Devi Nayar (School of Architecture) will present her talk entitled: “House as Ritual: Stories of Gender, Space, and Caste in Colonial Kerala” and Thomas Munro (Classics) will present his talk: “Christopher Logue: Politics, Poetry, and the Classical Past.”
Please join us for these two exciting presentations, with a robust Q&A to follow! We estimate that the event will take about one hour.
Devi Nayar is a second-year Master of Environmental Design candidate at the Yale School of Architecture. Her research interests include gendered spaces in 15th-century Kerala, gender and sexuality in domestic architecture, and the intersection of religion, geography, gender, and the build environment.
