Urban Design in Western Europe: Regime and Architecture, 900-1900 Paperback - 1990
by Wolfgang Braunfels; Kenneth J. Northcott (Translator)
First line
THIS BOOK STARTS AT THE POINT where the ancient orders of life had completed their decline and the Middle Ages began.
From the rear cover
What makes a city endure and prosper? In this masterful survey of a thousand years of urban architecture, Wolfgang Braunfels identifies certain themes common to cities as different as Siena and London, Munich and Venice. These themes include suitability of site to city function; the capacity to adapt to changing demographic and economic conditions; and---perhaps most important---an architecture that expresses a city's personality and most particularly its political personality.

Description:
New. What makes a city endure and prosper? In this masterful survey of a thousand years of urban architecture, Wolfgang Braunfels identified certain themes common to cities as different as Siena and London, Munich and Venice. Most important is an architecture that expresses the city's personality and most particularly its political personality. Braunfels describes and classifies scores of cities--cathedral cities, city-state, maritime cities, imperial cities--and examines the links between their political and architectural histories. Lavishly illustrated with city plans, bird's-eye views, early renderings, and modern photographs, this book will delight and instruct architects, urban planners, historians, and travelers.
