The field of landscape architecture (LA) is often described as progressive when considering the rolewomen played in the inception and development of the profession, with some even describing it as'emancipatory'2. Although this has been anecdotally understood for many years, it is only recentlythat there has been a trend towards examining the role of women in the profession. This has largelytaken the form of historical biography with a spotlight being shone on the lives and work of a fewremarkable women. And yet, as Shenker3 and Riley4 both show, this approach can only take us sofar. There is a growing awareness of the need to shift our intellectual enquiry towards a moremultiplicitous framework of women in the history of LA that takes into account social, political andideological agendas5. This research proposal would seek to go someway toward addressing this gapand in so doing, breathe new life and understanding into the discipline. This not only has thepotential to change our view on history and the industry's place within Britain's larger historicalnarrative, but it could also inform current institutional structures, ideologies and practices too.

当考虑到职业的成立和发展中扮演的角色时，景观建筑（LA）的领域通常被描述为渐进式，其中一些甚至将其描述为“ Emancipatoration” 2。尽管这已经广泛理解了很多年，但直到最近才有一种趋势来研究妇女在该行业中的作用。这已经很大程度上了历史传记的形式，人们关注了几个妇女的生活和工作。然而，正如Shenker3和Riley4都表明的那样，这种方法只能带我们沙发。人们越来越认识到需要将我们的智力探究转移到洛杉矶历史上妇女的病态框架上，该框架考虑了社会，政治和思想学议程5。这项研究建议将寻求在这样做的过程中解决这种狂热，使新的生活和理解融入学科。这不仅具有改变我们对历史和英国更大历史范围内的行业地位的看法，而且还可以为当前的机构结构，意识形态和实践提供信息。
