"Bridging together architecture and festival, ritual and community, past and present, Architecture and Cultural Continuity provides an interdisciplinary philosophical framework for evaluating architecture as experience rather than uniquely form. Utilising primarily the Festival of San Giovanni as a site of study, establishing the importance of cultural depth to architecture, both through its participation in such ritualised events, as well as when it is the background to everyday life.
