£5 members/£7 non-members

In this lecture, based on his PhD research and work supported by the Dunscombe Colt Fellowship, Matthew Lloyd Roberts will explore the various ways in which ideas about architecture and the built environment were disseminated in print and periodical culture at unprecedented scale in Georgian England. In a wideranging discussion from the gendering of architectural connoisseurship to the public relations campaigns of the New Churches Commission to disputes over quality of brickmakers’ products, this lecture will shed new light on the discursive world of architectural production enabled through new paradigms of searchability within the Digital Humanities.

The talk starts at 6.30pm, doors open from 6.15pm.
