Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
It is argued that the transformation of vernacular architecture in the seventeenth century may in part be explained by a changing view of how the house should express the standing of its owner. The sixteenth century had seen the introduction of renaissance architectural detail as a symbol of education, status and power. In the seventeenth century, a more complete architectural language was developed at a high social level, embracing the overall form of the house. It is argued that the loss of local vernacular traditions may have been due to a simultaneous weakening of old structures of deference and authority, making possible the spread of the new style by freeing it of its status associations, and that by the eighteenth century, vernacular building had come to consist of a number of regional variations on a national style, and associations with status had been replaced by concern for stylistic correctness. | |
