| Beschreibung: | Acknowledgements: "[...] we convened a panel for the Society of Architectural Historians (SAH) annual conference in 2019 which took place in Providence, Rhode Island. This panel was accompanied by a public discussion with members of the European Architectural History Network (EAHN) on questions of architecture and environment. 'Land Air Sea' as a book drew its inspiration from this initial panel and benefited from the creative, collaborative energy from these papers given in 2019." Bibliographie: Seiten 259-288 |
