James Stirling (1926-1992) was one of the most influential
architects of the late 20th century. His formally inventive yet
historically informed designs inspired a generation of architects
in his native England and throughout the world. James Stirling:
Revisionary Modernist is the first in-depth, book-length analysis
of the architect's work. Amanda Reeser Lawrence focuses on six of
Stirling's projects from the early 1950s through the late 1970s,
offering detailed formal analysis of the buildings and drawings
while also mapping his relationship to a broader architectural and
cultural context. Though it is widely held that Stirling took a
mid-career turn toward postmodernism, Lawrence shows that he was
undeniably modern throughout his career. She clarifies the ways in
which Stirling understood modernism as inextricably linked to the
past and placed his own work in what he termed a "dialogue with
architectural tradition."
