1. NC DOCKS at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro; Vann, Christopher Scott. A reassessment of enlightenment architectural thought in Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest: a phenomenological case study.

Degree: 2019, NC Docks

URL: http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/uncg/f/Vann_uncg_0154M_12659.pdf 

This case study examines the application of Continental and Neoclassical principals in the architecture of Thomas Jefferson with particular attention to Poplar Forest through an examination of the context of a skylight installed under Thomas Jefferson’s direction. Jefferson’s meaning has come to us in explicit form and is implicit in its very existence. Experientially light interpenetrates the absolute and mundane world of body, architecture and physicality. We may more easily experience this meaning than rationalize it; thus, the durable, tangible presence of the skylight transcends form or function, and fully expresses, as will be demonstrated here, Thomas Jefferson’s intended meaning.

Subjects/Keywords: Poplar Forest (Va.); Jefferson, Thomas, $d 1743-1826 $x Homes and haunts $z Virginia $z Bedford County; Light in architecture; Skylights
