Summary:
Manfredo Tafuri (1935–1994), the celebrated Italian architectural historian, published "L’architettura moderna" in Giappone in 1964. At the time, Tafuri was twenty-nine years old and had not visited Japan. Here, translated into English for the first time, the book presents a rare outsider’s view of the Metabolist movement and figures such as Kenzo Tange by one of the most astute critics of the second part of the twentieth century. Tafuri’s ideas about Japanese architecture were primarily formed through texts, including magazine articles and contemporary photographs. How did Tafuri come to select the achievements of Japanese architects as the focus of his reflections on modern architecture? What happens when a historian of architecture relies purely on photographs for making judgments about a building? Edited and introduced by Mohsen Mostafavi, this volume reflects on these questions, and more, and includes a rich collection of images.

Summary:
Déclarée en avril 1931, attaquée le 18 juillet 1936 par l'armée de Franco, écrasée le 28 mars 1939, la Seconde République espagnole fut brève mais l'idéologie républicaine a durablement influencé le développement moderne de la culture et notamment de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme. Cette période unique a ainsi permis l'éclosion de nombreux projets et réalisations dans tous les domaines de la construction, que ce soit les immeubles collectifs, les maisons individuelles, les infrastructures industrielles ou la réorganisation et l'extension de villes comme Barcelone et Madrid. Ce livre présente un panorama complet et illustré du travail de toute une génération d'architectes, replacé dans son contexte historique qui se caractérise principalement par une attitude progressiste tendant à combiner l'austérité formelle d'un paysage urbain rationalisé et une éthique civique, aspiration qui, comme tant d'autres, fut anéantie par la guerre civile. En annexe, les biographies de quarante architectes espagnols de la période.

Summary:
This second volume of "The details of modern architecture" continues the study of the relationships of the ideals of design and the realities of construction in modern architecture, beginning in the late 1920s and extending to the present day. It contains a wealth of new information on the construction of modern architecture at a variety of scales from minute details to general principles. There are over 500 illustrations, including 130 original photographs and 230 original axonometric drawings, arranged to explain the technical, aesthetic, and historical aspects of the building form. Most of the modern movements in architecture have identified some paradigm of good construction, arguing that buildings should be built like Gothic cathedrals, like airplanes, like automobiles, like ships, or like primitive dwellings. Ford examines the degree to which these models were followed, either in spirit or in form, and reveals much about both the theories and techniques of modern architecture, including the extent to which the current constructional theories of high tech and deconstruction are dependent on the traditional modernist paradigms, as well as the ways in which all of these theories differ from the realities of modern building. Individual chapters treat the work of Eliel and Eero Saarinen, Eric Gunnar Asplund, Richard Neutra, Alvar Aalto, Le Corbusier, and Louis Kahn, as well as the Case Study, high tech, postmodern, and deconstructivist architects. Among the individual buildings documented are Eliel Saarinen's Cranbrook School, Asplund's Woodland Cemetery, Fuller's Dymaxion house, the Venturi house, the Eames and other Case Study houses, the concrete buildings of Le Corbusier, Aalto's Säynätsalo Town Hall, and Kahn's Exeter Library and Salk Institute.
