Land Air Sea: Architecture and Environment in the Early Modern Era
posits that the long Renaissance and eighteenth century are vital
for understanding how ideological concerns, present in current
debates on climate change and sustainability, were already
developed in earlier centuries. Astronomy, fortifications, naval
vessels, ports, and even nails played a significant role in shaping
the built environment of early modern historical figures. This book
transforms our modernist understanding of precisely what buildings
are and how they are constituted. Traversing three physical and
intellectual domains, this book surveys case studies from land,
air, and sea in order to understand how architecture was formulated
in relation to emergent technologies, indigenous cultural beliefs,
natural philosophy, and political statecraft.
