tratadística [body of serious] literature on architecture Explanation: I'm sure of the meaning, but there might be a better way to say it. It's the body of literature in the intellectual sense -- the treatises and serious publications. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs 32 mins (2005-09-01 08:55:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If the text is referring exclusively to the sixteenth century, then it's likely to be "treatises," which was the style of writing at the time. |
