Sport and Architecture

Sport and architecture are two of the social practices in contemporary life with the broadest impact on the world around us. In spite of the myriad examples of the rich and complex relationship between sport and architecture, there is a relative paucity of scholarly work exploring that relationship. This volume seeks to begin filling that gap in the scholarly literature. It explores the history of sports architecture and examines the types of buildings and events that create sites where sport and architecture converge in particularly telling ways.--[Source inconnue].
