One exception is Dana Arnold\u2019s edited collection <a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Women-and-Architectural-History-The-Monstrous-Regiment-Then-and-Now\/Arnold\/p\/book\/9781032124582\">Women and Architectural History: The Monstrous Regiment Then and Now<\/a> (2025) which involved women operating from the 1970s onwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This symposium looks back further to the earliest generations involved in the writing and promotion of architectural history in a wide range of spheres. We are interested in women who were involved in the subject as academics, curators, journalists, photographers, writers and in the conservation and heritage spheres from the nineteenth century onwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sahgb.org.uk\/features\/third-girouard-symposium\">Read more here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See more on The Girouard Fund for Publications and donate at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sahgb.org.uk\/sahgb-girouard-fund\">https:\/\/www.sahgb.org.uk\/sahgb-girouard-fund<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See more on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sahgb.org.uk\/\">The Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See <a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/Women-and-Architectural-History-The-Monstrous-Regiment-Then-and-Now\/Arnold\/p\/book\/9781032124582\">Women and Architectural History: The Monstrous Regiment Then and Now<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The third symposium hosted by The Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain (SAHGB) in memory of Mark Girouard looks at women\u2019s contributions to architectural history in Britain and Ireland, with sponsors that include the IHBC, will take place on &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/?p=47713\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[666,967],"class_list":["post-47713","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ihbc-newsblog","tag-architectural-history","tag-symposium"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47713","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=47713"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47713\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":47714,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47713\/revisions\/47714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=47713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=47713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=47713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
