Admirar un imponente monumento construido a lo largo de tres siglos y que ofrece logros artísticos es la actitud común de quienes desde la Plaza Mayor de la ciudad de México dirigen la vista hacia el costado norte. Preguntarse cuáles fueron las etapas principales de la construcción; cómo se obtuvieron los recursos para realizarla; de qué lugares salieron los operarios; quiénes fueron y de qué manera trabajaron en ella; de dónde provinieron los materiales y por qué vías fueron transportados; cómo soportaron ese colosal esfuerzo la economía y la sociedad de la Nueva España en los siglos XVI, XVII, XVIII y comienzos del XIX, ya representa un enfoque histórico que no muchos hacen suyo y que requiere una amplia documentación, pacientemente investigada, para obtener algunas respuestas, así sean parciales.

"Spanning from the West African coast to the Canadian prairies and south to Louisiana, the Caribbean, and Guiana, France's Atlantic empire was one of the largest political entities in the Western Hemisphere. Yet despite France's status as a nation at the forefront of architecture and the structures and designs from this period that still remain, its colonial building program has never been considered on a hemispheric scale. Drawing from hundreds of plans, drawings, photographic field surveys, and extensive archival sources, Architecture and Urbanism in the French Atlantic Empire focuses on the French state's and the Catholic Church's ideals and motivations for their urban and architectural projects in the Americas. In vibrant detail, Gauvin Alexander Bailey recreates a world that has been largely destroyed by wars, natural disasters, and fires - from Cap-François (now Cap-Haïtien), which once boasted palaces in the styles of Louis XV and formal gardens patterned after Versailles, to failed utopian cities like Kourou in Guiana. Vividly illustrated with examples of grand buildings, churches, and gardens, as well as simple houses and cottages, this volume also brings to life the architects who built these structures, not only French military engineers and white civilian builders, but also the free people of colour and slaves who contributed so much to the tropical colonies. Taking readers on a historical tour through the striking landmarks of the French colonial landscape, Architecture and Urbanism in the French Atlantic Empire presents a sweeping panorama of an entire hemisphere of architecture and its legacy."--

Situated at the crossroads of missionary history, imperial history, and colonial architecture, the contributions in this volume investigate the architectural staging and spatial implications of the worldwide expansion of Christianity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By looking at specific architectural fragments, analysing the insertion of Christian edifices in colonial urban settings, or unravelling the social understanding of missionary places, each of the chapters contemplates an aspect of the agency of mission spaces.
