Margarete Schutte-Lihotzky (1897–2000), an Austrian architect and postwar member of the Communist Party, was invited to participate in these programs in both periods. Today Schutte-Lihotzky has been canonized in this history of architecture for her interwar contributions to modern housing and educational institutions in Austria, Germany, the Soviet Union, and Turkey. Recent scholarship has shown, however, that both, her architectural and political efforts, spanned more than eight decades. Schutte-Lihotzky was actively involved in the Austrian Communist Resistance in the 1940s, as well as the Austrian women’s movement, the international peace movement, and transnational architectural organizations such as the International Congress of Modern Architecture (ciam), and the Union of International Architects (uia) in the postwar years. By focusing on two extended research trips Schutte-Lihotzky made to China in 1934 and 1956, this essay positions her work in a wider discourse about the agency of female architects as well as the networks of communist intellectuals during the Cold War. It presents Schutte-Lihotzky’s endeavors in China as a lens for examining the complex entanglements of gender, class, and ethnicity in international women’s organizations as well as instances of “othering” perpetuated by European architects who served as foreign “experts” abroad. Finally, the essay also argues that Schutte-Lihotzky’s travel coincided with moments of China’s effort to build relationships with countries abroad. While her book manuscript Millionenstadte Chinas, completed in 1958, thus serves as a document chronicling these exchanges in design culture, at the time Schutte-Lihotzky understood it as a preparatory text for devising a global architectural history written from a communist vantage point.","PeriodicalId":41296,"journal":{"name":"ABE Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80038965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Edquist","doi":"10.4000/ABE.5822","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4000/ABE.5822","url":null,"abstract":"This paper is concerned with the family as one of the key entrepreneurial and capitalist agents in the colonisation of Australia. Private enterprise has long been understood to be one of the prime factors in this history and Scottish families were particularly active. My case study is the Learmonth family who hailed from the Falkirk area in Stirlingshire, 44 km west of Edinburgh. Their story exemplifies the imbrication of family identity in its dynastic character with the opportunities afforded by the colonial expansion of the British empire and how this was figured in built works. Of significance for the paper is an understanding of what was at stake in Scotland for the Learmonth family and its lineage and how Thomas Learmonth, youngest of four sons, and his sons used colonial acquisitions to embellish their family status and identity at home. Ercildoun, the famous sheep station they established near Ballarat in Victoria was the final achievement of their Australian sojourn and it propelled them from the margins of Scottish life to somewhere much nearer its centre. The paper will show how they, as pastoralists and breeders of the “pure Australian merino” operated in the colonial enterprise-driven and global modality of economic migration that drove the expansion of the Port Phillip District of New South Wales in the 1830s and 1840s.","PeriodicalId":41296,"journal":{"name":"ABE Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48221610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the time, they were the second largest ethnic group, after the English, and through their numbers, enterprise (typically pastoralism and trading), land ownership, and building helped shape the colonisation and Europeanisation of the island. This article outlines their influence in the built environment and proceeds to present portraits of three related Scottish-Vandemonian pastoral properties. Employing personal records and correspondence it focuses upon the motivations, ambitions, and agency of Scottish networks (familial, social and entrepreneurial) as reflected in the architecture and building of their mansions. Those networks were local, regional, and global, with active participants in Scotland, and were instrumental in the development of the mansions. The designs for these mansions (often unattributed), along with their construction, also played a role in the building of these networks. Employing the lens offered by the experience of Scottish settlers, the paper considers the interplay of empire, regions, settler networks, and buildings in Van Diemen’s Land in the first half of the nineteenth century.","PeriodicalId":41296,"journal":{"name":"ABE Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44737035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Longair","doi":"10.4000/ABE.5767","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4000/ABE.5767","url":null,"abstract":"Two Scottish architects, John Begg and George Wittet, created several notable landmarks in Mumbai and elsewhere in India under the British Raj in the early twentieth century. Wittet arrived in India in 1904 as Begg’s assistant, and after three years succeeded Begg as Consulting Architect for Bombay when the latter was promoted to Consulting Architect of the Government of India. Begg was responsible for numerous buildings in his twenty-year career in India while Wittet’s major works included the Prince of Wales Museum (now the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya museum) and the Gateway to India. They were also instrumental in architectural education in India through their involvement in the development of the architectural curriculum at the Sir Jamshetji Jeejeebhoy School of Art. Both men therefore made major contributions to the colonial built environment as well as the future of the architectural profession in India. \u0000 \u0000Throughout the rich history of Scotland and empire is an emphasis upon the contributions of Scots in professional fields, with particular attention being given to medicine and education. Scottish architects and their role in shaping imperial cities around the world have remained notably absent from these studies. This paper will investigate the careers of these two men, their architectural designs, personal connections and professional networks in Scotland and India to analyse the significance of Scottish, British and colonial identities in their development as architects in the empire.","PeriodicalId":41296,"journal":{"name":"ABE Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44284199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Far more than their English counterparts, who long thought of Australia as merely a penal colony, prominent Scottish emigrants saw the possibility of building a new Jerusalem at the Antipodes.In this paper I have chosen to contrast the careers of two such men, the architect James Barnet (1827-1904) and the trade unionist John Grant (1857-1928). Both grew up in the building trade and served their apprenticeships in Britain but went on to very different careers in Australia. One became the Colonial Architect of New South Wales, determined to give the rapidly-growing colony a distinguished public architecture, much of whose prodigious legacy remains to this day. The other became the leader of the Stonemasons’ Society and a pioneer of the Australian labour movement, equally determined to give his new country a legacy of a different kind, the foundations of a more progressive and socially just society. Between them they represent the two poles of nineteenth-century Australian aspirations, the individual and the collective, and their careers offer an illuminating contrast of the ways in which men chose to make their way in the new world, and of how that world might be transformed in the light of reason with a particular Scottish inflection.","PeriodicalId":41296,"journal":{"name":"ABE Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2019-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46765029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
