De Architectura, the ten books by the Roman architect Vitruvius, survives as the only complete architectural treatise from antiquity. Its influence from the early Renaissance on was enormous, and many architects and theorists in Renaissance Italy, following Vitruvius's example, attempted to codify architectural practice and theory by writing their own treatises. In this important collection of essays, leading specialists examine the early editions of Vitruvius's writings and all the major Renaissance architectural treatises. The collection shows how architectural treatises by such authors as Alberti, Di Giorgio, Colonna, Serlio, Palladio, and others have affected the development of the art of building. The contributors offer new insights into the ideas of the treatises and discuss their significance in Renaissance Italy and their long-lasting influence throughout Europe.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 8vo (24 cm), X, 414 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket (paper slightly toned). "Paper Palaces" explores the development of architectural treatises during the Renaissance, tracing the evolution of the genre from its roots in the medieval manuscript tradition to the printed books of the sixteenth century. Vaughan Hart analyzes the works of key figures such as Alberti, Serlio, and Palladio, examining how these authors utilized text, image, and architectural theory to influence the practice of building in Renaissance Europe. Through a close reading of these treatises, Hart demonstrates how they contributed to the emergence of the architect as a professional figure and helped establish architecture as a distinct discipline. "Paper Palaces" represents a significant contribution to the study of architectural history and Renaissance culture. Artikel-Nr. 008221
