Title
Architecture and 'Environmentality' in the Nineteenth Century
Abstract
The author explains that a profound transformations occurred in Western architecture around the turn of the nineteenth century with a “cult of styles” that began with neoclassicism and quickly expanded into Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, and eclecticism. A sub-section of his essay is titled "Picturesque in Lower Canada"(p. 70-75) and focuses on how the British in the colony respond emotionally to the environment in both literature, art, and architecture.
