With over 1,000 entries and 600 images across two volumes, the encyclopedia covers a key period in women’s history from 1960 to 2015 – from when the gender bar was lifted at iconic architecture schools, to the present day. Women now comprise half of all architecture students in many countries but students and scholars lack authoritative, globally connected histories of female mentors, peers and forebears. This encyclopedia introduces them to the notable and overlooked women of the global built world, unearthing hidden histories and founding a new field of historical scholarship.
Within a geographical and historical framework, key architects from over 135 countries are included in detailed biographical entries. Coverage includes an expanded field of female designers from related fields (urbanism, landscape, and interiors) plus influential scholars, writers, and activists as well as keys terms, themes, books and exhibitions.
Lori A. Brown is Professor of Architecture, School of Architecture, Syracuse University, USA. Karen Burns is Senior Lecturer in Architectural Design, Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne, Australia.
