Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationChristopher Tadgell studied art history at the Courtauld Institute in London and in 1974 was awarded his PhD for a thesis on the Neoclassical architectural theorist, Ange-Jacques Gabriel. He subsequently taught in London and at the Kent Institute of Art and Design in Canterbury, with interludes as F.L. Morgan Professor of Architectural Design at the University of Louisville and as a Member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton. Now extensively revised and updated, his History of Architecture in India (London 1989) has been the definitive one-volume account of the architecture of the subcontinent for more than thirty years, while many publications on French architecture include most recently The Louvre and Versailles: The Evolution of the Proto-Typical Palace in the Age of Absolutism (Abingdon 2020) and the standard account in Baroque and Rococo Architecture and Decoration (ed. Blunt, London 1978). His seven-volume series Architecture in Context is an unmatched survey of the seminal architectural traditions from the earliest times to the end of the 20th century. He has contributed many articles on Indian and French architecture to The Grove Dictionary of Art and other major reference books, including the 2019 revision of Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture.
