43. Vitruvius vitruvius DE ARCHITECTURA. vitruvius Pollio ( ? 50 villas. Thereis little that vitruvius did not touch on, one way or another. http://community.middlebury.edu/~harris/Texts/Vitruvius.html

VITRUVIUS: DE ARCHITECTURA Vitruvius Pollio ( ? 50 -26 B.C.) is the author of a remarkable book on the art of Architecture, which was published probably in 28 B.C., and was for the Romans and much later for the world of the classical Renaissance, the master treatise on the art of building. But it was far more than that, it ranges in its ten books over everything of interest and importance to the building trades, from the mixing of mortar from proper materials, to the acoustics in a stone threaten, and even to the art work which as fresco style was used to decorate gentlefolks' villas. There is little that Vitruvius did not touch on, one way or another. His books had a huge influence on the West since l500, and only well into the 20 th century did its influence start to break down with the new ideas from the BauHaus and modernism, along with the use of steel as the primary building material for large edifices. If you see Post Offices everywhere with Roman imitation columns in front, that is a sign that Vitruvius has been there. Classicists tend to be literary snobs, and always remark that his writing "has no literary merit...". But his style is one of the few remaining examples of how Romans actually wrote down their information, how they documented their extensive knowledge in a dozen areas from construction of building, to medicine, to law. So I have made a selection of a few pages of Vitruvius as an example of that rare phenomenon "ordinary Latin writing". Caesar's commentaries are stylistically extraordinary, not at all what they seem to the student puzzling over the ablative absolutes and indirect discourse. Plautus has passages which even in verse are ordinary, but all is cast in a Grecizing play format, so you Ave to extract the ordinary wording from what is after all a comic play.

A Green Vitruvius - Principles and Practice of Sustainable Architectural Design Two thousand years ago the Roman architect Marcus Vitruvius Pollio wrote the first books on architecture and established the concept of the pattern book offering design principles and solutions that is still familiar today. This publication is a green pattern book for today. A Green Vitruvius is a wonderful resource that certainly lives up to its subtitle Environmental Building News the book provides an excellent holistic approach to the subject Eco Tech The Architectural Review Green, or sustainable, or environmentally-friendly architecture is not simply an environmental benefit. It is place-sensitive; in a globalising world it leads to location-specific architecture by responding to local climatic conditions and using local materials. It also offers better architectural quality with more natural and fewer artificial inputs; not only is less more, less is also beautiful.

Vitruvius also included a section on human proportions. Because it is the only antique treatise on architecture to have survived, De architectura has been an invaluable source of information for scholars. The rediscovery of Vitruvius during the Renaissance greatly fueled the revival of classicism during that and subsequent periods.

welcome history - vitruvius - other men ... about this site vitruvius Marcus Vitruvius was a Roman architect in 1 BCE and authored the famous treatise on architecture entitled De Architectura. The treatise is broken into 10 different books, each dealing with aspects of architecture, city planning, and machines. His book was the authority on these subjects up through the Renaissance, and still has influences in modern architecture today. It is in the beginning of Book III, in his discussion on the building of temples, where the concept of Virtruvian Man emerges: Similarly, in the members of a temple there ought to be the greatest harmony in the symmetrical relations of the different parts to the general magnitude of the whole. Then again, in the human body the central point is naturally the navel. For if a man can be placed flat on his back, with his hands and feet extended, and a pair of compasses centered at his navel, the fingers and toes of his two hands and feet will touch the circumference of a circle described therefrom. And just as the human body yields a circular outline, so too a square figure may be found from it. For if we measure the distance from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, and then apply that measure to the outstretched arms, the breadth will be found to be the same as the height, as in the case of plane surfaces which are completely square.

53. Who Was Vitruvius? The author of what is thought to be the first book on architecture wasa first century BCE Roman architect named Marcus vitruvius Pollio. http://www.vitruvian.org/vitruvius/

The author of what is thought to be the first book on architecture was a first century BCE Roman architect named Marcus Vitruvius Pollio. His De Architectura Libri Decem (Ten Books on Architecture) carefully described existing practices, not only in the design and construction of buildings, but also in what are today thought of as engineering disciplines. His books include such varied topics as the manufacture of building materials and dyes (material science), machines for heating water for public baths (chemical engineering), amplification in ampitheaters (acoustics), and the design of roads and bridges (civil engineering). His writing is prescriptive and gives direct advice: "I have drawn up definite rules to enable you, by observing them, to have personal knowledge of the quality both of existing buildings and of those which are yet to be constructed." Leonardo da Vinci drew Proportional Study of Man in the Manner of Vitruvius in about 1487 CE as an illustration for a book about Vitruvius. The drawing depicts a "man of perfect symmetry" as described by the architect. What better subject to be the namesake of a Masonic Lodge?

V I T R U V I U S M arcus Vitruvius Pollio was a Roman ARCHITECT and ENGINEER in the 1st Century B.C.E. who wrote the treatise the Ten Books on Architecture for the reigning Caesar, which is popularly regarded as "the oldest and most influential work on architecture in existence." ( In the text Vitruvius outlines the realm of ARCHITECTURE to include understanding nature, city planning, building materials, ARCHITECTURAL design, the origins of ARCHITECTURAL elements, building typologies, paints, aqueducts and wells, planetary movement and the zodiac, sundials and water clocks, and finally, about ARCHITECTURAL machines. In all, Vitruvius demonstrates the need for the ARCHITECT to achieve a general understanding of nature, the BUILT ENVIRONMENT , and humanity so as to build holistically, "with due reference to durability, convenience, and beauty." ( In Book I, for example, it is stated that ARCHITECTURAL education is to include both theory and practice, manual skill and scholarship: "Let [the ARCHITECT ] be educated, skilful with the pencil, instructed in geometry, know much history, have followed the philosophers with attention, understand music, have some knowledge of medicine, know the opinions of the jurists, and be acquainted with astronomy and the theory of the heavens." ( This approach explains why Vitruvius thought the "four elements" of fire, water, earth, and air were critical to understanding nature, humans, and the

Rowland, Thomas Noble Howe Hardback Temporarily unavailable - available from April 2003 The only full treatise on architecture and its related arts to survive from classical antiquity, the De Architectura libri decem (Ten Books on Architecture) is the single most important work of architectural history in the Western world, having shaped humanist architecture and the image of the architect from the Renaissance to the present. This new, critical edition of Vitruvius’ Ten Books of Architecture is the first to be published for an English-language audience in more than half a century. Expressing the range of Vitruvius’ style, the translation, along with the critical commentary and illustrations, aims to shape a new image of the Vitruvius who emerges as an inventive and creative thinker, rather than the normative summarizer, as he was characterized in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Reviews ‘ this is an important publishing event in the study of architectural history. With Vitruvius now made less obscure, we can see with much greater clarity the inherent flexibility of the Classical system at the time when there was no such thing as Classical architecture - only architecture.’Architects Journal

Name Vitruvius Occupation: From Son of: Occupation: Dates De arch. belongs to the last period of his life. De arch. was dedicated to Octavian, after Actium, but before the title Augustus was commonly used, and Vitruvius uses it only once, and though the Augustan building program had already been launched, all buildings mentioned belong to the early years, so can be dated between 31 and soon after 27 BC. Brief biography What little is known about his life is derived from internal evidence of de architectura . Vitruvius is his family name; Faventinus says his cognomen (last name) was Pollio. I do not know the evidence for Marcus as praenomen. Worked in some (unspecified) capacity for Julius Caesar; Octavian employed him to maintain siege engines and artillery. Then received patronage of Octavia, Augustus' sister. Only civil engineering he is known to have done was basilica at Fanum Fortunae (mod. Fano). C1 AD one Lucius Vitruvius Cerdo, a freedman, was architect of the Arch of the Gavii at Verona. Context Works References DSB Supp.1.514-521

This facsimile edition includes a preface by Leon Krier as well as texts by Alan Plattus and Christiane Collins. "the variety and originality of the illustrations in Civic Art will no doubt be the greatest attraction of this reedition. It is not only the most complete single-volume survey of the canonical bases of urbanism from ancient Greco-Roman colonnades to the medieval spaces of Siena and Bruges, to the more formal squares such as Pienza or the French Places Royales, to Haussmann's Paris and Burnham's Chicago, but also inclusive of a scintillating collection of uncommon and forgotten design ... Yet it would be a shame to forgo Hegemann's text in pursuit of the pictures, because it is full of astute historical and formal observations." Richard Ingersoll, Design Book Review
