00:00An inviting exploration of architecture across cultures and centuries by one of the field's
00:06eminent authors. In this sweeping history, from the Stone Age to the present day,
00:11Witold Rybczynski shows how architectural ideals have been affected by technological,
00:16economic, and social changes, and by changes in taste. The host of examples ranges from places
00:22of worship such as Hagia Sophia and Brunelleschi's Duomo to living spaces such as the Katsura
00:28Imperial Villa and the Alhambra, national icons such as the Lincoln Memorial and the Sydney Opera
00:33House, and skyscrapers such as the Seagram Building and Beijing's CCTV headquarters.
00:39Rybczynski's narrative emphasizes the ways that buildings across time and space are united by
00:44the human desire for order, meaning, and beauty. This is the story of architecture's physical
00:49manifestation of the universal aspiration to celebrate, honor, and commemorate, and an
00:54exploration of the ways that each building is a unique product of patrons, architects, and builders.
01:00Firm in opinion, even-handed, and rooted in scholarship, this book will delight anyone
01:05interested in understanding the buildings they use, visit, and pass by each day.
