Fundamentals of Engineering Drawing, The: With an Introduction to Interactive Computer Graphics for Design and Production

Description

Arising from the study of art history, this book presents a radically new approach to the problem of historical change. George Kubler draws upon new insights in fields such as anthropology and linguistics and replaces the notion of style with the idea of a linked succession of works distributed in time as recognizably early and late versions of the same action. The result is a view of historical sequence aligned on continuous change more than upon the ecstatic concept of style–the usual basis for conventional histories of art.
