This scholarly work chronicles Laugier's foundational ideas, particularly his concept of the 'primitive hut,' and their profound impact on the aesthetic and theoretical underpinnings of 18th-century French architecture. Herrmann meticulously details how Laugier's writings challenged prevailing norms and advocated for a return to rational principles in design. The text argues for the enduring relevance of Laugier's contributions, illustrating their significance within the broader intellectual currents of the period. It offers an indispensable resource for scholars of architectural history and Enlightenment studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48266609918171,"sku":"2025200060055-SECONDHAND","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d5b6bdac-182a-4b42-a172-2bbce151fbd1.png?v=1771171331","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2025200060055-secondhand-laugier-and-eighteenth-century-french-theory","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
