Theory and History of Architecture

The program of Architectural Theory at the Brandenburg Technical University at Cottbus maintains an extensive collection of texts on on architecture in the 19th and 20th centuries. Sure, they're all in German, but what gems: Engels' Zur Wohnungsfrage, Joseph Görres' Der Dom von Köln und das Münster von Strasburg (one of my favorites), Gropius' Die Entwicklung moderner Industriebaukunst, Naumann's Die Kunst im Zeitalter der Maschine, Simmel's Die Großstadt und das Geistesleben, ... .
