How do architecture and literature relate?
This is the second time the Architecture Department will offer "Topographical Stories: Architecture, Literature, and Cities," a seminar taught by Architecture professor David Leatherbarrow. Leatherbarrow said students in the class will examine texts from authors writing about specific cities, comparing them to pieces of architecture from the same city and the same time period.
The UPenn Benjamin Franklin Seminar will be offered this spring. According to Professor Leatherbarrow, "the goal for the course is to get students thinking about architecture in a new way by looking at the discipline using many approaches," reports The Daily Pennsylvanian.
Some of the pairings reported for the seminar include author Sherwood Anderson and Frank Lloyd Wright exploring the city of Chicago; Italian writer Dino Buzzati and Ernesto Rogers to examine Milan; and many others.
