Architecture, city and mathematics: the lost connection
Santrauka
The connection between architecture and sound based on mathematical relations has continued to develop since the rise of Western classical civilization that originated in Ancient Greece. This line of reasoning can be traced as early as when the doctrine of Orphism emerged in early Greece. Early medieval Christian thinkers like St. Aurelius Augustine and Boethius revived and continued this ancient pagan tradition and it persisted in Renaissance and baroque. This tradition gradually dissolved and was marginalized during post-Renaissance period when scientific worldview consolidated.
