[email protected] Abstract The current rules of projecting contemporary architecture are different from other historical periods. There are some rules and laws that composes each different styles. The treaty writers recover classical composition with order and balancing geometric figures, especially for façades and doorways, improving the architectural production at that time. The architects of the 17th century knew the treaties and they applied on their buildings, so we can talk about a culture architecture and by analysing their works, it brings us closer to its process. Such is the case of the façade of the church of Santiago de Benicalaf (Valencia) -Spain- in which by following the most relevant Spanish treaties, many of those rules are reflected. This study allows us to get closer to the architect, in addition to establishing the architectural work as an architectural reference within its heritage context.

Resumen Bien es sabido que las reglas de proyectar la Arquitectura contemporánea son muy distintas a otros periodos históricos e incluso, entre los distintos estilos existen distintas leyes que las diferencian.

  • Evidence from the 1609 Spanish Expulsion of the Moriscos∗
    Economic Dynamics in the Malthusian Era: Evidence from the 1609 Spanish Expulsion of the Moriscos∗ Short title: Economic Dynamics in the Malthusian Era Eric Chaney and Richard Hornbeck May 2015 Abstract We investigate economic dynamics in the Malthusian era using the 1609 expulsion of Moriscos from Spain. Sharp population declines in former-Morisco districts were ac- companied by decreased output and increased per capita output. While these short-run results are consistent with standard Malthusian predictions, Malthusian convergence was delayed through 1786 in former-Morisco districts. Archival sources and historical accounts suggest extractive institutions and cultural differences may have contributed to delayed convergence in population and output per capita. This historic episode provides an unusually rich setting to examine Malthusian dynamics, highlighting the potential for sustained differences in per capita output in the Malthusian era. For the millennia prior to the demographic transition, models of economic growth focus on capturing \Malthusian dynamics." In this Malthusian era, technological growth or popu- lation declines are predicted to cause temporary increases in output per capita that dissipate as population grows and the land-to-labor ratio declines. Scholars have generally found empirical support for the traditional Malthusian predic- tions. In a recent contribution, Ashraf and Galor (2011) show that both land productivity and technology were historically related to population density rather than income per capita. Impacts of the European Black Death are also consistent with this framework (e.g., Phelps- Brown and Hopkins, 1981; Hatcher, 1996; Clark, 2005), although population and wages appear to converge slowly following this large population shock. ∗Eric Chaney, [email protected], Littauer Center, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, 02138.
