Description: Taking the reader on an inward journey from facades to closets, from physical to psychic space, Architectural Involutions offers an alternative genealogy of theatre by revealing how innovations in architectural writing and practice transformed an early modern sense of interiority. The book situates Alberti, Shakespeare, Jonson, and others within a landscape of spatial and visual change.
