, multi-faceted, and thought-provoking series of essays on a whole range of aspects of the Lives of the Artists. It is bound to prove essential reading for anyone seriously interested in the history of the history of Italian Renaissance art.’ David Ekserdjian, University of Leicester, UK The Ashgate Research Companion to Giorgio Vasari brings together the world’s foremost experts on Vasari as well as up-and-coming scholars to provide, at the 500th anniversary of his birth, a comprehensive assessment of the current state of scholarship on this important – and still controversial – artist and writer. Contributors examine the life and work of Vasari as an artist and architect and as a biographer of artists, and explore his legacy.
Bishop Robert Grosseteste and Lincoln Cathedral is an in-depth investigation of Grosseteste’s relationship to the medieval cathedral at Lincoln and the surrounding city. This book will contribute to the understanding of Gothic architecture in early thirteenth century England – most specifically, how forms and spaces were conceived in relation to the cultural, religious and political life of the period. The essays make an important contribution to our understanding of the relation between architecture, theology, politics and society during the Middle Ages, and how religious spaces were conceived and experienced.

Architecture New Titles Byzantine Images and their Afterlives Essays in Honor of Annemarie Weyl Carr Edited by Lynn Jones, Florida State University, USA The twelve papers written for this volume reflect the wide scope of Annemarie Weyl Carr’s interests and the equally wide impact of her career. They are linked by Carr’s expansive body of work, which ties together issues of patronage, production and influence across the medieval Mediterranean. The volume examines influences in manuscript production and reception, imperial patronage, relics and reliquaries, form and style in Cypriot architecture and icons, and the relationship between original and copy in medieval art.

Camera Constructs Photography, Architecture and the Modern City Edited by Andrew Higgott, University of East London, UK and Timothy Wray
Co-habiting with Ghosts Knowledge, Experience, Belief and the Domestic Uncanny Caron Lipman, Queen Mary, University of London, UK ‘What does it mean to share your home with a ghost? Caron Lipman’s answers to this question are thought-provoking and insightful. Foregrounding people’s own experiences and beliefs in her exploration of the uncertain boundary between material and immaterial geographies, she challenges much current thinking about home and subjectivity in this highly original and beautifully written book.’ Ann Varley, University College London, UK This book sets out to explore the questions posed by the reality of living in a ‘haunted home’ and attends to the ways in which households in England and Wales understand their experience of haunting in relation to ideas of subjectivity, gender, materiality, memory, knowledge and belief. It explores home as a place both dynamic and differentiated, illuminating the complexity of ‘everyday’ experience – the familiarity of the strange as well as the strangeness of the familiar – and the ways in which home continues to be configured as a distinctive space.

Cityscapes in History Creating the Urban Experience Edited by Katrina Gulliver, University of New South Wales, Australia, and Heléna Tóth, Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich, Germany Cityscapes in History: Creating the Urban Experience explores the ways in which scholars from a variety of disciplines – history, history of art, geography and architecture – think about and study the urban environment. Through such an approach it is possible to make fascinating connections between such seemingly diverse topics as 15th-century France and 20th-century United States, thus raising valuable questions about scholarly approaches to urban studies.
1960–2010 Edited by Elie G. Haddad, Lebanese American University, Lebanon and David Rifkind, Florida International University, USA This book provides a comprehensive, critical overview of the developments in architecture from 1960 to 2010. The first section provides a presentation of major movements in architecture after 1960, and the second, a geographic survey that covers a wide range of territories around the world. This book not only reflects the different perspectives of its various authors, but also charts a middle course between the ‘aesthetic’ histories that examine architecture solely in terms of its formal aspects, and the more ‘ideological’ histories that subject it to a critique that often skirts the discussion of its formal aspects.

Much more than a tool of reproduction, photography has allowed the field of architecture to redefine itself in compelling ways.’ History of Photography
A Critical History of Contemporary Architecture
Cosmo Innes and the Defence of Scotland’s Past c. 1825–1875
Adaptations of Early Temple Architecture in South and Southeast Asia Sambit Datta, Curtin University, Australia and David Beynon, Deakin University, Australia
Richard A. Marsden, Cardiff University, UK
DIGITAL RESEARCH IN THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES
‘This is a masterly scholarly monograph that fills an important gap in the literature on Cosmo Innes and Scottish antiquarianism and its long afterlife in the nineteenth century. Situating Innes in an older antiquarian tradition, the author is able to convincingly demonstrate the importance of Innes’ work with primary sources in making him such an accepted authority of Scottish national history. Marsden’s historiographical discussion of Innes and his contextualisation of him in the wider Scottish, British and European scenarios are extremely lucid and helpful.’
‘Datta and Beynon demonstrate the substantial benefits that digital methods can bring to the analysis of architectural and cultural history. Asian scholars will particularly welcome their new insights into old questions about the historical connections between the various South and Southeast Asian polities and the processes of “Indianisation” that are thought to have shaped Southeast Asian cultures.’
Stefan Berger, Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum, Germany The antiquary Cosmo Innes (1798–1874) was a prolific editor of medieval and early modern documents relating to Scotland’s parliament, legal system, burghs, universities, aristocratic families and pre-Reformation church. This book, which analyses Innes’s work and provides sources, opens a window onto the ways in which Scottish identity and ideas about the ‘national past’ were perceived in Scotland during the nineteenth century, a period when union with England was all but unquestioned.

William Logan, Deakin University, Australia This multi-disciplinary study of early archetypal Brahmanic, Hindu and Buddhist temple architectures examines how the styles from Northwest India were adapted as they spread into Southeast Asia. It unravels the specifically compositional and architectural linkages along the trading routes of South and Southeast Asia, and the common themes and influences to be seen in the early temples of Java, Cambodia and Champa. Using digital reconstruction and recovery of three-dimensional temple forms, the authors have developed a digital dataset of early Indian antecedents, tested new technologies for the acquisition of built heritage and developed new methods for comparative analysis of built form geometry.

ASHGATE STUDIES IN ARCHITECTURE Series ediitor: Eamonn Canniffe, Manchester School of Architecture, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK The discipline of Architecture is undergoing subtle transformation as design awareness permeates our visually dominated culture. Technological change, the search for sustainability and debates around the value of place and meaning of the architectural gesture are aspects which will affect the cities we inhabit. This series seeks to address such topics, both theoretically and in practice, through the publication of high quality original research, written and visual.

Twentieth Century Architecture, Pioneer Modernism and the Tropics
Bringing together leading writers and practicing architects including Jean Dethier, David Mayernik, Massimo Scolari, Robert Adam, David Watkin and Leon Krier, this volume provides a kaleidoscopic, multilayered exploration of the Architectural Capriccio. It not only explains the phenomena within a historical context, but moreover, demonstrates its contemporary validity and appropriateness as a holistic design methodology, an inspiring pictorial strategy, an efficient rendering technique and an optimal didactic tool. The book shows and comments on a wide range of historic masterworks and highlights contemporary artists and architects excelling in a modern updated, refreshed and original tradition of the Capriccio.

Architecture in an Age of Uncertainty Edited by Benjamin Flowers, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA After two decades which saw the construction industry flourish, has come a sudden period of instability, where architecture firms have been jettisoning employees at an unprecedented rate as building projects dry up. This edited volume brings together scholars, critics, and architects to discuss the present state of uncertainty in the practice and discipline of architecture. The chapters are organized into three main areas of inquiry: economics, practice, and technology. Within this larger framework, authors explore issues of security, ecological design, disaster architecture, the future of architectural practice, and the ethical obligations of the social practice of design.

‘This fine book fills a significant gap in the history of twentieth-century British architecture. In their absorbing account of the careers of Jane Drew and Maxwell Fry, as individual practitioners, and as a formidable post-war partnership, the authors offer new insights into the evolution of early modernism in Britain, and to the development of new forms of modernism in post-colonial India and Africa. Of particular value is the discussion of Fry and Drew’s early careers. Important too is the fact we now have a detailed study of one of the first generation of women to enjoy a significant career in the British profession; a useful reminder of how much the forms of post-war modernism were shaped by women.’ Elizabeth Darling, Oxford Brookes University, UK This book thoroughly examines Fry and Drew’s highly influential ‘Tropical Architecture’ in West Africa and India, whilst also discussing their British work, such as their post World War II projects for the Festival of Britain, Harlow New Town, Pilkington Brothers’ Headquarters and Coychurch Crematorium. It highlights the collaborative nature of Fry and Drew’s work, including schemes undertaken with Elizabeth Denby, Walter Gropius, Denys Lasdun, Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier. Positioning their architecture, writing and educational endeavours within a wider context, this book illustrates the significant artistic and cultural contributions made by Fry and Drew throughout their lengthy careers.

The Architecture of Luxury Annette Condello, Curtin University, Australia Focusing on various contexts within Western Europe, Latin America and the United States, this book traces the myths and application of luxury within architecture, interiors and designed landscapes. Spanning from antiquity to the modern era, it sets out six historical categories of luxury – and relates these to the built and unbuilt environment, taking different cultural contexts and historical periods into consideration. It studies some of the ethical questions raised by the nature of luxury in architecture and discusses whether architectural luxury is an unqualified benefit or something which should only be present within strict limits.

Architecture New Titles Building the Modern Church Roman Catholic Church Architecture in Britain, 1955 to 1975 Robert Proctor, University of Bath, UK ‘Robert Proctor’s book is a magisterial study of a vitally important topic: Roman Catholic church architecture in Britain during the period of upheaval, 1955–1975. Showing how architectural and liturgical developments became adopted in the specific context of Britain, Proctor gives fine-grained discussion of particular communities, and deeply impressive knowledge of the roles played by architects. ... This is a highly significant study; it will be the authoritative source on this subject.’ Richard Kieckhefer, Northwestern University, USA The author examines changing conceptions of tradition and modernity, and the development of a modern church architecture that drew from the ideas of the liturgical movement. Based on meticulous historical research in primary sources, theoretically informed, fully referenced, and thoroughly illustrated, this book will be of interest to anyone concerned with the church architecture, art and theology of this period.

From Formalism to Weak Form: The Architecture and Philosophy of Peter Eisenman Stefano Corbo, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain and Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura Eisenman has always been deeply interested in the problem of form in architecture and has constantly challenged the classical concept of it. He tried to connect his own work with the cultural manifestations of the time: firstly under the influence of Colin Rowe and his formalist studies; secondly, by re-interpreting Chomsky’s linguistic theories; in the 80’s, by collaborating with Derrida and his de-constructivist approach; more recently by discovering Henry Bergson’s idea of Time. Taking a multi-disciplinary approach based on the intersections between architecture and philosophy, this book investigates all these definitions and, in doing so, provides new insights into and a deeper understanding of the complexity of Eisenman’s work.

Reflections around Anachronistic Drawings Anne Bordeleau, University of Waterloo, Canada Focusing on how an important nineteenth-century architect addressed the already shifting relation between architecture, time and history, this book offers insights on issues still relevant today – the struggle between imitation and innovation, the definition (or rejection) of aesthetic experience, the grounds of architectural judgment (who decides and how), or fundamentally, how to act (i.e. build) when there is no longer a single grand narrative but a plurality of possible histories. Six drawings provide the foundation of an itinerary through Charles Robert Cockerell’s conception of architecture, and into the depths of drawings and buildings.

The Ina-Casa Neighborhoods of the Postwar Era Stephanie Zeier Pilat, University of Oklahoma, USA This book examines what made Ina-Casa a success among so many failed housing experiments, focusing on the tenuous balance struck between the legislation governing Ina-Casa, the architects who led the Ina-Casa administration, the theory of design that guided architects working on the plan, and an analysis of the results-the neighborhoods and homes constructed. Drawing on the writings of the architects, government documents, and including brief passages from works of neorealist literature and descriptions of neorealist films by Pier Paolo Pasolini, Italo Calvino and others, this book presents a portrait of the postwar struggle to define a post-Fascist Italy.

‘This book studies Holocaust museums on the premise that their location away from the site of trauma poses an intriguing set of representational, philosophical and even political problems. Neuman’s brilliant and thorough analysis brings the reader into the heart of the multi-layered contestations about what architecture should or should not do in these contexts.’ Mark Jarzombek, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
Focusing on the Ghetto Fighters’ House, the world’s first Holocaust museum; Yad Vashem, Israel’s national Holocaust memorial in Jerusalem; the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, and the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin, the book discusses how the representation of history by architecture creates a dialectic process in which architecture mediates the past to the present, while at the same time creating a present saturated with historical contexts. It shows how, together, they are incorporated into one another and create a new reality: past and present intertwined. Includes 4 colour and 66 b&w illustrations

In recent years architectural discourse has witnessed a renewed interest in materiality under the guise of such familiar tropes as ‘material honesty,’ ‘form finding,’ or ‘digital materiality.’ As an alternative to a formal approach in architectural design, this book challenges readers to rethink the reverie of materials in architecture through an examination of historical precedent, architectural practice, literary sources, philosophical analyses and everyday experience. Focusing on matter as the premise of an architect’s imagination, each chapter identifies and graphically illustrates how material imagination defines the conceptual premises for making architecture.

This volume explores the place of the sketchbook in contemporary art and architecture. Drawing upon a diverse range of theories, practices, and reflections common to the contemporary conceptualisation of the sketchbook and its associated environments, it offers a dialogue in which the sketchbook can be understood as a pivotal working tool that contributes to the creative process and the formulation and production of visual ideas. Along with exploring the theoretical, philosophical, psychological, and curatorial implications of the sketchbook, the book addresses emergent digital practices by way of examining contemporary developments in sketchbook productions and pedagogical applications.

Suspending Modernity: The Architecture of Franco Albini Kay Bea Jones, School of Architecture, Ohio State University, USA Kay Bea Jones’ illuminating study of selected works by Studio Albini will reintroduce his contributions to one of the most productive periods in Italian design. Suspending Modernity follows the evolution of Albini’s most important buildings and projects, even as they reveal his apprehensive attitudes about the modern condition. Albini clarified the vital role of tradition in modern architecture as he experimented with domestic space. His cohort defied CIAM ideologies to re-socialize postwar housing and speculate on ways of reviving Italian cities. Jones argues here that Albini’s masterful use of materials and architectural expression mark an epic paradigm shift in the modern period.

Architecture New Titles The Emergence of a Modern City Golden Age Copenhagen 1800–1850
An Urban Design Research Primer
Henriette Steiner, University of Copenhagen, Denmark During Denmark’s ‘Golden Age‘ (c. 1800 to 1850), Copenhagen came into being as a modern city on the urban-cultural level. This book examines this period in the city’s history, just before the establishment of some of the main features of the modernisation of cities associated with industrialisation, such as street lighting, sewer systems, and working class quarters. It assesses the work of the most prominent architect of the period, C.F. Hansen, in transforming the city physically, before moving on to consider writings by three citizens of Copenhagen, the philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, the novelist Thomasine Gyllembourg and the criminal Ole Kollerød, all of whom write about the city’s institutional structure and urban life.

Edited by Matthew Carmona, Bartlett School of Planning, University College London, UK ‘This well-illustrated volume edited by Matthew Carmona lifts the state of the art in urban design research and scholarship to a new height. This primer offers intriguing new methods and technologies for conducting research on urban form, urbanism and the processes of urban design. It is an exciting and unique contribution to the expanding scope of theory and practice – a must read for students, scholars and practitioners.’ Tridib Banerjee, University of Southern California, USA This book advances an interdisciplinary and innovative approach to urban design, whilst recognising that distinctly different traditions exist within its study and practice. It informs users who are grappling with urban design research problems, but who need the inspiration to move from idea to methodological approach. Through the work of 32 urban researchers from the arts, sciences and social sciences, it demonstrates a wide range of problems and approaches and shows how the diverse range of complementary approaches can come together to provide a holistic understanding to the design of cities.

Drawing on the synergies between the fields of architecture and photography, this collection takes a multidisciplinary approach, combining practice-based research with scholarly essays. It explores and critically reassesses the interface between representation – the imaginary and symbolic shaping of the human environment – and production – the physical and material changes wrought on the land. At a time of environmental crisis and the ‘end of nature,’ shifting geopolitical boundaries and economic downturn, Emerging Landscapes reflects on the state of landscape and its future, mapping those practices that creatively address the boundaries between possibility, opportunity and action in imagining and shaping landscape.

This ambitious and innovative volume stretches over time and space, over the history of modernity in relation to antiquity, between East and West, to offer insights into what the author terms the ‘geographical unconscious’. She argues that, by tapping into this, we can contribute towards the reinstatement of some kind of morality and justice in today’s troubled world. Approaching selected moments from ancient times to the present of Greek cultural and aesthetic geographies, the book examines diachronic spatiotemporal flows, which are cultural, urban or landscape-related, in conjunction with parallel currents of change and key issues of our time.

During his lifetime, the work of architect George Hadfield (1763–1826) was highly regarded, both in England and the United States. Since his death, however, Hadfield’s contributions to architecture have slowly faded from view, and few of his buildings survive. In order to reassess Hadfield’s career and work, this book draws upon a wide selection of written and visual sources to reconstruct his life and legacy.

Gordon Matta-Clark’s Conical Intersect Sculpture, Space, and the Cultural Value of Urban Imagery Peter Muir, Open University, UK In this in-depth analysis, Peter Muir argues that Gordon Matta-Clark’s Conical Intersect (1975) is emblematic of Henri Lefebvre’s understanding of art’s function in relation to urban space. By engaging with Lefebvre’s theory in conjunction with the perspectives of other writers, such as Michel de Certeau, Jacques Derrida, and George Bataille, the book elicits a story that presents the artwork’s significance, origins and legacies. Muir argues that Conical Intersect is much more than an ‘artistic hole.’ Due to its location at Plateau Beaubourg in Paris, it is simultaneously an object of art and an instrument of social critique.

Michael Hebbert, University College London, UK Bringing together a range of international case studies, this volume explores the highly visual genre of public planning exhibitions worldwide. In doing so, it provides a unique lens on the development of modern urban planning and design from the late 19th century to the present day. Focussing mainly on the first half of the 20th century, it looks in particular at historic exhibitions which sought to transform urban society’s understanding of the possibilities of planning as a force for social betterment.
George Hadfield: Architect of the Federal City

Alasdair J.H. Jones, London School of Economics, UK
Paramount in the shaping of early Byzantine identity was the construction of the church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople (532–537 CE). This book examines the edifice from the perspective of aesthetics to define the concept of beauty and the meaning of art in early Byzantium. Byzantine aesthetic thought is re-evaluated against late antique Neoplatonism and the writings of Pseudo-Dionysius that offer fundamental paradigms for the late antique attitude towards art and beauty.

Reviews of the first edition:
THE NINETEENTH CENTURY SERIES
‘This book is a “must” for any student or young designer because it actually deals with the absolute basics of how to draw and what to use…James Blake’s approach is thorough and honest – tackle and master the rudiments before going on to the more sophisticated…Overall, James Blake has produced a very useful book in its category and it will go a long way to help students and young designers.’ Landscape Design How do you design a landscape book suitable for its intended uses? How can the natural qualities of a landscape be enhanced with new features and focal points? How can you make pedestrians stay on the footpath? What kind of plant, path or wall should you put where, and what sort of contract should you choose for your client’s contractor? This refreshing, down-to-earth book answers these questions, guiding new students through the many facets of professional practice and welding together the artistic, legal, financial, environmental and management issues which can seem so dauntingly disconnected.

‘In this detailed exploration of London’s South Bank, Jones provides a timely exploration of what is a truly public or social space. Navigating issues of design, politics, ethnography, finance, planning and performance, On South Bank is a thoughtful and timely contribution to our understanding of both the South Bank itself and public spaces in general.’ Iain Borden, Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London, UK Through an in-depth ethnographic examination of London’s ‘South Bank’, this book explores the value widely presupposed on urban public space. Based on subjective accounts of the value of public space, as well as observations of how the South Bank is used and ‘practised’ on a daily basis, it argues that this value is not so much inherent to physical public space itself as it is derived through the everyday use and production of that space. Public space is valued not only for its essential material characteristics but also for the productive potential that these characteristics, if properly managed, afford on a daily basis.

Through close readings of individual serials and books Sarah Dewis examines the significant contributions John and Jane Webb Loudon made to the gardening press and democratic discourse.

Their publications are placed in the context of book, media, education, garden and urban social history and women’s journalism. February 2014 Hardback ebook PDF ebook ePUB

Ornament and Order Graffiti, Street Art and the Parergon Rafael Schacter, University College London, UK Based on an in-depth ethnographic study working with some of the world’s most influential Independent Public Artists, this book takes a completely new approach. Placing these illicit aesthetic practices within a broader historical, political, and aesthetic context, it argues that they are in fact both intrinsically ornamental (working within a classic architectonic framework), as well as innately ordered (within a highly ritualized, performative structure). Rather than disharmonic, destructive forms, rather than ones solely working within the dynamics of the market, these insurgent images are seen to reface rather than deface the city, operating within a modality of contemporary civic ritual.

The Paradoxes of Planning A Psycho-Analytical Perspective Sara Westin, Uppsala University, Sweden NEW DIRECTIONS IN PLANNING THEORY
‘As the gifted geographer she is, Sara Westin knows where power is hiding its secrets and revealing its truths: in the gap between good intentions and the world as it is. Set on understanding what is happening in this no-man’s land she puts the planning profession on the couch, the tragic structure of thoughtand-action laid bare in the process. Quite an achievement, Nietzsche and Freud nodding their heads in recognition.’ Gunnar Olsson, Uppsala University, Sweden Using a philosophical and psychoanalytical approach, this book critically examines expert knowledge within architecture and urban planning. Its point of departure is the ‘gap’ between visions and realities, intentions and outcomes in planning, with particular focus on projects in Sweden that try to create an ‘urban atmosphere’. Finding insights from the work of Sigmund Freud and his followers, the book argues that urban planning during the 20th century is a neurotic activity prone to produce a type of alienation.

DESIGN AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT
Emergent Urbanism
Series ediitor: Matthew Carmona
Edited by Tigran Haas, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden and Krister Olsson, University of Gothenburg, Sweden
Although a discipline with ancient roots, it is only very recently that urban design has been widely recognised by many national and local governments and by the established built environment professions as a discrete and important area of practice with its own theoretical base and significant practical contribution to make to delivering and maintaining urban quality. With its new status, urban design is now an expanding discipline sitting amongst and bridging the gaps between the established built environment professions of architecture, planning, surveying, landscape architecture, and engineering. In this position, urban design also borrows from, and contributes to, academic discourse in areas as diverse as urban geography, sociology, public administration, cultural studies, environmental management, and conservation and urban regeneration. This series provides a means to disseminate more substantive urban and environmental design research.
Constructing the Colonized Land Entwined Perspectives of East Asia around WWII
Examining colonized cities in East Asia, this book brings together a range of different perspectives across both space and time. European, Chinese, Taiwanese, Korean and Japanese discourses are examined, with a range of complementary and conflicting views on the design of urban and architectural forms; the political, institutional, religious and economical contexts of urban planning; the role played by various media; and the influence of various geographical, social and anthropological research methods. The diversity and plurality of these perspectives in this book provides an entwined architectural, urban and social history of East Asia, which offers insights into the cultural systems and the historical and spatial meanings of these colonized cities.

‘Can a city be part of a sustainable ecosystem? This book deals with the complex processes of city design and the field of emergent urbanism. In times of profound urban and social change, which are transforming our systems of infrastructure and public space, this book offers a critical overview of recent trends for scholars, students and practitioners.’ Steffen Lehmann, Curtin University, Australia Bringing together leading academics from across a range of disciplines, Emergent Urbanism identifies the specific issues dominating today’s urban planning and urban design discourse, arguing that urban planning and design not only results from deliberate planning and design measures, but how these combine with infrastructure planning, and derive from economic, social and spatial processes of structural change. Combining explorations from urban planning, urban theory, human geography, sociology, urban design and architecture, the volume provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art overview, highlighting the complexities of these interactions in space and place, process and design.

Edited by Stephen Games, University of Kent, UK ‘Conversational, spontaneous, wide-ranging, and often responding to recent travels and encounters, Pevsner’s broadcasts reveal a side that does not appear in his more scholarly writings. Reading the transcripts today, they show him reaching beyond the circle of professionals and academics, as part of his mission to bring informed discussion of architecture into the orbit of everyday life.’ Adrian Forty, The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London, UK This book brings together the surviving texts of the 113 talks on art and architecture that we know of, given by the art historian Sir Nikolaus Pevsner on radio and television between 1945–1977. These talks are important as an example of the attempt by the BBC in particular to provide intellectual programming for the mass population. The talks are important for what they reveal about changing tastes in the treatment of the arts as a broadcast topic, as well as offering a case study of the development of one particular historian’s approach to a subject that was gaining ground in universities as a direct result of his popularisation of it.

Measuring Public Space: The Star Model Georgiana Mihaela Varna, University of Glasgow, UK ‘Public space is an integral ingredient of urban life, with a degree of complexity that requires multi-dimensional sensibility in theory and practice. Georgiana Varna insightfully approaches the subject by developing a new methodology for assessing the publicness of public spaces through five dimensions (ownership, control, physical configuration, animation, and civility), which are exemplified by three cases from Glasgow.’
The studies included in this volume focus on the monuments of two cities in Roman Spain, Emerita (now Mérida) and Tarraco (now Tarragona). Duncan Fishwick provides historiographic surveys of the monuments before discussing the architectonic significance of the provincial forum at Emerita, the influence of the provincial governor in its construction, and the evidence for an Ara Providentiae and a templum minus. He investigates the discovery of the ‘Temple of Augustus’ in Tarragona and turns his attention to present opinion on the successive stages of construction and design.

This book shows how urban design can complement other disciplines when tackling the complex task of understanding and improving the built environment’s public realm. It also bridges the gap between theory and practice as it draws from empirical research to suggest more quantitative approaches towards auditing and improving public places. By seeing where and why certain public places fail, direct and informed interventions can be made to improve them and through this contribute to the building of more attractive and sustainable cities.

Raw: Architectural Engagements with Nature Edited by Solveig Bøe, Hege Charlotte Faber and Brit Strandhagen, all at Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway Nature inheres in many aesthetic forms of expression. In architecture, however, nature emerges with a particular power and clarity, which makes architecture a raw kind of art. Thus, by using the concept of ‘raw’ as a focal point, this book provides new approaches to architecture in a broad sense, as well as other aesthetic and artistic practices, and will be of interest to readers from different fields of the arts and humanities, spanning from philosophy and theology to history of art, architecture and music. Includes 34 colour and 40 b&w illustrations, and 18 music examples October 2014 Hardback ebook PDF ebook ePUB

Architecture New Titles Reading the Architecture of the Underprivileged Classes Edited by Nnamdi Elleh, University of Cincinnati, USA ‘A powerful collection that opens new questions and provides intriguing leads on subjects critical to identities and spaces in cities across five continents, proposing new ways of exploring and understanding relationships between popular and formal design, building and social forms.’ Alan Mabin, University of Pretoria, South Africa This book not only shows how architects can learn from traditional or vernacular dwellings in order to create habitations for the people of low-income groups in public housing scenarios, but also demonstrates how the architecture of the economically underprivileged classes goes beyond culturally-inspired tectonic interpretations of vernacular traditions by architects for high profile clients. It explores how the resourceful dwellings of the underprivileged inhabitants of the great cities in developing parts of the world pioneered certain concepts of modernism and contemporary design practices such as sustainable and de-constructivist design.

Sehrengiz, Urban Rituals and Deviant Sufi Mysticism in Ottoman Istanbul
Remembering the Cultural Geographies of a Childhood Home Peter Hughes Jachimiak, University of South Wales, UK
B. Deniz Çalis-Kural, Istanbul Bilgi University, Turkey
‘A wonderful example of “doing cultural geography”: of evocative and resonant auto-ethnography. A kaleidoscopic view of the 1970s in which the places, experiences, beliefs and reveries of a childhood in South Wales and the books, comics, television programmes, films and popular pursuits of the period constantly shift to create new and provocative perceptions of the cultural fabric and transformations of that difficult decade. A valuable, creative and highly readable addition to the literature on geographies of childhood, and especially on the impact of media.’
‘Sehrengiz, Urban Rituals and Deviant Sufi Mysticism in Ottoman Istanbul is thrillingly bold, demonstrating that the Ottoman sehrengiz were a function of the Melâmî sufi order. This is as breath-taking as to say that performances at the Globe Theatre of Elizabethan England were a function of a secret mystical order penetrating the highest levels of government. Yet in this author’s hands the exposition proceeds at a calm, comfortable pace, rigorously supported and comfortably thorough.’
Mike Pearson, Aberystwyth University, UK This book is primarily structured by the author’s memories of living in his own Welsh childhood home during the 1970s. Employing an innovative auto-ethnographic approach to investigate the otherness of the places that make up the childhood home and its neighbourhood in relation to memory-derived and memory-imbued cultural geographies, Remembering the Cultural Geographies of a Childhood Home is concerned with childhood spaces and children’s perspectives of those spaces and, consequentially, with the personalised locations that make up the childhood family home and its immediate surroundings.

Victoria Holbrook, author of The Unreadable Shores of Love: Turkish Modernity and Mystic Romance Examining the urban culture and landscapes of Istanbul through Sehrengiz, a genre of Ottoman poetry written in honor of various cities and provincial towns, this book questions the space culture of the Ottoman world in relation to practices of orthodox and heterodox Islam and imperial politics. The author traces how a sixteenth-century marginal protest movement evolved, by the early eighteenth century, into a movement of urban space reform.

The Scottish National War Memorial
Edited by Meredith Cohen, University of California, Los Angeles, USA and Fanny Madeline, Laboratoire de Médiévistique Occidentale de Paris, France
Islamic Architecture in the Lands of Rum, 1240–1330
Beginning with the Mongol conquest of Anatolia in 1243, and ending with the demise of the Ilkhanid Empire in the 1330s, this book considers how the integration of Anatolia into the Mongol world system transformed architecture and patronage in this frontier region. Blessing considers the monuments built during this period alongside written sources in Arabic, Persian and Turkish. In doing so, she untangles the narratives of architecture, history and religion and provides a broader understanding of the interaction of identities in the medieval Middle East.

In the last two decades, research on spatial paradigms and practices has gained momentum across disciplines and periods, including the field of medieval studies. Responding to this ‘spatial turn’ in the humanities, the essays collected here generate new ideas about how medieval space was defined, constructed, and practiced in Europe, particularly in France. The resulting collection builds on existing scholarship but brings new insight, situating medieval constructions of space in relation to contemporary conceptions of the subject.

VISUAL CULTURE IN EARLY MODERNITY
The Spiritual Rococo
Series editor: Allison Levy
Gauvin Alexander Bailey, Queen’s University, Canada
Visual Culture in Early Modernity promotes new models of inquiry and new narratives of early modern art and its history. We welcome proposals for both monographs and essay collections that consider the cultural production and reception of images and objects. The range of topics covered in this series includes, but is not limited to, painting, sculpture and architecture as well as material objects, such as domestic furnishings, religious and/or ritual accessories, costume, scientific/medical apparata, erotica, ephemera and printed matter. We seek innovative investigations of western and non-western visual culture produced between 1400 and 1800.
Bailey’s book expands upon our understanding of rococo art and architecture in two significant ways. It proposes that there was a spiritual component to the rococo from its inception, detectable even in its secular applications. It also reveals how spirituality enabled rococo design to become a global phenomenon, ranging beyond France to Germany, Brazil, and Argentina. This is a stimulating, provocative study that reveals how much the rococo mattered to eighteenth-century societies.
Apostolic Iconography and Florentine Confraternities in the Age of Reform Douglas N. Dow, Kansas State University, USA Focusing on artists and architectural complexes which until now have eluded scholarly attention, this study examines three different confraternal organizations in sixteenthcentury Florence. Douglas Dow explores how, through the emphasis on the apostles within their art programs, these corporate groups adapted existing iconography to their own purposes. He argues that their willful engagement with apostolic themes reveals the complex interaction between these organizations and the church’s program of reform.
Decor and Divinity from the Salons of Paris to the Missions of Patagonia
Michael Yonan, University of Missouri, Columbia, USA Exploring for the very first time the global reach and spiritual dimension of Rococo décor, particularly in France, Central Europe, Portugal, Brazil, and Spanish South America, this study investigates the socio-religious motives for the importation of this style into an ecclesiastical setting and its commonalities with Enlightenment values, overturning the cliché of Rococo as a frivolous style and acknowledging its essential modernity.
Vincenzo Scamozzi and the Chorography of Early Modern Architecture Ann Marie Borys, University of Washington, USA Ann Marie Borys presents northern Italian architect Vincenzo Scamozzi (1548–1616) as a traveler and an observer, the first Western architect to respond to the changing shape of the world in the Age of Discovery. Pointing out his familiarity with the expansion of knowledge in both natural history and geography, she highlights his truly unique contribution: to make geography and cartography central to the knowledge of the architect.

Architecture New Titles Under Construction: Logics of Urbanism in the Gulf Region Edited by Steffen Wippel and Katrin Bromber, both at ZMO, Germany, Christian Steiner, University of Osnabrϋck, Germany and Birgit Krawietz, Free University Berlin, Germany Interdisciplinary in approach, this volume explores and deciphers the symbolic value and iconicity of the built environment in the Arab Gulf Region, its aesthetics, language and performative characteristics. It suggests that recent developments in this region of the world not only represent a showcase of extraordinary initiatives by which these desert states have transformed, but also that the commodification of local ‘traditions’ acts as an essential element in the countries’ effort to design an Arab version of (hyper-)modernity and to position themselves as a regional and global archetype, which has frequently been adopted elsewhere.

The Urban Department Store in America, 1850–1930 Louisa Iarocci, University of Washington, USA Between the mid nineteenth century and the 1930s, the urban department store arose as a built artifact and as a social institution in the United States. While the physical building type is the foundation of this comprehensive architectural study, Iarocci reaches beyond the analysis of the brick and mortar to reconsider how the ‘spaces of selling’ were culturally-produced spaces, as well as the product of interrelated economic, social, technological and aesthetic forces.

Urban Revolution Now Henri Lefebvre in Social Research and Architecture Edited by Lukasz Stanek, University of Manchester, UK, Christian Schmid and Ákos Moravánszky, both at ETH Zürich, Switzerland ‘Henri Lefebvre’s approach to the production of urban space continues to inspire radical theory and research in relation to diverse conditions, transformations and struggles in cities around the world. This book offers powerful evidence that the theories and concepts developed by Lefebvre may be productively mobilized to illuminate major dimensions of contemporary urbanization processes. As this volume assertively demonstrates, Lefebvre’s work remains an essential resource for contemporary forms of critical urban theory – and praxis.’ Neil Brenner, Harvard University, USA This volume is the first to develop Lefebvre’s concepts in social research and architecture by focusing on urban conjunctures in Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Mexico, Poland, Serbia, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom and United States. With contributions by historians and theorists of architecture and urbanism, geographers, sociologists, political and cultural scientists, this book reveals the multiplicity of processes of urbanization and the variety of their patterns and actors around the globe.

HERITAGE, CULTURE AND IDENTITY
‘Individually and in sum, the chapters collected here launch a convincing attack on the ways in which “expertise” has been used to build authority and hence to exclude laypersons from an involvement in heritage. They do so not only by critiquing the concept directly, but also through case studies which show how counter-heritages can radically undermine older models to provide innovative, new, and ultimately more democratic ways of understanding heritage and its role in contemporary society.’ Rodney Harrison, UCL Institute of Archaeology, UK Taking the significant Faro Convention on the Value of Cultural Heritage for Society (Council of Europe 2005) as it’s starting point, this book presents pragmatic views on the rise of the local and the everyday within cultural heritage discourse and it examines ways in which authorised or ‘expert’ views of heritage can be challenged. It concludes that local agenda and everyday places matter, and examines how a realignment of heritage practice to accommodate such things could usefully contribute to more inclusive and socially relevant cultural agenda.

STUDIES IN ART HISTORIOGRAPHY
In the mid-1880s, an influential British architectural journal published an article characterizing Renaissance architecture as a corruption of classical architecture. By the turn of the century, however, the same journal praised the Renaissance architect Filippo Brunelleschi as the ‘Christopher Columbus of modern architecture.’ Relevant for architectural historians, literary scholars and those in Victorian studies, this book examines the conflicting late nineteenthcentury characterizations of Renaissance architecture and reassesses them within the formation of a modern, British architectural profession.

‘An excellent introduction to the historical and modern significance of this World Heritage site. It is an important milestone in the development of the heritage literature, because it explains the world-historical importance of the site for our own cultural heritage (in which it has been overshadowed by Greece), and for Iran in the modern Middle East.’ Brian Spooner, University of Pennsylvania, USA This edited volume presents for the first time a broad, multi-disciplinary examination of Pasargadae by experts from both outside and within Iran. It specifically focuses on those disciplines that are absent from existing studies, such as ethnography, tourism and museum studies providing valuable insights into this fascinating place. In conclusion, the book argues that to understand World Heritage sites and their problems fully, a holistic approach should be adopted, which considers the manifold of perspectives and issues and it puts forward a novel approach to the question of heritage, representation and construction of collective identity from the framework of place.
