These essays, edited by Roberta Marcaccio and newly translated from the Italian, reveal how, more than any other architect of the twentieth century, Rogers positioned himself as a mediator between the heroic generation of the modern masters and the younger intellectuals who went on to shape the contextualist turns of architectural postmodernism in the 1970s.

Summary:
Architecture manifests as a space of concealment and unconcealment, lethe and alêtheia, enclosure and disclosure, where its making and agency are both hidden and revealed. With an urgency to amplify narratives that are overlooked, silenced and unacknowledged in and by architectural spaces, histories and theories, this book contends the need for a critical study of hiding in the context of architectural processes. It urges the understanding of inherent opportunities, power structures and covert strategies, whether socio-cultural, geo-political, environmental or economic, as they are related to their hidescapes – the constructed landscapes of our built environments participating in the architectures of hiding.

As buildings recede into the background of everyday life, the myriad forces that shape our natural, social, and political landscapes hide in plain sight. Embedded within the spatial and material organizations of the built environment are ideas of value, hierarchy, and control that tilt the ground and influence perception in the name of endless competing interests. This issue of ''Perspecta'' considers the complexities and potentialities of architectural concealment, obfuscation, and mimicry; of the power inherent in architecture's expanding capacity as media. In the veiled extents of our physical and digital worlds, what is still not found?

Loosely inspired by Jean Genet's The Maids--a seminal example of Theatre of the Absurd that renders surreal the intricate power dynamics that exist between people of divergent socioeconomic groups and exploits the volatility of social identity--Soy Mi Madre portrays the social realities of this region through the melodramatic lens of the telenovela.

Summary:
For centuries, women have influenced architecture worldwide by exerting power over space through their writing. By exploring a wide variety of sources, from diaries and travelogues to inventories and political pamphlets, this book expands architectural histories to include these women. Female spatial agencies are revealed using rare written sources, new methodologies, and in-depth re-readings of canonical histories. Women from all walks of life, writing as clients, users, or critics, are relevant voices for understanding the built environment’s past. Examining specific spaces such as churches, homes, gardens, or boulevards, it proposes a novel take on feminist historiographies.
