Kevin Nute

The Constructed Other: Japanese Architecture in the Western Mind (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book argues that a widespread assumption of the inherent otherness of Japanese architecture made it not only a test of the universality of Western architectural theories but also a seemingly endless source of inspiration. It is of value to anyone interested in architectural history, Japanese architecture or cultural theory.
