Seller's Description:
Very Good. Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Pages unmarked. viii, 585 pages: illustrations, 26 cm. "The First Moderns portrays the complex of social and personal relationships, patronage, humanistic learning, and mystical and hermetic philosophy that made up the world of the "classic" in Europe from around 1650 to 1775. Against this background, it traces a subtle but revolutionary change that occurred in European architecture and which aroused issues that still echo in the debates between architectural traditionalists and modernists and between modernists and postmodernists."-MIT Press.
