Using original archival material, it considers the idea of the past in the period, specifically how it was discovered and described, and investigates how space and time inform visual ekphrasis or descriptions of architecture. The idea of embodiment is used to explore the various methods of describing architecture – including graphic techniques, measurement and perspective – all of which demonstrate choices about different modes of ekphrasis. This well-illustrated, accessibly written study will be of interest to academics and students working in a broad range of subject areas. It will also be an essential teaching tool for increasingly popular cross-disciplinary courses.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmAuthor: Dana ArnoldGenre: HistoryBook Series: Rethinking Art's HistoriesTopic: Literary Criticism, Arts & Photography, Architecture & AntiquesItem Width: 11mmItem Weight: 417gRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
