Giles Worsley
Inigo Jones and the European Classicist Tradition
New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 2007

A re-assessment of the classical influences on Britain's great seventeenth century architect.
By comparing his contemporaries in France and Holland, Worsley shows how contemporary Jones was, while retaining a sophisticated mastery of symbolic power devices, such as the portico, 'Serliana' window and centrally planned villas.
