Norway and Russia have been closely related through the ages, both
geographically and historically, and have experienced similar
problems relating to climate, building maintenance and national
wooden architecture. As a result, the parallel study of
architectural conservation and restoration theories and practices
in both neighbouring Northern states makes for a stimulating
collective monograph. Architectural Conservation and Restoration in
Norway and Russia delves into the main challenges of historic and
contemporary architectural preservation practices in the two
countries. The book consists of three main parts: the discovery and
preservation of historical architecture in the late nineteenth to
early twentieth century; contemporary approaches to former
restorations and the conservation and maintenance of historical
architecture; and, finally, current questions concerning
preservation of twentieth-century architectural heritage which, due
to different building technologies and artistic qualities, demand
revised methods and historical evaluation. This is a valuable
resource for academics, researchers and students in different areas
of architecture (medieval, nineteenth-century, wooden and
contemporary architecture) as well as in the fields of art,
architectural history, cultural heritage and Scandinavian and
Russian studies.
