书写理性与感知的《建筑史》

Writing Histore de l’Architecture of Reason and Perception

19世纪法国工程师兼建筑史学家奥古斯特·舒瓦西,著有两卷本的巨著—《建筑史》。此书将建造作为贯穿几千年建筑历史的线索,一经出版便引起了学界的巨大反响,并长期作为建筑历史教学的参考文献,对部分现代主义运动先驱及我国近代建筑师理念的形成产生了较为深刻的影响。然而限于语言藩篱、文献缺乏等原因,舒瓦西的著作鲜为国内研究学者所研读,更无针对其写作特点及现代影响的系统性研究发表。本文通过对法文原著及多语言研究成果的阅读与梳理,对舒瓦西的成长历程及建筑历史编纂的原则与基础进行了初步的分析与总结,并得出《建筑史》中结构理性主义、地域视野及如画思想的具体表现与成因,以期进一步追溯与探讨其与现代主义理论的关联。

Auguste Choisy,a French 19thcentury engineer and architectural historian,was the author of Histoire de l’architecture.This book,which uses construction as a thread throughout centuries of architectural history,has significantly impacted the forerunners of the modernist movement.However,Choisy’s writing has received little attention from scholars due to language limitations and material shortage.Through a review of the original text and research findings,this paper analyzes and summarizes Choisy’s principles and foundations of writing.It then concludes the manifestations and causes of structural rationalism,regional vision,and picturesque thinking.
