Course Description:This course is a survey of theoretical and critical literature on contemporary architecture. It explores the texts of post-modernism, post-structuralism, critical and post-critical discourses as well as current debates in globalization, post-humanism, and environmentalism in the architectural discipline from 1968 to the present.

Architectural discourse involves a range of institutional forms, requiring that we examine texts not only for the arguments they contain, but also as visual and graphic means for structuring an architectural proposition. Throughout, we will consider the role of argument and image to understand documents on their own terms and within broader cultural frameworks. Writing will be emphasized as the medium through which individual ideas are developed, in the belief that a strong theoretical framework is necessary for developing new directions in contemporary architectural culture.
