This article addresses aspects related to the conception, production, dissemination, and reception of a text whose importance in the historiography of architecture and urbanism has made it an essential reference work among students and professionals in these disciplines: it is about Formes urbaines: from l'îlot à la barre. Translated into Spanish by the architect Santiago Castán, and published for the first time in 1986 under the title From the apple to the block by the Gustavo Gili publishing house, it constitutes a true manifesto whose pedagogical concerns largely reflect those of the practice of architecture, during the last quarter of the 20th century. Avoiding any anti-historical reading, the analysis proposed here is supported by a series of approaches and reflections for which we have reconstructed (thanks mainly to interviews carried out directly with the protagonists of the story, and by consulting their archives) the immediate sociocultural context that made possible the realization of the initial study that gave rise to the book, within the framework of a profound reorganization of the teaching of architecture and urban planning in France (after the dissolution in May 1968 of the Architecture section of the École des Beaux-Arts).
