Theories and history of architecture /
Tafuri, Manfredo.
Theories and history of architecture / Manfredo Tafuri - London, United Kingdom : Granada Publishing Limited, c1976 - 324 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Includes index.
1. Modern Architecture and the Eclipse of History-- 2. Architecture as 'Indifferent Object' and the Crisis of critical attention-- 3. Architecture as Metalanguage: the critical value of the image-- 4. Operative criticism-- 5. Instruments of Criticism-- 6. The tasks of criticism.
This book by Manfredo Tafuri has probably done more to influence current ideas and theories on architecture on the continent of Europe than any other publication since Christian Norberg-Schulz difficult and controversial books Intentions in Architecture was published in the early 1960's. Indeed a whole mystique has grown up about it and, although published over decade ago in Italian, No English language publisher has seen fit to issue it earlier or to see it as an essential document de partir before the republication in English of Tafuri's later or more ideological books.
