Less is Enough: On Architecture and Asceticism
Product Description
Less is Enough: On Architecture and Asceticism
Charting the rise of asceticism in early Christianity and its institutionalisation with the medieval monasteries, Pier Vittorio Aureli examines how the basic unit of the reclusive life - the monk's cell - becomes the foundation of private property. And from there, he argues, it all starts to go wrong.
