Bibliography

The following list includes all sources and references in the text, as well as books and articles which in various ways have influenced the present study. The bibliography is also intended to serve as an introductory guide to the subject of the study of the built environment.

The items below are numbered consecutively. Some of these consist of important artices published in collections and anthologies; these are cross-indexed by number.

The listing includes writings on architectural theory, semiotics, nonverbal communication, and anthropology, as well as works on the subject of Minoan architecture and culture for those wishing to pursue more detailed study of the data employed in our analytic corpus. Many of the following works are particularly useful for their extensive bibliographies (indicated by an asterisk). An especially useful introduction to semiotics and structuralism is Hawkes (34), and the most important introduction to the study of the phonological structure of verbal language is Jakobson and Waugh (45), for those interested in a comparative look at non-architectonic communication. The best sources of bibliography for nonverbal communication in general are M. R. Key, items 49 and 50.

MINOAN ARCHITECTURE AND ARCHAEOLOGY

The bibliography pertaining to Minoan settlements is extensive, and the following is intended as a brief guide to major reports and surveys. The most useful introduction to Minoan architecture remains Graham’s Palaces of Crete, wherein will also be found a good list of major excavation reports of primary sites:

*139. GRAHAM, J. W. The Palaces of Crete (Princeton, 1962).

See also the same author’s:

140. ________. “The Minoan Unit of Length and Minoan Palace Planning,” in American Journal of Archaeology 64, 1960, 335-341.

For a contrary view on the planning methods of Minoan builders, see:

142. ________. “Modular Design in Minoan Architecture: an Introduction,” in Studies Presented to G. M. A. Hanfmann, D. G. Mitten, J. G. Pedley, and J. A. Scott, eds., Cambridge, MA, 1971, 127-143.
