Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Architecture: From the Earliest Times, Its Present Condition in Europe and the United States; With a Biography of Eminent Architects, and a Glossary of Architectural Terms The perception of the beautiful, is among the noblest of God's gifts to man. When improved by culture, it diffuses over the poor wants of human nature a glory, like sunlight upon the dark and frozen earth. The peasant of the genial South, trains the jessamine over his rude porch, and beneath it, after the weary labour of the day, enjoys the stilly eve. The Swiss mountaineer hangs his picturesque chalet amid the embowering trees of his native Alps, and its beauty delights the passing traveller. With the same earnest longing for the beautiful, the man of wealth calls in the aid of Art, to decorate his more lofty dwelling-place. But not alone the home of man must minister to his love of the beautiful; the Temple, which he consecrates to the worship of his Creator, must rear its stately columns and spread its overarching vault, to form a fit sanctuary for holy thoughts and heavenward aspirations.

Download or read book Follies in America written by Kerry Dean Carso and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-15 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follies in America examines historicized garden buildings, known as "follies," from the nation's founding through the American centennial celebration in 1876. In a period of increasing nationalism, follies—such as temples, summerhouses, towers, and ruins—brought a range of European architectural styles to the United States. By imprinting the land with symbols of European culture, landscape gardeners brought their idea of civilization to the American wilderness. Kerry Dean Carso's interdisciplinary approach in Follies in America examines both buildings and their counterparts in literature and art, demonstrating that follies provide a window into major themes in nineteenth-century American culture, including tensions between Jeffersonian agrarianism and urban life, the ascendancy of middle-class tourism, and gentility and social class aspirations.
