Whoever knows how to design a park well will have no difficulty in tracing the plan for the building of a city according to its given area and situation. There must be squares, crossroads, and streets. There must be regularity and fantasy, relationships and oppositions, and casual unexpected elements that vary the scene; great order in the details, confusion, uproar, and tumult in the whole. M.A. Laugier  Observations sur l’Architecture 1765.

Notations on architecture and the city have historically been rendered legible through publications and manifestoes. From Vitruvius to Le Corbusier to the present day architects have presented their impressions and design intentions in clear graphic and textual narratives. These works can provide models for a graphic-based rhetorical language. The architectural treatise constitutes a comprehensive means of communicating all aspects of architectural design, from precedent to projection, addressing the varying dimensions of the discipline. A tectonic appreciation of the city begins with creating a graphic-based methodology for reading and communicating architecture.

LIBERAMENTE NEL CAMPO DI SIENA OGNI VERGOGNA DEPOSTA S’AFFISSE

Dante Alighieri, Purgatorio XI 134-136  posted  in the campo near casato di sotto.*

Casting aside all shame, freely He stood in the campo of Siena, begging … Dante tells how a proud and glorious man, casting shame aside, was saved from hell when, one day, he took a stand in the Campo of Siena to beg for money to ransom an imprisoned friend.

siena grades are all posted (and hopefully soon forgotten) and a new semester is well underway … soon, a new siena studio will start forming. on behalf of all us faculty, a final grazie molto for a memorable siena.studio.2010.

* for those who would like to know the full reference:

‘Quando vivea piil glorioso, disse, / Liberamente nel campo di Siena, Ogni vergogna deposta, s’affisse: / Egli, per trar Pamico suo di pena, / Che sostenea nella prigion di Carlo, / Si condusse a trernar per ogni vena. / Fib non dirb, e scuro so che parlo; Ma poco tempo andt a, che i tuoi vicini / Faranno si che tu potrai chiosarlo.’

‘When in his height of glory,’ said the other, / Casting aside all shame, freely He stood in the campo of Siena, begging:/ He, to redeem his friend from infamy / And death, in [Emperor] Charles’s dungeons, / did what made him Tremble through every vein. / No more; my speech Is dark; thy countrymen,  / ere long will do That which will help thee to interpret it.’

Dante Divine Comedy Purgatory verse 134-136 translated by Baldasare Lombardi

ragazzi! a word of caution: please check your work!  among a lot of very good work, there are many examples of:

we are doing our best to help organize + edit, but please do your part as well.  and don’t get us started on spelling. please be aware that grading by the faculty has started and that it is strictly web-based; if work is missing or late, it risks not be graded by some or all of the faculty.  note, too, that the siena2010 weblog will be closed to further posting and editing at NOON TUE 07 SEP 10.
