Table of ContentsReviews’Anyone who works on the history and legacy of Italian colonialism has to consider the nature and the development of the built environment. Sean Anderson’s study represents an invaluable contribution to our knowledge of architecture in colonial Eritrea, the conceptual structures on which it was based, and the manifold types of representation to which it was subject. In its exploration of how the colony was seen from the late nineteenth century, how architectural practice developed, how the interior space of the home was interpreted, and how the colonial exhibition functioned, the study is detailed and meticulously researched. Throughout the work Anderson draws on advanced theoretical thinking on spatiality, semiotics, and subjectivity. Accompanied by a fascinating photographic record of the types of building project that defined the Italian presence in Eritrea in its various and distinct phases, the study will appeal to a wide range of specialized and non-specialized audiences.’ Charles Burdett, University of Bristol, UK 'Anyone who works on the history and legacy of Italian colonialism has to consider the nature and the development of the built environment.
