The formative aspects of architecture from the late 18th to the early 20th centuries, with special emphasis on British architecture and associated activity in the fields of engineering and building construction, town development and landscape architecture. Detailed studies of various periods within this broad spectrum are made, exploring issues of spatial organisation, construction, architectural theory, architectural grammar, the physical, social and economic context of building, and the role of the architect in society.
