内容説明・目次

内容説明

Ananda K. Coomaraswamy pioneered one form of cultural studies in India. One direction of his analysis of Indian civilization extended to Indian ideas and theories of architecture. This volume presents the essays that best represent Coomaraswamy's thought on the hermeneutics of Indian architecture, concentrating on its "why" not its "how".
