Its comprehensive and in-depth analyses make this book a reference work in the field of Vitruvian scholarship.Summary: Vitruvs De architectura ist das einzig erhaltene Werk der Antike über Architektur, bis heute wird es intensiv rezipiert. Im vorliegenden Band werden verschiedene Aspekte von Vitruvs weitreichender Wirkungsgeschichte beleuchtet. Dabei zeigt sich u.a., dass Vitruv kontinuierlich missverstanden wurde um das Neue zu rechtfertigen. Durch die umfassende Behandlung der verschiedenen Themenkomplexe wird der Band zu einem Referenzwerk der Vitruvforschung.
