“Will the Real Borromini Please Stand Up?”
The principles of art criticism introduced by Professor Theodore M. Greene and elaborated by Professor Bernard C. Heyl have proven effective in engaging fourth-year architectural students in critical reading and analysis. By selecting numerous examples from writings on the life and work of Francesco Borromini, a designer of interest to most architectural students, different critical perspectives and various ways of structuring an argument and proving a point are demonstrated, leading students to grasp the difference between subjective opinion and criticism based upon more objective criteria. The essay explains Greene's classifications and the assignments created to introduce skills for academic research and evaluation.
