Overview2014 Reprint of 1926 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. The Autobiography of an Idea is an account of Sullivan's career and his architectural theories. Sullivan was a spokesman for the reform of architecture, an opponent of historical eclecticism, and did much to remake the image of the architect as a creative personality. His own designs are characterized by richness of ornament. His importance lies in his writings as well as in his architectural achievements. These writings, which are subjective and metaphorical, suggest directions for architecture, rather than explicit doctrines or programs. Sullivan himself warned of the danger of mechanical theories of art.
