- Frampton’s Forewords, etc. An Introduction
- Abstract
- Frampton’s Critical Regionalism is notable for the degree to which he conflates analysis and judgment. The forewords, prefaces and introductory essays to new books on those architects or by those writers who address this theme have, over time, assumed strategic importance for the historian in securing his critical fortunes – an enduring process of confirmation and demonstration of a position carved out, in some cases, decades earlier. This essay reads across these short but pointed pieces to see how Frampton continues to explore the ideas, tropes, or values that secure his enduring relevance to contemporary architecture culture.
