Synopsis
An in-depth study of a neglected aspect of architectural interest Only few pre-industrial manufacturing buildings survive to this day: here they are photographed, often for the first time Of great interest to economic historians The remarkable career of the architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) is largely due to an extraordinary moment of prosperity in the Veneto mainland, both in the city and in the countryside: a boom due in large measure to a little-studied revolution in manufacturing. This book brings to light for the first time the architecture of these early industries, especially the production of textiles (wool, silk), mining and metalworking, paper manufacture, ceramics, sawmilling and leather-tanning. The huge surge in patent applications to the Venetian Senate in the period highlights the parallel technological improvements in both efficiency and quality. Former proto-industrial buildings across the Veneto, studied at first-hand, reveal the efficiency of hydraulic power and smooth-running mechanical processes. Water-power, a clean, renewable energy source, and structures made of natural, traditional materials, have much to teach today's civilization., * An in-depth study of a neglected aspect of architectural interest* Only few pre-industrial manufacturing buildings survive to this day: here they are photographed, often for the first time* Of great interest to economic historiansThe remarkable career of the architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) is largely due to an extraordinary moment of prosperity in the Veneto mainland, both in the city and in the countryside: a boom due in large measure to a little-studied revolution in manufacturing.

- s***t (85)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis book arrived in great condition for being a used text book. There are no markings that I can find and the only evidence it had been read before was the sticker on the back saying it came from the university's used book section. Great quality, great communication with the seller, and fantastic quick shipping. I bought this for a friend studying censorship in the US and abroad and I know he will be thrilled to have it.
