Panel talk: The Monstrous Regiment Reassembled
A panel discussion on Tuesday 22 October 2024 from 17:30-20:00 to mark the launch of Women in Architectural History: The Monstrous Regiment Then and Now, Routledge.
In Women in Architectural History: The Monstrous Regiment Then and Now, prominent architectural historians, who happen to be women, reflect on their practice and the intervention this has made in the discipline. Of particular concern are the ways in which feminine subjectivities have been embodied in the discourses of architectural history. Each of the chapters examines the author’s own position and the disruptive presence of women as both subject and object in the historiography of a specific field of enquiry.
Chaired by Professor Dana Arnold, Manchester School of Architecture, the speakers will include:
Prof Joan Coutu, University of Waterloo, Canada
Prof Kathleen James-Chakraborty, University College Dublin
Prof Elizabeth McKellar, Professor Emerita, Open University
Dr Elizabeth Darling, Chair SAHGB
Prof Jane Pavitt, ZHF
