Academic architectural education started with the inauguration of
the Academie d'Architecture on 3 December 1671 in France. It was
the first institution to be devoted solely to the study of
architecture, and its school was the first dedicated to the
explicit training of architectural students. The Academie was
abolished in 1793, during the revolutionary turmoil that besieged
France at the end of the eighteenth century, although the
architectural educational tradition that arose from it was
resurrected with the formation of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and
prevails in the ideologies and activities of schools of
architecture throughout the world today. This book traces the
previously neglected history of the Academie's development and its
enduring influence on subsequent architectural schools throughout
the following centuries to the present day. Providing a valuable
context for current discussions in architectural education, The
Rise of Academic Architectural Education is a useful resource for
students and researchers interested in the history and theory of
art and architecture.
