(syllabus)
This course covers a temporal space between the last decade of XIX century and the end of XX century and gets through the complexity of historical tangles, which carried out to the birth of the modern forms and its rise. It is considered as a wide-ranging space which comprises not only the works of the innovative architects, bound up with the avant-garde or with the great ideals (like the design of machinery or the organicism), but also the works sometimes revolutionary that refers to the vernacular tradition. This course is divided into four lines: the great, general themes (the historical contest, the programmes, the ideas); the great figures of architects, the philology and constructive analysis of works (both realized and only planned) and the historiographical interpretations. A specific series of lessons will point out the intersections between art and architecture.
