查尔斯五世和他的格拉纳达皇宫

Charles V and His Palace in Gra-nada

位于西班牙格拉纳达的查尔斯五世皇宫是西方建筑史上一个非常特别的案例。它坐落在欧洲大陆西南端的伊比利亚半岛上,本来是为神圣罗马帝国皇帝查尔斯五世和他的妻子伊莎贝拉皇后而设计的寝宫,与中世纪摩尔王朝的王宫毗邻,两者同踞一丘之巅,一新一旧,相得益彰。格拉纳达宫外方内圆,立面采用的是当时最'摩登'的设计手法,也即16世纪初以罗马为代表的文艺复兴全盛期的风格。但这座皇宫却远非对意大利建筑亦步亦趋的抄袭;相反,它的原创性、纪念性和恢弘的尺度都超越了同时代意大利的世俗建筑。实际上,我们只有从较晚出现的意大利建筑作品中才能找到可与其匹配的例子。本文拟就格拉纳达宫之诞生和存在的理由提出新的理解。
