Originally published in Latin in the first century BCE, this English translation, published in 1914, presents the ten books that make up Vitruvius' treatise on architecture.The book covers a wide range of topics related to architecture, including the design and construction of buildings, the use of materials, the role of the architect, and the importance of proportion and symmetry. Vitruvius also discusses the history of architecture, from the earliest structures to the buildings of his own time.Throughout the book, Vitruvius emphasizes the importance of practical knowledge and experience, and provides detailed instructions for the construction of various types of buildings, including temples, public buildings, and private residences. He also includes advice on the use of different materials, such as stone, wood, and brick, and provides guidance on the design of features such as columns, arches, and vaults.Vitruvius' work has had a profound influence on the field of architecture, and his ideas continue to be studied and debated by architects and scholars to this day.
