Anti-rationalists and the rationalists / par Pevsner,, Nikolaus. Publication : [S.l.] : Architectural Press, 2000 . 456 p. ; , This book pits some of the most famous architectural theorists against each other in one volume. The subject for debate is Modernism, the most pressing issue of the 20th century. This timely publication gives a comprehensive overview of the arguments and counter-arguments that abound. 'The Anti-Rationalist and the Rationalist' is a combination of two excellent Architectural Press titles by prestigious authors. The first argues that 'the austere rationality of the modern movement is after all losing out'. Pevsner and Richards believe that a new generation of architects are turning again to exuberance, plasticity and individuality, in rebellion against the vision of industrial society symbolised by the sheer unadorned towers of glass and steel that came to dominate cities in the fifties and sixties. In contrast, Dennis Sharp examines the evidence to support the counter argument. He does this through an impressive collection of the most well respected architectural commentators of the century, such as Bruno Zevi, Charles Jencks and Geoffrey Broadbent. *Stimulating debate between prestigious architectural critics gives invaluable information on the arguments surrounding Modernism. *Comprehensive summary of ideas in one volume provides an authoritative reference. 30 cm. Date : 2000 Disponibilité : Exemplaires disponibles: La bibliothèque des sciences de l'ingénieur (1),

Architecture and modernity a critique par Heynen,, Hilde. Publication : Cambridge, Mass. MIT Press 1999 . 265 pages , "In this exploration of the relationship between modernity, dwelling, and architecture, Hilde Heynen attempts to bridge the gap between the discourse of the modern movement and cultural theories of modernity. On one hand, she discusses architecture from the perspective of critical theory, and on the other she modifies positions within critical theory by linking them with architecture. She assesses architecture as a cultural field that structures daily life and that embodies major contradictions inherent in modernity, arguing that architecture nonetheless has a certain capacity to adopt a critical stance vis-a-vis modernity."--Jacket. 26 cm. Date : 1999 Disponibilité : Exemplaires disponibles: La bibliothèque des sciences de l'ingénieur (1),
