![]() Curtis worked on the first edition as a young researcher in North America in the late 1970s and on the definitive edition of the book in the early 1990s: Modern Architecture Since 1900 is exemplary of, and contemporary to, these developments. The study of postcolonial theories in architecture, also at the turn of the century, challenged the previously accepted canon of architectural history by urging the development of a global history of architecture (which remains today undefined). These developments culminated in 1999 with a major methodological reassessment of the history of modern architecture, its education and its scholarly study in journals such as JSAH and JAE. Curtis’s book lies in a transitional period in the history of modern architecture: between the establishment of research degrees in North American schools in the 1970s and the consolidation of the discipline as the subject matter of historiographical research in the 1990s. ![]() Curtis’s Modern Architecture Since 1900 (1982). ![]() ![]() ![]() AbstractThis dissertation explores the writing of history through the close reading of William J.R. ![]()
