Résumé:
Featuring contributions from a range of significant voices in the field, this volume renews the conversation around what it means to speak of the "queer" in the context of architecture, and offers a fresh take on the methodological and epistemological challenges this poses to the discipline of architectural theory. Architecture as a discipline, a profession and an applied practice, is always subordinate to its own conceptual framework, which is one of orderliness. It refers to buildings, but also to infrastructures of thought and knowledge, to conventions and taxonomies, to structures of governance, hierarchies of power and systems of administration. How, then, can one look at queering architectural discourse when the very term "queer", celebrated for its elusive, slippery nature, resists and attacks such order? Divided into four subsections, the essays in this anthology each purse a distinct line of inquiry - methods, practices, spaces, and pedagogies - in order to help particularize the proposed queering of architecture. They demonstrate the paradoxical nature of the endeavour from a diverse range of perspectives – from the questions of mapping queer theory in architecture; to the issues of queer architectural archives, or lack thereof; to the non-Western linguistic challenges to the very term queer alongside decolonial approaches to architecture via indigeneity and landscape.

Résumé:
Les revendications féministes actuelles dans le domaine de l’architecture s’enracinent dans des décennies de réflexion critique, de militantisme politique, théorique et professionnel. Documentant l’engagement de plusieurs générations de penseurs-euses féministes, cette anthologie fait entendre quelques-unes des voix pionnières qui se sont élevées pour interroger le champ de l’architecture dans toutes ses dimensions, ses mécanismes sociaux, ses modes de production intellectuelle et professionnelle. Publiés entre 1977 et 1999, les douze textes fondateurs sélectionnés et présentés par la chercheuse Stéphanie Dadour éclairent un moment oublié de l’histoire de l’architecture nord-américaine. À une période où des notions fondamentales comme genre, intersectionnalité et queer sont forgées et progressivement introduites en architecture, les discours croisés de ces praticien-nes, théoricien-nes, historien-nes ou commissaires d’expositions dessinent un mouvement collectif qui n’existait pas auparavant et qui marquera indéfectiblement la littérature architecturale ultérieure.

Résumé:
A literary and cultural history of the intimate space of the eighteenth-century closet?and how it fired the imaginations of Pepys, Sterne, Swift, and so many other writers Long before it was a hidden storage space or a metaphor for queer and trans shame, the closet was one of the most charged settings in English architecture. This private room provided seclusion for reading, writing, praying, dressing, and collecting?and for talking in select company. In their closets, kings and duchesses shared secrets with favorites, midwives and apothecaries dispensed remedies, and newly wealthy men and women expanded their social networks. In 'The Closet', Danielle Bobker presents a literary and cultural history of these sites of extrafamilial intimacy, revealing how, as they proliferated both in buildings and in books, closets also became powerful symbols of the unstable virtual intimacy of the first mass-medium of print.
