Forging Architectural Tradition: National Narratives, Monument Preservation and Architectural Work in the Nineteenth Century

Tijekom devetnaestog stoljeća dolazi do promjene u načinu na koji su suvremenici gledali na arhitektonske objekte iz daleke prošlosti. Takve građevine, bilo da se radi o crkvama, dvorcima, kapelicama ili raznim drugim građevinama, nisu bile cijenjene samo zbog estetskih vrijednosti, već i zbog uloge koju su imale u antičko doba te uloge podsjetnika na važne događaje iz nacionalne prošlosti. Graditeljsko naslijeđe često je bilo (i još uvijek jest) važan element izgradnje nacije. Autori se u ovoj knjizi bave procesom izgradnje nacionalnih mitova oko pojedinih arhitektonskih objekata. Dovedeni su u pitanje nacionalni narativi, kao i pozicija graditeljskog naslijeđa u devetnaestom i ranom dvadesetom stoljeću.
