education,however there is little research and investigationsurrounding this subject beyond the construction and presentation of a drawing.This document outlines the history of the architectural drawing and investigates themorphological shifts this language has undergone through time;questioning thelanguage as we know it today.  \nThe term drawing is derived from the Italian word'designo',which was later adopted asthe general phrase for design.Drawing coupled the practice of the visual arts with thesphere of ideas to conduct the process of design.It was during the Italian Renaissanceof the fourteenth century that drawing transformed architectural practice,initiatinga division between manual work and mind work.Thus,unlocking the status of thearchitect.Leonardo Da Vinci augmented the conception of painting and drawing as anhonourable intellectual device that was an alternative to mathematics or writing.It couldbe distanced from the labours and mess of construction:  \n'the painter sits ingreat comfort before his work.…He can be dressed as well as he pleasesandhis house can be clean and filled with beautiful paintings'  \nLeonardo Da Vinci  \nStill today,the drawing serves as a linguistic device to communicate information fromarchitect to patron and more importantly,records a series of morphological changeswhich the profession has undergone through time.Drawing offers a unique vantagepoint from which to view the profession,acting as both an impartial territory and tacticalapparatus to mediate between the author and the audience.This thesis provides aconcise historical account of the development of the architectural drawing,apportionedby several short essays that explore different subjects that have defined the architecturaldrawing to provide a comprehensive explanation of the purpose and processes thathave shaped the architectural drawing.  \nThe Architectural Drawng  \nPrior to the 14h Century  \nIntroduction:  \n# The Emergence of the Architectural DrawingPrior to the 14th Century\n\nThe role of the architect has changed significantly throughout history;a notion thatremains constant is that architecture is the visual discipline within construction.Thistheory has been substantiated not through the concern for aesthetics but because ofthe architect's relationship with the drawing.  \nArchitecture is produced in three different registers,through three different texts:drawing,writing,and building.²  \nDrawing is a sophisticated visual language that serves as the primary method ofcommunication within architecture.This specialised language acts similarly to Bathesdefinition of literary criticism:'a discourse upon a discourse;it is a second language,orametalanguage..which operates on a first language³.The architectural drawing isindependent from yet subservient to architecture;it is a reactive metalanguage that
