INIGO JONES ON STONEHENGE

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Inigo Jones was the court architect of King James 1 (1566-1625) who was sent to the prehistoric ruins of Stonehenge with the aim of demonstrating that they were the remains of a temple built by the Romans. Caroline van Eck’s essay explores the logic and context of the architect’s methodology and findings within the context of then and now.
