Synopsis

Manfredo Tafuri was one of the most influential architectural historians of the twentieth century, and his work continues to shape the landscape of architectural history and theory. This anthology presents―for the first time―a carefully curated selection of essays and interviews spanning his entire career, from 1964, the year in which Tafuri decided to focus exclusively on architectural history, to 1994, the year of his untimely death. These texts―most translated into English for the first time―reveal the extraordinary range of Tafuri’s scholarship, ranging from topics as diverse as the critique of architectural ideology and capitalist development, to the contradictions of the Soviet avant-garde, urban strategies in renaissance Italy, social democratic planning policies, and the work of architects including Giulio Romano, Le Corbusier, Aldo Rossi, and Carlo Scarpa.

• With essays devoted to the work of the architects Giulio Romano, Andrea Palladio, Francesco Borromini, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Aldo Rossi and Carlo Scarpa.
• Complemented by a biographical essay by Tafuri’s wife, Letizia Rapisarda
• Accompanied by more than 700 images
