Sinopsis

Historic Architecture Function explores how societal needs like defense, worship, and governance have shaped architectural design throughout history. It examines how buildings were purposefully crafted to fulfill specific functions, revealing insights into a culture's values and priorities. Architectural design was heavily influenced by material availability, engineering expertise, and immediate societal needs. For example, defensive architecture, such as medieval castles, illustrates how strategic considerations dictated design choices to maximize protection.

 
The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from history, archaeology, and sociology to analyze the functional requirements of buildings. It progresses through an examination of defensive, religious, and governmental architecture, organized chronologically and geographically.

 
By focusing on architectural function rather than solely on aesthetics, this study offers a unique perspective valuable to architects, historians, and anyone interested in the built environment.

    Aspects of the Novel

    E. M. Forster

    E.M. Forster's Aspects of the Novel is an innovative and effusive treatise on a literary form that, at the time of publication, had only recently begun to enjoy serious academic consideration. 
      
    First given as a series of lectures at Cambridge University, Aspects of the Novel is Forster's analysis of this great literary form. Here he rejects the 'pseudoscholarship' of historical criticism - 'that great demon of chronology' - that considers writers in terms of the period in which they wrote and instead asks us to imagine the great novelists working together in a single room. He discusses aspects of people, plot, fantasy and rhythm, making illuminating comparisons between novelists such as Proust and James, Dickens and Thackeray, Eliot and Dostoyevsky - the features shared by their books and the ways in which they differ. Written in a wonderfully engaging and conversational manner, this penetrating work of criticism is full of Forster's habitual irreverence, wit and wisdom. 
      
    E. M. Forster (1879-1970) was a noted English author and critic and a member of the Bloomsbury group.
