The Printed and the Built' explores the intricate relationship between architecture and the printed media in the fast-changing nineteenth century. Publication history is a rapidly-expanding scholarly field, one which has profoundly influenced architectural history in recent years. Yet, while groundbreaking work has been done on architecture and printing in the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and the twentieth century, the nineteenth century has to date received little attention. This omission represents a significant gap in the understanding of architecture's cultural history - and one which 'The Printed and the Built' is the first to address. Illustrated with colourful and eclectic visual material, from panoramas to printed ephemera, adverts, penny magazines, early photography, and even crime reportage, this book consists of six in-depth thematic essays by leading figures in the field, accompanied by 18 short 'micro-histories' each examining a particular printed form. Altogether, they illustrate how new genres communicated architecture to a mass audience, setting the stage for the modern architectural era. (Worldcat)
