Leon Battista Alberti: Master Builder of the Renaissance
:
Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472) was one of the most exciting figures of the Italian Renaissance. He wrote the first modern treatise on painting, the first modern manual of classical architecture, and a powerful set of 'dialogues' about the princely families of Florence. But Alberti also made his own spectacular advances in the art of painting and in engineering, and was responsible for some of the most exciting architectural designs in Italy. In this volume, one of our most distinguished Renaissance scholars offers the superlative biography and cultural history that Alberti has long deserved. It is a compelling portrait of a mysterious and original intellectual., Biography / Autobiography ; Historical - General ; Artists, Architects, Photographers ; Photographers.

Leon Battista Alberti., Baumeister der Renaissance
:

Das Buch: Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472) zählt zu den originellsten, kreativsten und aufregendsten Gestalten der italienischen Renaissance. Für Jacob Burckhardt verkörperte er das Ideal des Universalgelehrten, des 'uomo universale', der in Literatur, Malerei und Mathematik genauso bewandert war wie in Architektur und Musik. Wenn das Alberti-Bild seit Burckhardt auch differenzierter geworden ist, bleiben Albertis Hauptverdienste doch unbestritten. So verfasste er den ersten 'modernen' Traktat über Malerei und das erste 'moderne' Handbuch klassischer Architektur, die beide enormen Einfluss auf nachfolgende Künstlergenerationen haben sollten. Er erweckte die vergessene Ästhetik der antiken Architektur zu neuem Leben und dokumentierte als kenntnisreicher und eleganter Kommentator die künstlerische Revolution in seiner Heimatstadt Florenz zu Beginn der Renaissance. Außerdem diente er mehreren bedeutenden Herrschern - darunter auch Papst Nikolaus V. - , Kunstgeschichte ; Alberti, Leon B. ; Architekten (Einz.) ; Renaissance, Kunst; Architektur, Leon Battista Alberti.

The Lost Italian Renaissance: Humanists, Historians, and Latin's Legacy
:
In this groundbreaking work of intellectual history, Christopher Celenza argues that serious interest in the intellectual life of Renaissance Italy can be reinvigorated-and the nature of the Renaissance itself reconceived-by recovering a major part of its intellectual and cultural activity that has been largely ignored since the Renaissance was first 'discovered': the vast body of works-literary, philosophical, poetic, and religious-written in Latin by major figures such as Leonardo Bruni, Lorenzo Valla, Marsilio Ficino, and Leon Battista Alberti, as well as minor but interesting thinkers like Lapo da Castiglionchio the Younger., History - General History ; Neuroscience ; Europe - Italy ; European - General, The Lost Italian Renaissance: Humanists, Historians, and Latin's Legacy

The Emergence of Modern Architecture: A Documentary History, from 1000 to 1800 (Hardback)
:
ISBN: 0415260248 Stock status: Temporarily out of stock Published: Mar 2004 Format: Hardback Pages: 552 The book, a documentary history, records a cognitive history of the emergence of modern architecture. Cutting across disciplinarian and institutional divisions as we know them today, it reconstructs developments within the framework of a cognitive history of the past. Modern is here taken to mean the radical re-thinking of architecture from the end of the tenth century in Europe to the end of the eighteenth century. Among the key debates that mark the period are those that oppose tradition to innovation, canon to discovery, geometrical formality to natural picturesqueness, the functional to the hedonistic. These conceptual changes are interwoven with institutional transformations which are also recorded here: the gradual separation of the architect from the ranks of the craftsperson, the increasing division between the professional categories we recognize today: architect, landscape architect, engineer and urban planner, the struggle of the designer to secure a position as an autonomous specialist, an intellectual, a free and critical commentator upon the state of human affairs. The hypothesis here is that by the end of the eighteenth century, when this documentary history ends, the conceptual, professional and educational structures for the practice and propagation of modern architecture are in place. The foundations of architectural thinking emerge essentially as they still are today.

Humanist Comedies
:
The five comedies included in this volume, three of which have never been translated into English, present a characteristic sampling of comic form as it was interpreted by some of the most important Latin humanists of the Quattrocento. Pier Paolo Vergerio's Paulus (ca. 1390), Philodoxeos fabula (1424) by Leon Battista Alberti, Philogenia et Epiphebus (ca. 1440) by Ugolino Pisani, Chrysis (1444) by Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini (later Pope Pius II), and Tommaso Medio's Epirota (1483) span nearly the entire period and are a valuable gauge of its changing literary tastes, tastes nourished by the ancient comic drama of Plautus and Terence. While the earliest of the humanist comedies seem almost medieval in their moralism, the didacticism of the pulpit is cleverly seasoned with the unabashed realism of the brothel to produce a mixture that looks forward to the more modern, sophisticated comedies written in the vernacular during the Cinquecento., Plays / Drama ; Ancient, Classical & Medieval ; Continental European ; Classical & Medieval Ancient, Humanist Comedies

On Painting (Classics S.) - Alberti, Leon Battista
:
ISBN: 0140433317 Published: Feb 1991 Format: Paperback Pages: 112 Artist, architect, poet and philosopher, Leon Battista Alberti revolutionized the history of art with his theories of perspective in On Painting (1435). Inspired by the order and beauty inherent in nature, his groundbreaking work sets out the principles of distance, dimension and proportion; instructs the painter on how to use the rules of composition, representation, light and colour to create work that is graceful and pleasing to the eye; and stipulates the moral and artistic pre-requisites of the successful painter. On Painting had an immediate and profound influence on Italian Renaissance artists including Ghiberti, Fra Angelico and Veneziano and on later figures such as Leonardo da Vinci, and remains a compelling theory of art. Brief Description: Alberti`s "Della Pittura" was the first modern analytical study of painting. A systematic description of the one-point perspective construction, it was designed to persuade both patron and painter in the Renaissance to discard the old tastes in painting for the new.

Few Renaissance theorists have influenced the development of western architecture as much as Sebastiano Serlio (1475-1554). The collection of books which represents his lifetime's work was to become invaluable to the majority of northern European architects who, never having seen Rome, none the less marvelled at Italian antiquities. Hence when Christopher Wren designed St. Paul's cathedral, and when John Wood designed the streets of Bath, both architects had Serlio's books to hand. On his death Serlio had published the first five volumes of the planned seven-book treatise, and had witnessed their enormous popularity, especially amongst the many patrons and architects eager to emulate the splendours of antiquity and of Italian courts which sought her renaissance. Serlio's treatise begins with the rules of geometry and perspective, described in books one and two respectively, knowledge of which formed the traditional preserve of the painter. Serlio's beautiful woodcut illustrations in book three record the Golden Age of the Roman Empire, her Baths, Temples, Palaces and Arches, whilst his text in book four outlines the rules for designing modern elements ranging from fireplaces to facades based on these monuments. To the Tuscan, Doric, Ionic and Corinthian columns which had been discussed by the Roman author Vitruvius and the great quattrocento philosopher-architect Leon Battista Alberti, Serlio added the Composite and thereby established a canon of five Orders which held authority for over a century. The fifth book illustrates the use of these Orders in twelve temple designs of his own invention. This translation of Serlio's first five books by Vaughan Hart and Peter Hicks replaces theonly other English version, that produced in 1611 by Robert Peake, whose source was not the original Italian but a corrupt Dutch translation. As such this is the first English translation of Serlio's work to be based on his own editions and the first collection in any language of all five books taken from Serlio's corrected originals. It represents a major step in the recognition of Sebastiano Serlio as the most important architectural writer of the sixteenth century.

Interpreting the Renaissance: Princes, Cities, Architects (Harvard University Graduate School of Design S.) (Hardback) - Tafuri, Manfredo
:
ISBN: 0300111584 Published: Jun 2006 Format: Hardback Pages: 520 Manfredo Tafuri (1935 - 1994) is acknowledged as one of Italy's most influential architectural historians. In his final work, "Interpreting the Renaissance", published here in English for the first time (the Italian edition, "Ricerca del Rinascimento", appeared in 1992), Tafuri analyses Renaissance architecture from a variety of perspectives, exploring questions that occupied him for over thirty years. What theoretical terms were used to describe the humanist analogy between architecture and language? Is it possible to identify the political motivations behind the period's new urban strategies? And how does humanism embody both an attachment to tradition and an urge to experiment? Tafuri studies the theory and practice of Renaissance architecture, offering new and compelling readings of its various social, intellectual and cultural contexts, while providing a broad understanding of uses of representation that shaped the entire era. He synthesises the history of architectural ideas and projects through discussions of the great centres of architectural innovation in Italy (Florence, Rome and Venice), key patrons from the middle of the fifteenth century (Pope Nicholas V) to the early sixteenth century (Pope Leo X), and crucial figures such as Leon Battista Alberti, Filippo Brunelleschi, Lorenzo de' Medici, Raphael, Baldassare Castiglione and Giulio Romano. A magnum opus by one of Europe's finest scholars, "Interpreting the Renaissance" is an essential book for anyone interested in the architecture and culture of fifteenth- and sixteenth-century Italy. Brief Description: Analyses Renaissance architecture from a variety of perspectives, exploring questions such as what theoretical terms were used to describe the humanist analogy between architecture and language. This work offers readings of social, intellectual and cultural contexts, while providing a understanding of uses of representation that shaped the era.
