The 18th-century rediscovery of the three archaic Greek-Doric temples in Paestum in southern Italy turned existing ideas on classical architecture upside down. In this book, the author analyzes extensive original source material, including letters, diaries, drawings, paintings, engravings and published texts, which are reproduced here.
