Professor Carroll William Westfall
In this engaging series of lectures, Carroll William Westfall, the University of Notre Dame's Frank Montana Professor of Architecture, delves into the classical principles of Western architecture. Exploring features such as ornamentation, decoration, and innovation, Professor Westfall shows how architecture is derived from the very principles that form the cornerstones of our civilization - and, with scholarly precision, he also demonstrates how this field of endeavor is rooted in nature itself.

Any additional comments?
In this short series of lectures, Professor Westfall brilliantly underscores the value of tradition in the fields of architecture and city building. His points of view have clearly been polished by years of consideration and he integrates a variety of fields in his discussions: philosophy, history, political science, etc.
He succeeds in speaking of architecture without any illustrations. Thus, though he largely shares the same positions, he comes out as the complement of Léon Krier who often expresses himself with drawings and very little text.
It must be pointed out that Professor Westfall, though critical of modernism, is not at all closed to modernity.
Truly fascinating!

it delivered on that. The hypothesis and conclusions are a bit muddy to me, but it is interesting to hear his point of view.
Subject is interesting, delivery lackluster

The lectures where a refreshing discussion of how architecture developed with Western Civilization. Very interesting and profound. Also enjoyed the use of the male pronoun for mankind, music to my ears.
Beauty is Truth and Truth Beauty that is all you need to know!
