| Course Objectives: | Architecture as technocultural as well as a field of sociocultural production necessitates thought constructions to be actualized. the objective of the course is to discuss the immediate relation of these constructions, which are socially and historicaly contingent, to architecture and raise awareness to "texts producing architecture" and "architectures producing texts". |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; I. Assess architecture as social formation within techno-cultural and socio-cultural projections. II. Criticise texts written on and/or related to architecture and the medium of literal and visual enunciation producing texts. III. Conclude that texts change in each and every socio-cultural formation, that they are pluralistic and hence, they are historical. IV. Associate correlations of architecture-history-theory-criticism to recognise architecture as a field of reproduction and relate this comprehension to design implementation. |
| Texts on architecture and/or texts on architectural issues and literal and visual texts produced by architectural thought comprise the course content. |
