Abstract
Abstract Rome was a capital of the arts in the eighteenth century. While the Academy of St. Luke seems lackluster in comparison to the Academy of Architecture in Paris, it was not at the center of architectural discourse in Rome. For the architects who came to the city to study, their experiences of ruins, Renaissance buildings, and contemporary architecture were much richer than the offerings at the Accademia. The wide range of books about architecture printed in Rome exerted a great force on European‐wide discourse. These were the Eternal City's great contributions to architecture in eighteenth‐century Europe.
