In Episode 22 of Series 3 of A is for Architecture (www.aisforarch...) , architectural historian, Swati Chattopadhyay discusses her 2023 book, Small Spaces: Recasting the Architecture of Empire (www.bloomsbury...) , published by Bloomsbury. ‘With the focus of history so often on the large scale - global trade networks, vast regions, and architectures of power and domination - Small Spaces shows instead how we need to rethink this aura of magnitude so that our reading is not beholden such imperialist optics [and] is a must-read for anyone wishing to decolonize disciplinary practices in the field of architectural, urban, and colonial history.’
Swati is Professor in the Department of History of Art and Architecture (www.arthistory...) , University of California, Santa Barbara and can be found professionally there.
