1.Architecture is to building as literature is to the printed word. The best buildings are often so well constructed that they outlast1 their original use. They then survive not only as beautiful objects, but as documents of the history of cultures. These achievements are never wholly the work of individuals. Architecture is a social art.
2.The renaissance2 brought about an entirely3 new age, not only in philosophy and literature but in the visual arts as well. In architecture, the principles and styles of ancient Greece and Rome were brought back to life and reinterpreted. They remain dominant4 until the 20th century.
