Architecture and Ekphrasis: Space, Time and the Embodied Description of the Past

Dana Arnold

This well-illustrated, accessibly written book examines how eighteenth-century prints and drawings of antique architecture operated as representations of thought. Combining original archival material with cultural theory, the book considers the idea of the past and the role of space and time in the visual ekphrasis or description of its architecture. – .
