Do you know if any of the presenters will be covering the following:

1562 or 1563 VIGNOLA (Giacomo). Regola delli cinque ordini
d'architettura.... (Venice). Vignola's primary influence
was in France. The second English translation was
 John Leeke's 1669 edition, The Regular
Architect, or, The General Rule of the Five Orders of
Architecture of M. Giacomo Barozzi Da Vignola (London,
1669) rendered into English from the original Italian, and
explained by John Leeke ... for all ingenious persons that
are concerned in the famous art of building.

It is obvious why I am interested in this particular edition since John
Leeke was one of my ancestors.
