Christian Norberg-Schulzâs Interpretation of Heideggerâs Philosophy investigates the theoretical contribution of the world-renowned Norwegian architectural theorist Christian Norberg-Schulz (1926 â 2000) and considers his architectural interpretation of the writings of German philosopher Martin Heidegger. Though widely recognised as providing the most comprehensive reading of Heideggerian philosophy through the lens of architecture, this book argues that Norberg-Schulz neglected one of the key aspects of the philosopherâs contributions: the temporal nature of being-in-the-world as care. The undeveloped architectural implications of the ontological concept of care in his work prevented the fruition of his ultimate aim, transforming the âart of placeâ into an âart of livingâ. This book seeks to realign Norberg-Schulzâs understanding of time as continuity and change to present a holistic approach grounded in Heideggerâs phenomenological philosophy; architecture as art of care. Aimed at academics and scholars in architectural theory, history and philosophy, Christian Norberg-Schulzâs Interpretation of Heideggerâs Philosophy surveys the implications and significance of the theoristâs works on architectural criticism in the late 20th century.
