    Best. Meme. Ever. The complete lack of overlap between the four lists from the League is also pretty amusing.Report

    The scary thing is that I’ve devoted nearly as much attention to certain Youtube videos (ahem, Trapped in the Closet) as I have to many of these books.Report

    Alexander wasn’t alone in his application of grammar to architecture. There was a major school in Eindhoven with something called the SAR design methodology. It was true to its time. SAR was used to develop a lot of public housing in Holland, but also in various projects in Mexico and Venezuela where it was combined with a movement towards “people’s architecture” and architecture by yourself.

    My favorite Cram story is at http://www.kaleberg.com/matter/matterfaith.html, and it reveals a profound lack of faith, and a profound lack of understanding of the medieval world. The great gothic cathedrals were a combination of church and market place with wood, salt, cloth and other products on sale.Report

    Mr. Schmitz,
    Good choices! I think you asked if I was going to post about Either/Or, and indeed I am planning to, although I’m not sure I’ve quite understood all of it yet. Actually, I’m planning on posting about at least half of these books. Maybe we could do a group read of the Brothers Karamazov…Report
