Architectural competitions date back to Ancient Greece and were common during the Renaissance. They play a vital public role and should be an integral pan of professional architectural practice. In this comprehensive study of architectural competitions in Oslo since 1930, Professor Tostrup suggests that competitions for public building projects offer a unique opportunity to examine the way in which the visual and verbal competition material communicate the value orientations that are embodied in the designs and thus examines the ways in which design and rhetoric are related.Fullyannotated, with constant reference to the copious illustrations and line drawings. Architecture and Rhetoric is an intelligent and detailed analysis of the profitable role competitions and exhibitions
