Note:                                                                                                                                                                                                The following articles represent an "archival presentation" carrying highly restrictive copyright as per  the conditions below :

The three articles that follow, were first published  in "A+U" Sept.1979, June 1980 and Oct.1984. Along with two or three more, that are forthcoming for re-print here,  were part of the author's contribution to the international debate during the years of Post-Modernity (mid '70's - early '80's), suggesting  precedents of Greek architecture that were already possessing elements of the theoretical proposals promoted by post modern theoreticians of the time; These publications by A.C.Antoniades were part of a collaboration that had started with an article entitled: "Poems with Stones: The Enduring Spirit of Dimitrios Pikionis"("A+U", Dec. 1976- also forthcoming here). All of them were submitted in English and published both in English and Japanese Translation with the encouragement and strong support of Toshio Nakamura, the renown editor of this prestigious international magazine. The current download is realized with his gracious permission  to re-print them  anywhere and as the author desires. It is forbidden however, these articles,  to be downloaded or  exploited in any way by profit making commercial sites (including sites that carry advertising, so called "banners", or promote building materials, building systems , tourist tours etc. of any architectural or environmental scale etc.). For any such download it is required signed written request st and in writing permission by the Author. Proper academic reference to any magazine's audience , by means of "footnote" or by inclusion in the text of the electronic address of the downloaded articles from "A+U" in the present electronic site  (i.e www.acaarchitecture.com/Mag54.htm , or www.acaarchitecture.com/Mag54(1).htm.pdf  ,  or www.acaarchitecture.com/Mag54(2).htm , http://www.acaarchitecture.com/Mag53(1).htm.pdf )      is certainly permitted and encouraged, under , of course the GENERAL condition below :

IN GENERAL , any  presentation ,download  or wording  by others , or by any means inclusion of this material in a third party electronic or other archive, that is not in accordance with the above paragraph, and outside the "academic due-process"("academic propriety"), and that "might even give the  impression" to their readers that the author gave it to the magazine proprietors  as a collaborator of their  site, Blog, or magazine, is prohibited .

For a better visual appreciation , please go to the original "A+U" issues at your University or at your local Architectural societies libraries. The articles below were scanned and downloaded here for non-profit  educational purposes and at the author's personal expense.

Two of the articles submitted were perhaps considered by the editors of this  prestigious international  magazine  more important than some of the rising "Stars" of the period that were featured in the same issues , and  images of GREEK architecture appeared on their covers, as an agreement, or in opposition to the suggestions of the featured "Stars"......
