Black Cabin, White House --Notes --Bibliography --Index --About the AuthorSites Unseen examines the complex intertwining of race and architecture in nineteenth and early-twentieth century American culture, the period not only in which American architecture came of age professionally in the U.S. but also in which ideas about architecture became a prominent part of broader conversations about American culture, history, politics, and—although we have not yet understood this clearly—race relations. This rich and copiously illustrated interdisciplinary study explores the ways that American writing between roughly 1850 and 1930 concerned itself, often intensely, with the racial implications of architectural space primarily, but not exclusively, through domestic architecture.In addition to identifying an archive of provocative primary materials, Sites Unseen draws significantly on important recent scholarship in multiple fields ranging from literature, history, and material culture to architecture, cultural geography, and urban planning. Together the chapters interrogate a variety of expressive American vernacular forms, including the dialect tale, the novel of empire, letters, and pulp stories, along with the plantation cabin, the West Indian cottage, the Latin American plaza, and the “Oriental” parlor. These are some of the overlooked plots and structures that can and should inform a more comprehensive consideration of the literary and cultural meanings of American architecture. Making sense of the relations between architecture, race, and American writing of the long nineteenth century—in their regional, national, and hemispheric contexts—Sites Unseen provides a clearer view not only of this catalytic era but also more broadly of what architectural historian Dell Upton has aptly termed the social experience of the built environment.America and the long 19th century.American literature20th centuryHistory and criticismArchitecture and literatureRace in literatureArchitecture in literatureAmerican literature19th centuryHistory and criticismAmerican literatureHistory and criticism.Architecture and literature.Race in literature.Architecture in literature.American literatureHistory and criticism.810.9357Gleason William A.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1535856DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910781667703321Sites Unseen3784241UNINA01196nam0 22002651i 450 UON0040806520231205104727.93320120405d1949 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||Storia e storiografia nell'illuminismo dal corso parallelo svolto nell'Università di Roma nell'anno accademico 1942-43Vincenzo PacificiTivoliSocietà Tiburtina di Storia e d'Arte1949XV, 342 p.22 cm.001UON004080672001 Note di storiografiaStoriografiaUONC014444FITivoliUONL002083PACIFICIVincenzo G.UONV107110211082Società Tiburtina di Storia e d'ArteUONV279415650ITSOL20250523RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00408065SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI VAR A 0116 SI MR 33516 5 0116 BuonoStoria e storiografia nell'illuminismo dal corso parallelo svolto nell'Università di Roma nell'anno accademico 1942-431345773UNIOR
