From Mycenae to Constantinople (eBook, PDF)

The Evolution of the Ancient City

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Tomlinson presents studies of selected ancient cities, ranging from the earliest development of urban architecture in Europe to the imperial cities of Rome and Constantinople. It gives an account of their architecture, not merely from the art historical point of view, but as an expression of the social organisation, and political systems employed by the people who lived in them.
