PY - 2010/// CY - Cambridge, UK PB - Polity Press KW - Architecture KW - Historiography N1 - Includes bibliographical references (p. [156]-163) and index N2 - 'How do historians of architecture organize past time and relate it to the present? How does historical evidence translate into historical narrative? Should architectural history be useful for practising architects? If so, how?
