Architecture, which can be understood in its most basic sense as a
form of enclosure created with an aesthetic intent, first made its
appearance in the Prehistoric Age. From its earliest developments,
architecture changed over time and in different cultures in
response to changing cultural needs, aesthetic interests,
materials, and techniques. The A to Z of Architecture provides
information on architects like Frank Lloyd Wright, Tadao Ando, Leon
Battista Alberti, Filippo Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, and
Konstantin Stepanovich Melnikov, as well as on famous structures
like the Acropolis, the Colosseum, the Forbidden City, Machu Pichu,
Notre Dame, the Pyramids of Giza, Stonehenge, and the World Trade
Center. The dictionary examines the development of architecture
over the centuries through a chronology, an introductory essay, a
bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries
on the major architects, well-known buildings, time periods,
styles, building types, and materials in world architecture.
