Resumen de De Palladio à Desgodets: le changement du regard des architectes sur les monuments antiques de Rome
The manner in which architects regarded Roman Antique monuments changed in the period between Andrea Palladio and Antoine Desgodets. In his Edifices Antiques de Rome (1682), Desgodets adopted an adversarial approach to Palladio's Quattri libri. Desgodets, the founder of the modern survey, devoted himself to the reproduction, down to the smallest of details, of antique ruins, including the marks left by time and by men. He could not admit or even understand Palladio's approach, which appeared more casual but was also much more profound, as it involved going beyond the anecdote of the ruin to discover the universality of a type.
