Harry Francis Molgrave: Modern Architectural Theory (1673-1968)

The 1673-1968 modern architectural theory is the first extensive survey of the European and American architecture theory of 300 years of Western modern history. The author, Harry Francis Mulgrave, looks at the change in architecture discourse in the'social and political contexts'. And while exploring how the various ideas that formed the narrative evolved philosophically and conceptually, we discuss the whole relationship between reality and theory. In this process, the author ponders the words of the architects who were directly involved in Western architecture. The sound of the sound that is echoing consistently in this book is the product of ‘self-consciousness and its struggle.’. It explains the diversity of intellectual rationalism, British empirical thinking, Enlightenment radical theories, intellectual ambitions and historical arguments that have emerged in the 19th century, and how architecture is woven into the social upheavals of the mid-twenties, and it allows us to create a very interesting and fascinating way of doing this.
