Maarten DelbekeProfessor of History and Theory of Architecture, ETH, Zurich, CH.
My research focuses on the history of architectural theory from the Early Modern period up to the present. I am particularly interested in how architecture is conceived as a medium, and how this conception informs the legitimation of architecture as a cultural practice.

 Fabio Gigone
PhD Fellow M.Arch., Università Iuav di Venezia My research focuses on the relationship between power and architecture in the Early Modern Period. I am focusing on the architectural apparatuses deployed in Versailles, which defined the court and a new idea of privacy within the Louis XIV’s kingdom between the 1682 and 1715. My research will consider a wide range of archival sources and will produce an autonomous body of design investigations based on the drawing tool.

 Natália da Silva Perez
Postdoctoral Researcher BFA in Theatre and Francophone Literature. MA in Performing Arts Studies. PhD in Early Modern Women's History, University of Kent and Freie Universität Berlin.
My research at PRIVACY focuses on how women’s ability to work (or their access to other modes of subsistence) might have been influenced by attempts to control their fertility. I focus, in particular, on historical sources that document unwanted pregnancies, attempts at avoiding pregnancies, and pregnancy termination. I am especially interested in the experiences of women of lower social status, and their interaction with their families, communities, and authorities. My research is informed by an intersectional feminist analysis of my historical material.

My research focuses on notions – and absence – of privacy in the city of Versailles during the last third of the reign of Louis XIV (1682-1715). I examine how the devotional ideal of interiority plays out in François de Salignac de La Mothe-Fénelon’s (1651-1715) tutoring of Le petit dauphin, Louis de France, duc de Bourgogne (1682-1712) in the years 1689-99.

Florian WöllerAssociate Professor at The Section of Church History, The Faculty of Theology, University of Copenhagen.
My research concerns two areas in the first 1500 years of Church History: On one hand, I work on theology as a scientific discipline in the then newly founded universities of the late Middle Ages. On the othee hand, I investigate street processions through late-antique cities, emphasizing their performative qualities. A central of my research agenda focuses on conflicts between private and public forms of religion in street processions.
