書籍簡介

“維特科沃教授在人文建築方面的研究是學術的傑作。——Kenneth Clark爵士《建築評論》

這是四十年前的經典之作的第四版。從阿爾伯蒂到帕拉第奧，這本暢銷的經典著作解釋了某些建築形式的真正意義，揭示了當時建築和文化之間的聯繫。與人文主義的建築學相一致的出版計劃，這一重要的參考文獻以一種新的大正方形的格式被極好地再現。已故的魯道夫·維特科沃是居住在英國倫敦的大學教授和傑出學者。

"Professor Wittkowera s...studies of humanist architecture are masterpieces of scholarship."--Sir Kenneth Clark, Architectural Review. 

A fourth edition of the forty--year--old classic. Focusing on the principal architects of that time--from Alberti to Palladio--this bestselling classic explains the true significance of certain architectural forms, bringing to light the connections between the architecture and culture of the period.With publication scheduled to coincide with that of Architectonics of Humanism, this important reference is superbly reproduced in a new, large square format. The late RUDOLF WITTKOWER was a college professor and eminent scholar residing in London, England.

作者簡介

魯道夫·維特科沃（Rudolf Wittkower）1901年出生於柏林。當納粹掌權時，他是倫敦華堡學院的動畫師之一。1941年，他與弗裏茨·薩克斯(Fritz Saxl)一起組織了英國藝術與地中海展覽，該展覽的出版(1948)形成了關於沃堡研究所目標和方法的重要文件。作為一位研究意大利文藝復興和巴洛克藝術的偉大學者，維特科沃曾在倫敦大學和哥倫比亞大學任教。他的著作都是重要的學術著作，包括吉安·洛倫佐·貝尼尼(與H. Bruer合著，1931)、《温莎城堡卡拉契的素描》(1952)、吉安·洛倫佐·貝尼尼、《羅馬巴洛克雕塑家》(1955)、《意大利藝術與建築》(1600-1750)、《生於土星之下》(與Margot Wittkower合著，1963)、《米開朗基羅神尊:1564年佛羅倫薩學院對他逝世的致敬》(與Margot Wittkower合著，1964)。此外，他還經常為《Warbung and Courtauld學院學報》、《藝術通報》、《Burlington雜誌》和《建築歷史學家學會學報》等刊物撰稿。

Rudolf Wittkower was born in Berlin in 1901. Leaving Germany when the Nazis came to power, he was one of the animators of the Warburg Institute of London. In 1941 he organized, with Fritz Saxl, the exhibition British Art and the Mediterranean, the publication of which (1948) forms an important document of the aims and methods of the Warburg Institute. A great scholar of Italian Renaissance and Baroque art, Wittkower taught at both the University of London and Columbia University. His books, all important works of scholarship, include Die Zeichnungen des Gian Lorenzo Bernini (with H. Bruer, 1931), The Drawings of the Carracci at Windsor Castle (1952), Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the Sculptor of Roman Baroque (1955), Art and Architecture in Italy, 1600-1750 (1958), Born under Saturn (with Margot Wittkower, 1963), and Divine Michelangelo: The Florentine Academy's Homage on His Death in 1564 (with Margot Wittkower, 1964). In addition, he was a frequent contributor to the Journal of the Warbung and Courtauld Institute, the Art Bulletin, Burlington Magazine and the Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians, among others.
