“…For instance, Simone Brott details at length the intricacies involved in, and challenges presented by, architectural readings of Deleuze's work on Leibniz's concept of "the fold". 77 Elsewhere, Michael Speaks retells the infamous case of Derrida (at the Anywhere conference in Yufuin, Japan, in 1992) refusing "to outline a project for the new" and refusing to offer the assembled architects "a clear way to convert deconstruction (as the theoretical protocol) into architectural form". 78 It is in this context that Norberg-Schulz's work provides a kind of limit case.…”

This article draws from reception theory in its examination of the reception over time by architectural theorists and historians of Christian Norberg-Schulz's work, and specifically his treatment of Heidegger and place as developed in Genius Loci (1980) and other publications. Norberg-Schulz's writings, and this book in particular, have attracted consistently high levels of critical attention over more than three decades. Having detailed this reception-which at times borders on hostile-my focus shifts to exploring which it is that this work has attracted such a consistent level of persistent yet critical interest? Why is it that critics keep returning to Norberg-Schulz's work, and what might be revealed through this concern for and criticism of his work?
