While his written work was rigorous and authoritative, his lectures and letters were more casual, "carefully careless," both witty and erudite.

Both edifying and entertaining, sometimes tongue-in-cheek, occasionally scathing, they fill in personal details and clarify key concepts in Rowe's work.In these writings, Rowe tells of the "Corbu superstructure upon a beaux-arts base" that refugee Polish architects and their students introduced to his alma mater, the University of Liverpool, in the early 1940s. He characterizes his controversial essay "The Mathematics of the Ideal Villa" as a "pretty clever but, otherwise, perfectly innocent little article," and reports that Le Corbusier's Villa Schwob "played an entirely disproportionate role in my mental life." Rowe's voice and opinions are strong in his discussions of architecture, current events, and his own life and work. Each piece begins with a brief introduction by the volume editor. The writings are illustrated by images of Rowe's drawings, letters, and postcards; photographs and drawings of Rowe's only built work; and illustrations chosen by Rowe for lectures.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 559 pages, illustrations. Corners bumped and scuffed; very good condition. "Legendary architect, historian, and critic Colin Rowe taught Architecture and Urban Design at Liverpool University, the University of Texas at Austin, Cambridge University, and for another 30 years at Cornell. From the late 1940s through to the early 1960s he wrote a uniquely perceptive series of articles on architecture that remains seminal to the discipline today. His books include The Mathematics of the Ideal Villa and Other Essays, The Architecture of Good Intentions, the volume As I Was Saying, and most notably, Collage City, 1978, written with Fred Koetter. The recipient of the profession's highest honors, he was awarded the Topaz Medallion for Excellence in Architectural Education in 1985 and the Gold Medal of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1995. "Rowe was an inveterate letter writer. From his student days at Liverpool in the early 1940s until his death in Washington in 1999, he wrote innumerable letters to his parents, renowned architects and scholars, friends, colleagues and former students on both sides of the Atlantic; and most consistently and intimately to his brother, David, and sister-in-law, Dorothy, in England. Informal and elegant ruminations, they illuminate moments in Rowe's migratory life, addressing a wide range of subjects from books, furniture, landscapes, politics, history, and education, to architecture and the urban condition and a host of other engaging topics. Rich with wit and an astonishing array of scholarship, each is written in the incomparable style for which Rowe has long been famous, making evident his love affair with words and revealing a man of great humor, warmth, and charm"--the publisher.…
