Overview
This volume in Rizzoli's History of World Architecture series examines the complex architectural history of India, Indonesia, and Indochina. Mario Bussagli combines the art and architecture of these countries, enabling the reader to discover the "differentiated unity" of Asia. Whether it reflects Hindu, Buddhist, Shintoist, or Islamic cosmographies, oriental architecture embodies a profound religious spirit common to the most diverse strands of far Eastern culture and civilization. Mario Bussagli wrote the Introduction and Chapter One on India and Ceylon; and Arcangela Santoro wrote Chapter Two on Indonesia and Indochina. Includes a selected bibliography and over 300 color and black and white photos. Translated from the Italian.
