This book offers a comprehensive exploration of Andrea Palladio's architectural legacy, marking the 500th anniversary of his birth. Through a series of expert studies and lectures, the book delves into Palladio’s influence on architecture and his reinterpretation of the classical principles of Roman antiquity.
The book brings together contributions from important scholars such as James S. Ackerman, Mario Docci, and Fernando Marías, who provide detailed analyses of the technical precision of Palladio’s designs, the evolution of his proportions, and how his ideas have been reinterpreted in various cultural contexts. These studies help to understand how Palladio not only revolutionized Renaissance architecture but also left an indelible mark on later movements such as Neoclassicism and Neopalladianism.
The multidisciplinary approach of the book is enriched by the perspectives of authors who explore Palladio’s influence beyond Europe, extending to Latin America, where his principles were adapted to new geographical and cultural realities. This broad vision highlights the universality of his architectural language.
In addition to his architectural impact, the book addresses Palladio’s crucial role as a theorist through his treatise *I Quattro Libri dell’Architettura*, a work that remains a reference for architects and scholars worldwide. Overall, this publication serves as an essential tribute to Palladio’s work and to the specialists who, through their research, keep his influence alive in contemporary architecture.
