This is the first full-length study on the connections between
English architecture and intellectual change between 1660 and 1730.
As new ideas developed in post-Restoration England across the
realms of politics, culture, academia and morality, so too did
architectural expression of these ideas. Power and Virtue
articulately engages English architecture with notions of power and
virtue in terms of empirical knowledge on the one hand and humanism
and virtuosi on the other.
Aimed at an academic readership in history and theory of
architecture and the history of English architecture, this unique
study will also interest those studying the ideas of material
culture.
