The Third Typology and Other Essays

"The Third Typology and Other Essays comprises a collection of Anthony Vidler s writings, opening with his 1976 editorial for Oppositions, The Third Typology.

Included among this selection of essays is a section dedicated to the Ledoux Museum he designed for the Saline de Chaux, France.

Other publications by Vidler include Claude-Nicolas Ledoux: Architecture and Social Reform at the End of the Ancient Regime which won the Society of Architectural Historians Henry-Russell Hitchcock Award, The Architectural Uncanny: Essays in the Modern Unhomely and Warped Space: Architecture and Anxiety in Modern Culture, Histories of the Immediate Present: Inventing Architectural Modernism, and James Frazer Stirling: Notes from the Archive."
