Originally published in 1958, A Guide to Western Architecture
charts the origins of the system of architectural design that was
perfected in Greece, follows its development under the Roman Empire
and describes the achievements of the Byzantine architects. Passing
through Romanesque to Gothic, the contributions made by Mediaeval
builders to structure and design are recorded, and then the impact
of the Renaissance on architecture, and its characteristic
development in the different European countries. The transplanting
of Renaissance ideas to the New World is covered, and finally the
origins and nature of the new Western architecture occupy the last
section of the book. The Appendix includes a list of the principal
architects, and brief notes on their work, from the 5th century B.
C. to the end of the Renaissance.
