Claude-Nicolas Ledoux’s engraving "Coup d’oeil du théâtre Besançon" in which the architect’s building is seen reflected in the eye of a viewer, is the centre-piece in this intellectual archaeology. Rodolphe el-Khoury’s close reading of Ledoux’s celebrated icon excavates the foundations of architectural transparency, Modernism’s most potent and lasting invention, which is here traced back to an intellectual milieu that precedes the industrial revolution’s glass and steel building technology. The image becomes a site of entry into the culture of the eighteenth century--debates in public health, the political ideas of Rousseau, the philosophy of Condillac, the project of the Encyclopédie--yielding insights into important, philosophical, and architectural issues. The book includes a translation of Ledoux’s chapter on the theater from his book, L’ Architecture considérée sous le rapport de l’art, des moers, et de la legislation.
