This is a review essay that aims to compare two idealizations of urbanism commonly taken as paradoxical. This is carried out through the critical reading of two works that, beyond their intrinsic values, are seminal for summarizing important ideas in the history of urbanism: Der Städtebau nach seinen künstlerischen Grundsätzen, by Camillo Sitte (1889) and Manière de penser l'urbanisme (1924), and Urbanism (1925) both by Le Corbusier. Theses defended in this paper are: (1) there are reminiscences and aging of both visions in our contemporary cities, both at the theoretical level as well as at the concrete one; and (2) critiques made to each of them may be relativized. This paper is developed as an essay and refers, besides to the reading of the original works, to other analyses, mostly those based on comparative methods.

Palabras clave : Camillo Sitte; Le Corbusier; Urbanism Theory.
