	Prehistoric Architecture
		ARCHITECTURE, with all its varying phases and complex developments, must have had a simple origin in the primitive efforts of mankind to provide protection against inclement weather, wild beasts, and human enemies (p.
		The earliest stages of architectural evolution can only dimly be traced ; for prehistoric remains show little constructive development or sequence, whilst the oldest existing historic monuments, as in Egypt, were the product of an already advanced civilisation.
		During this long period architectural styles, by the test of evolution, fall naturally into two groups, viz, the Historical Styles (Part I of this book), which, beginning in Egypt and Assyria, reached their highest development in Europe, and the Non-Historical Styles (Part II, p.

	Canadian Slavonic Papers: Blueprints and Blood: The Stalinization of Soviet Architecture, 1917-1937
		Hudson's illuminating discussion of the "Stalinization" of Soviet architecture is based on new research in the archives made available by perestroika.
		One notable example of the latter is the campaign against the Constructivist "disurbanist" architect Mikhail Okhitovich, who was victimized by the Union of Architects' Party Committee and accused of Trotskyism and denying "the genius of the working class." Arrested in 1935, Okhitovich died in the Gulag.
		For example, the discussion of the "Architectural Schools of Thought" promised in the title of chapter one amounts to an enumeration of artistic groups and individual projects.

	Program in Architecture
		The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit U.S. professional degree programs in architecture, recognizes two types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture and the Master of Architecture.
		The professional program leading to the Master of Architecture degree consists of a sequence of coordinated core courses that introduce and develop architectural knowledge; this is followed by a flexible array of more advanced and speculative course options.
		Path B is for those with a four-year undergraduate baccalaureate degree with a major in architecture; this sequence assumes satisfactory core studies and consists of about two years of more advanced professional studies.

	‘Bruno Taut: Architecture and Colour’ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		Modernist architecture of the 1920's was typified by the Purist's white facades and attempts to rediscover theories of colour seem to have only been possible and desirable during the last few years.
		It becomes clear, from examples such as his house in Stuttgart, that Taut stood apart from those who are regarded as the leading luminaries of ‘Modernism’, in his attitude to colour and architecture, though it has to be emphasised that he was not alone in his interest in colour theory and the use of colour.
		It attempted to dissolve the mass, of architecture, with 'floating' horizontal planes, and surfaces abstractly coloured in the primaries of red, blue, yellow, fl and white.

		Using formerly secret Party archives made available by perestroika, Hudson finds in the rediscovered theoretical work of the avant-garde architects a new understanding of their aims.
		Such goals brought their often divided movement into conflict with the Stalinists, especially on the subject of collectivization.
		Hudson's provocative work offers evidence that in spite of the ultimate success of the Stalinists, the Bolshevik Revolution was not monolithic: at one time it offered real architectural and human alternatives to the Terror.
