About this product
Product Information
Red-ochre burial mounds, mysterious artefacts in ponds, giant circles carved in limestone, Spanish mission chapels, frontier houses of worship, gothic cathedrals, courthouses, post offices: eight thousand years of Floridians' lives can be experienced through the state's human-made environment. A sweeping saga of Florida's built landscape from 6000 b.c. to the present, Heart and Soul of Florida begins with pre-Columbian archaeological sites. Architectural historian Elsbeth Gordon recreates the original atmosphere of many such ancient places. These burial and worship arrangements serve as printed watermarks of Native American traditions, grounding Florida's identity as time passes. Spanish Colonial architecture provides Florida with a second important layer of cultural history. This book is filled with accounts of remarkable architectural activity from this period: it tells the story of the Spanish mission of Nombre de Dios (1580-1793) and compares the Spanish Royal Ordinances of 1573 with the town plan of St. Augustine today. Photographs, drawings, and maps make these tales even more absorbing and tangible. Ending with Florida's exciting pioneering and dynamic entrepreneurial era, Florida's newest era, Gordon provides a much-needed broad synthesis of Florida's rich architectural heritage. She expands the definition of sacred space by including preserved historic civic buildings, like the State Capitol, to fully examine the multitude of places that nurture the spirits of Florida's people. Gordon inspires the general and professional public to see Florida's built environment as a rich continuum of history and identity that shaped and continues to impact Florida's culture-from the mundane to the transcendent. These humanising places, many of which endure permanently in the landscape, represent an architecture of the soul.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
