About this listen

In the finale of our series on Sigfried Giedion, we discussed the bait-and-switch coda of the book, where Giedion unexpectedly addresses questions of urbanism and town planning, via Haussmanisation, designs for Lyon by Tony Garnier, the Garden City movement, slab block modernism and Manhattan.

We hope you enjoyed this series. We will be back soon with a discussion of William Golding's 'The Spire'!
