Progress on the Reading Front
Today I sat down and made my reading list for spring break, and discovered that…well, I’m way behind. Before the end of break, I will need to read:
The 6 Architectural Records that have accumulated over the course of this term and last
4 Dwells
The remaining half of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Autobiography
Seven Lamps of Architecture
Strange Details (which luckily I finished after discovering the amount of reading ahead of me)
Not to mention I’m still 3/4 through Toward a New Architecture by Corbu, which for the time being I have put on hold, partly because I felt particularly affronted that a recent guest speaker (who I didn’t enjoy, and who subtly let out that she didn’t really like one of my favorite professors) assumed that nobody in the lecture hall had read Seven Lamps, or even heard of it! So basically Corbu just got replaced by Ruskin because my architectural literariness was inadvertently insulted.
