Alternative Domesticities: Reading Living Space in Geography, Text, and Media
The event seeks to embrace a wide range of perspectives around marginal experiences of domestic architectures, and the renovation, occupation and domestication of textual and material spaces. Contributions include those of established and early-career scholars working across media, culture studies, languages and literatures, and geography.
The day's proceedings will be bookended by Keynote papers from Professor Mary Gilmartin (Maynooth) and Professor Victoria Rosner (New York University). In between, one panel of papers will explore "Material Homes: Objects, Art, and Architecture", while the afternoon session will be devoted to "New Research Directions in Domestic Architecture and Dwelling", including presentations and a round-table discussion spotlighting early-career researchers.
This event is funded by the College of Arts and Humanities Thresholds of Knowledge research theme and the UCD Humanities Institute. Further details can be found (opens in a new window)here.
