Features: Research on vernacular architecture is closely related to many disciplines due to its broad scope. Therefore, breaking through relatively singular disciplinary fields and conducting interdisciplinary research is becoming a major trend in the theory and methodology of contemporary vernacular architecture studies. This book adopts an interdisciplinary and integrated approach, selecting disciplines such as sociology, human geography, communication studies, and ecology to intersect with vernacular architecture. It constructs theoretical frameworks for relevant research, thereby expanding the theoretical vision of vernacular architecture studies. This book is written by the author based on years of research and teaching on this topic. It can serve as a reference for researchers of vernacular architecture, historians, and cultural workers in terms of research theory and methodology, and can also be used as a textbook or reference book for architectural majors in higher education institutions.
