The monographic anthology Architecture and Anthroposophy bridges the gap between the traditional architectural history and the anthroposophical narratives. Our mission is for the first time to integrate anthroposophical ideas on architecture with mainstream arthistorical ideas; and to illuminate the influence of the organic-spiritual impulse on architecture of the twentieth century. It is a highly original integrative work and a unique experience of international collaboration. All chapters are written by the best specialists in the field, the most distinguished European and American scholars and architects, and translated by prominent professionals into Russian from English, French and German. Book design: 268 pages, 8"x 12" hard cover format, super-cover, 348 illustrations (189 colored). Editor Anna Sokolina.

...I
would like to recommend strongly the acquisition of the following book:
*Arkhitektura i Antroposofiia* [Architecture

Though in Russian, it has English summations and is a book no self-respecting
architecture library can be without...
