Description: "When Heinrich Hübsch published In What Style Should We Build? In 1828, German Neoclassicismâ€"like its counterpart in Franceâ€"was in rapid descent, thereby opening the question of what would follow. Could architects continue to draw from the classical wellspring? Could these aesthetic principles be augmented by those of the Romanesque or Gothic periods? Could an entirely new and nonhistorical architecture be forged? Hübsch's provocative argument, which insisted that the technical progress and changed living habits of the nineteenth century had once and for all rendered Neoclassical principles antiquated, touched off a lively, two-decade debate among architects, historians, and critics. This controversy led to a new nineteenth-century style and set the stage for the foundation of Modernism in the last decades of the century. Of particular import is Carl Bà tticher's incisive analysis of the theoretical landscapeâ€"written in 1846â€"in which he proffered for the first time the possibility of a new style based solely upon the structural and spatial innovations of iron construction. The broad outlines and meaning of this debate are delineated by Wolfgang Herrmann in his excellent introduction." -- with a bonus offer--; Texts & Documents; This series offers a range of heretofore unavailable writings in English translation on the subjects of art, architecture, and aesthetics.Hubsch's argument that the technical progress and changed living habits of the nineteenth century rendered neoclassical principles antiquated is presented here along with responses to his essay by architects, historians, and critics over two decades.
