Abstract

Though Meredith Martin is primarily an art historian, this book goes way beyond art history. It examines “pleasure dairies,” built by the French aristocracy to be sites of leisure, healing, and simple luxury, from the vantage point of cultural studies as well as social and political history. The traditional historical narrative, still deeply resonant, is that these dairies were little more than frivolous excess or attempts to imagine “common life” by people so wealthy they could not even imagine poverty. But Martin complicates this picture. She examines the social, cultural, and political uses of these dairies, showing that they were in fact instrumental as sites that both reinforced and challenged definitions of femininity. The dairies provided strategic venues for noble women to assert their status and identity while at the same time appearing to retreat from power. They served the functions of a spa, where fresh milk and beautiful scenery helped women recover their health. They also are tangible evidence of the new valorization of country living, which was expressed also in political debates about improving the countryside and reforming the aristocracy, especially elite women.

Abstract

In this revealing look at the forces influencing domestic life, health, and architecture in Victorian England, Annmarie Adams argues that the many significant changes in this period were due not to architects' efforts but to the work of feminists and health reformers. Contrary to the widely held belief that the home symbolized a refuge and safe haven to Victorians, Adams reveals that middle-class houses were actually considered poisonous and dangerous and explores the involvement of physicians in exposing "unhealthy" architecture and designing improved domestic environments. She examines the contradictory roles of middle-class women as both regulators of healthy houses and sources of disease and danger within their own homes, particularly during childbirth. Architecture in the Family Way sheds light on an ambiguous period in the histories of architecture, medicine, and women, revealing it to be a time of turmoil, not of progress and reform as is often assumed.

Abstract

Routledge Companion to Women in Architecture illuminates the names of pioneering women who over time continue to foster, shape, and build cultural, spiritual, and physical environments in diverse regions around the globe. It uncovers the remarkable evolution of women's leadership, professional perspectives, craftsmanship, and scholarship in architecture from the preindustrial age to the present. The book is organized chronologically in five parts, outlining the stages of women's expanding engagement, leadership, and contributions to architecture through the centuries. It contains 29 chapters written by 33 recognized scholars committed to probing broader topographies across time and place and presenting portraits of practicing architects, leaders, teachers, writers, critics, and other kinds of professionals in the built environment. The intertwined research sets out debates, questions, and projects around women in architecture, stimulates broader studies and discussions in emerging areas, and becomes a catalyst for academic programs and future publications on the subject. The novelty of this volume is in presenting not only a collection of case studies but in broadening the discipline by advancing an incisive overview of the topic as a whole. It is an invaluable resource for architectural historians, academics, students and professionals.

Abstract

Vrouwen in Architectuur belicht voor het eerst hoe vrouwen in al hun verschillende rollen bijdragen aan architectuur, vroeger er nu. Ondanks deze uiteenlopende en essentiële bijdrages blijft het narratief van architectuur hardnekkig masculien. Maar vrouwen speelden wel degelijk hoofdrollen in de architectuurgeschiedenis. Dit boek toont de opmerkelijke redenen waarom vrouwen ontbreken in archieven en publicaties en hoe die afwezigheid doorwerkt in de (on)zichtbaarheid van vrouwen vandaag. Met het bundelen van deze verhalen voegt de publicatie een ontbrekend hoofdstuk toe aan de architectuurgeschiedenis in Nederland en vormt het een krachtig geluid voor meerstemmigheid in het huidige architectuurdebat.Vrouwen in architectuur is de eerste publicatie in de reeks Documents and Histories, een serie die bijdraagt aan completere geschiedenis. Deze publicatie is een eerste verkenning van meerstemmigheid in de architectuur. Catja Edens reflecteert op de uiteenlopende rollen van vrouwen in de architectuur. Lara Schrijver strijdt met haar essay voor een verschuiving van rivaliteit naar samenwerking binnen de ontwerppraktijk. Indira van 't Klooster ontwikkelt een vocabulaire voor nieuwe, meerstemmige analyses. Setareh Noorani spitst zich toe op alternatieve, inclusieve manieren van archiveren. Daarnaast bevat deze publicatie bijdrages van Florencia Fernández Cardoso, Hilde Heynen, Rixt Hoekstra, Ellen van Kessel, María Novas Ferradás, Erica Smeets-Klokgieters, Fátima Pombo, Lidewij Tummers en Linda Vlassenrood. En worden het vergeten leven en werk van Riné Boerée, Wilhelmina Jansen, Ada Kuiper-Struyk, Elisabeth de Lestrieux, Jacoba Mulder, Manon Peyrot en Guus Schreuder-Gratama belicht.

Abstract

This book examines the relationship between space, defined physically, legally and legislatively, and how these factors directly impact the spaces of abortion. It analyses how various political entities shape the physical landscapes of inclusion and exclusion to reproductive healthcare access, and questions what architecture's responsibilities are in respect to this spatial conflict.Employing writing, drawing and mapping methodologies, this interdisciplinary project explores restrictions and legislatures which directly influence abortion policy in the US, Mexico and Canada. It questions how th
