«Controstoria dell'architettura in Italia. Paesaggi e città» is Bruno Zevi's essay, published by Newton Compton in paperback (98 pages, in Italian).
The essay traces the history of the Italian territory from prehistory to the 20th century, interweaving the evolution of cities and agricultural areas. Zevi analyses stages such as the Nuragic civilisation, Magna Graecia, the Roman world or the Baroque, and proposes a modern 'environmental perspective' to understand the organic development of the landscape.
It belongs to the 'Il sapere' collection of Tascabili Economici Newton, where it appeared in 1995; the volume continues 'Architettura. Concetti di una Controstoria' and complements 'Architettura della modernità'.
Aimed at those interested in the history of architecture, urban planning and the Italian landscape.
Bruno Zevi was an Italian architect, historian, professor, curator, author, and editor. Zevi was a vocal critic of "classicising" modern architecture and postmodernism.
