520 $aThe Hypnerotomachia Poliphili has long been considered the most legendary and enigmatic architectural book ever written. Since its publication in 1499, it has fascinated architects and historians with its vast display of architectural knowledge and its erudite reading of the related arts of landscape, engineering, painting, and sculpture.
520 8 $aBecause of its dense, almost Joycean prose - a polyglot concoction of Latin, Greek, and vernacular Italian, with a smattering of Hebrew, Arabic, and hieroglyphics - the book has received relatively little analysis. Liane Lefaivre offers the closest critical-theoretical reading to date, placing it within both the historical context of the quattro-cento and the rethinking of the metaphor of the architectural body.
