Overview

"English summary: The Konigliche Hofbibliothek (Royal Library) in Berlin was constructed in 1774 - 84 during the reign of Fredrick II. With its baroque facade, which cites the Michaelertrakt in Vienna, the building is regarded as anachronistic within the classicist ensemble of the Forum Fridericianum. The book illuminates the architectural history from the construction in Prussian Berlin to the 20th century. It focusses on the tensions between the unchanging facade and the consistently modified interior of the building - whose architecture of today is post-war modern. Thus, the building connects ever since traditionalist past with forward-looking architectural movements. German description: Die Konigliche Hofbibliothek in Berlin, auch als ""Kommode"" bekannt, wurde unter Friedrich II. 1774-84 errichtet. Mit seiner barocken, den Michaelertrakt in Wien zitierenden Fassade gilt der Bau bereits innerhalb des klassizistischen Ensembles des Forum Fridericianum als anachronistisch. Das Buch erhellt die Baugeschichte von der Entstehung im preuaischen Berlin bis ins 20. Jahrhundert. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Spannung zwischen der gleich bleibenden Fassade und dem immer wieder modifizierten Gebaudeinneren - heute ein Bau der Nachkriegsmoderne. So verbindet der Bau seit jeher traditionsbezogene Vergangenheit mit vorwartsgewandten Architekturstromungen."
