Description

Explore how the human body has served as both model and metaphor in architecture from antiquity to the present day. This Routledge Research in Architecture volume examines the profound influence of bodily form on monumental architecture and artistic representation, tracing philosophical perspectives from Plato and Descartes through Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty. The book investigates colossal sculptures and architectural practice within broader discourses of space, time, and media, revealing how architects have drawn inspiration from human proportion and anatomy to shape their most ambitious works. Ideal for architecture students, scholars, and professionals seeking deeper understanding of the theoretical foundations linking corporeal experience to built environment.

Key Features

Routledge Research in Architecture series title offering rigorous academic treatment of monumental design theory and practice.

Traces philosophical frameworks from Platonic and Cartesian thought through contemporary phenomenology to examine embodied architecture.

Analyzes colossal sculptures and architectural praxis as expressions of how human bodies inform spatial and temporal experience.

Explores the relationship between bodily metaphor and exterior architectural form across historical periods and cultural contexts.
