Summary:
"This indispensable new resource is the first English-language anthology of historic preservation theory with an international perspective. It includes close to 100 essential texts spanning three centuries of preservation discourse and theory, from the Enlightenment to the present, each with a critical introduction by the editor. Unique in its geographic and temporal breadth, it shows how ideas stemming from disciplines such as jurisprudence, architecture, art, planning, psychoanalysis, philosophy, and many others were woven together over time into what we now call historic preservation."-- Provided by publisher.
