'Aeolian Winds and the Spirit in Renaissance Architecture' introduces new dimensions of thinking about architectural theory. Investigating Renaissance pneumatic architecture with respect to other disciplines of arts and sciences, the collected essays substantiate the thesis that pneuma (air, wind, spirit, soul) is a fundamental link for establishing harmony among the human body, a building, and the cosmos. While much of sixteenth and seventeenth century scholarship has been devoted to the mathematics of ideal architecture, the book proves that essence, wind and ventilation are all part of the classical principles of building, and that one of the primary goals of Renaissance architects was to enhance the powers of pneuma so as to foster the art of well-being. This volume, written by leading architectural historians and scholars, delineates ancient and Renaissance theories and practice of pneumatology, and indicates a link to contemporary environmental questions. It examines Anaximenes, Hippocrates, Galen, Trento, Romano, Alberti, Serlio, Palladio, Scamozzi and other thinkers and humanists. Moreover, the essays illustrate the most famous examples of hygienico-therapeutic villas, including Rotonda, La Rocca Pisana and Eolia, a pneumatic model of Renaissance Venetian architecture.

Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472) est connu pour être le premier théoricien de la perspective. Le sixième centenaire de sa naissance a été marqué, en France, par deux événements : la traduction de son traité d'architecture, le premier depuis Vitruve, et un grand colloque organisé par le musée du Louvre. Ce dernier a également fait découvrir au public la partie la moins connue de l'œuvre d'Alberti, celle qui fait de lui le seul personnage du Quattrocento qui puisse être rapproché de Léonard de Vinci. Outre ses œuvres d'architecte et de théoricien des arts, Alberti s'avère être un grand écrivain, un philosophe, un ingénieur, un moraliste, dont les réflexions ont changé le cours de l'histoire, faisant de lui l'homme par qui la Renaissance est arrivée. Cet ouvrage, en présentant des études des meilleurs spécialistes du sujet, des photographies originales, une traduction et des documents inédits d'Alberti, illustre tous ces points ; il offre au lecteur une synthèse aussi complète que possible de l'œuvre du " génie le plus universel de la première Renaissance."
