Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Sources of Architectural Form provides a critical history of Western architecture theory from the ancient world to the present day.

Each theory is analysed for its strengths and weaknesses. Gelernter identifies an important relationship between theories of design and theories of knowledge, and so explains and analyses each periods dominant epistemological concepts.

Condizione: Very Good. : Este libro proporciona una historia crítica de la teoría de la arquitectura occidental desde el mundo antiguo hasta el presente. Se centra en la cuestión central de la teoría del diseño: ¿cómo genera el arquitecto la forma arquitectónica? Los teóricos abordan necesariamente esta cuestión fundamental para explicar una serie de cuestiones desconcertantes, incluidos los orígenes del estilo, la persistencia de la tradición y el papel del genio. Este libro describe las principales teorías del diseño en ocho períodos cronológicos, transmitiendo su sabor con citas contemporáneas. Cada teoría se analiza por sus fortalezas y debilidades. Gelernter identifica una importante relación entre las teorías del diseño y las teorías del conocimiento, y así explica y analiza los conceptos epistemológicos dominantes de cada período. También se examinan los teóricos contemporáneos de la educación, ya que muchos teóricos, desde Vitruvio hasta Gropius, incluyeron preceptos para la enseñanza como componentes integrales de sus ideas.
