Modern Dwelling and the Healthy Body Culture in Germany, 1870-1933. (360G-Wellcome-102074_Z_13_Z)

£4,998

I am planning to undertake archival research in Germany for my research project, Modern Dwelling and the Healthy Body Culture in Germany, 1870-1933. The sources and areas of inquiry include a number of disciplinary frameworks. In addition to art and architectural history, this study draws from medical histories and histories of German reform movements to set up a context for the healthy body culture and its influence on domestic architecture. The sources used are books and articles written by architects and critics, architectural drawings, photographs, furniture catalogues and popular hygienic literature including hygiene and health manuals, family advice books, advertisements featuring hygienic domestic products, illustrations of the healthy and degenerate bodies, books and articles written by physicians and life reformers. The project is not only concerned with the physical transformation, but also the changing perceptions of the dwelling.
