Sinossi
This book defines classical architecture in all its manifestations, from Graeco-Roman antiquity, through its re-working during the Renaissance, the inventiveness of Baroque and Rococo, the rediscovery of antiquity, to the various phases of late classicism throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. It also explores the language of classical architecture, and demonstrates its cultural, emotional and symbolic richness compared to today's architectural language. The author points out the integral role of ornament and decoration in classical architecture. Also included in this book is an illustrated glossary. James Stevens Curl is the author of "The Art and Architecture of Freemasonry".

Synopsis: This beautifully illustrated book is concerned with the fundamental principles and various aspects of Classical Architecture, including a detailed, illustrated glossary that is almost a dictionary in itself. The author describes in clear, straightforward, jargon-free language the origins of Classical Architecture in Greek and Roman Antiquity, and outlines its continuous development, through its various manifestations during the Renaissance, its transformations in Baroque and Rococo phases, its re-emergence in eighteenth-, nineteenth-, and twentieth-century Neo-Classicism, and its survival into modern times. The text and illustrations celebrate the richness of the Classical architectural vocabulary, grammar, and language, and demonstrate the enormous range of themes and motifs embraced by the subject.
