A survey of architectural thought from pre-classical times to the present. Humankind’s relation to the world via the approach to the making of structures and artifacts will be examined through readings of selected architectural treatises, manifestoes, and other philosophical texts. Emphasis will be given to the trajectory of Western thought while potentially comparing the diverse thought of other cultures from across the globe, and across time.
