Features: A world entrusted by the gods to citizens of ancient Greece and Rome, where heaven and hell coexist; the secluded Byzantine Empire of the Eastern Roman Empire and the fragmented Europe of the early Middle Ages; Europe gradually emerging from the "Dark Ages," the Italy awakened by the Renaissance trumpet, and the gradually reviving old continent of Europe; the European society entering modern times, with Baroque art in the salons and gardens. We hope this book can not only spark the interest of architecture enthusiasts but also serve as a historical reference, travel guide, art style reference, engineering aesthetics reference, and cultural psychology reference for a broader audience. This book is written as a cultural history, so it always strives to incorporate and interweave as many perspectives and layers as possible. During the writing process of this book, we attempted to analyze the traditional topic of "Western Classical Architectural Culture" in a "non-traditional" way through the connections between different disciplines and cross-cultural comparisons between the East and the West. For this reason, we hope this book can not only spark the interest of architecture enthusiasts but also serve as a historical reference, travel guide, art style reference, engineering aesthetics reference, and cultural psychology reference for a broader audience. This may seem a bit greedy, but the real intention is still to provide some ideas and hints through our own efforts, to inspire and help readers start to view, discover, and restore a comprehensive and authentic history with their own perspectives.
