Description: This course investigates the significance of gender and sexuality in the production, use, and representation of architectural and urban spaces: within the historiography of architectural and urban history; and in determining spatial justice - how access to space based on gender and sexuality advances or erodes human and civil rights. For each lecture, Graduate Students will be assigned additional readings. They will write an annotated bibliography of all these readings to be turned in at the end of the semester. We will meet for an additional every two or three weeks to discuss interpretive and methodological problems and ideas associated with the readings. Graduate Students will be expected to complete all the requirements of the class in addition to writing a substantial research paper due at the end of the semester.
