About Reading Abbott

Maude Abbott loved to read. This exhibition explores both what she read and ways we can read her life story. While many publications on the famous doctor have focused on the barriers she faced in a male-dominated profession, this exhibition places Abbott among her favourite authors, texts, and locations. At its heart are Abbott鈥檚 five diaries. These precious journals record her daily activities, meetings, travels, meals, health, friends, books, and even her hair appointments.

鈥淩eading Abbott鈥� showcases a wide array of primary sources on Abbott鈥檚 life. The exhibit is arranged under four thematic headings, exploring her relationships (鈥�Osler + Abbott鈥�), mobility (鈥�Abbott on the Move鈥�), reading (鈥�Abbott reads鈥�), and writing (鈥�Abbott writes鈥�). Curated by architectural historian Annmarie Adams, 鈥淩eading Abbott鈥� invites feminist and spatial readings of Abbott's legacy.

鈥淩eading Abbott鈥� is sponsored by the Department of Social Studies of Medicine, Peter Guo-hua Fu School of Architecture, and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).

Au sujet de l'exposition

Maude Abbott avait une passion pour la lecture. Cette exposition vous fera d茅couvrir 脿 la fois ce qu鈥檈lle aimait lire et comment lire le r茅cit de sa vie. Alors que de nombreuses publications ont examin茅 les obstacles que la c茅l猫bre m茅decin a d没 surmonter dans une profession majoritairement masculine, Maude Abbott est ici pr茅sent茅e au milieu de ses textes et endroits pr茅f茅r茅s. L鈥檈xposition a 茅t茅 cr茅茅e autour de ses cinq journaux intimes qui pr茅sentent un portrait de sa sant茅, de son cercle d鈥檃miti茅s et de ses lectures et racontent ses activit茅s quotidiennes, y compris ses rencontres, ses voyages, ses repas et m锚me ses rendez-vous pour se faire coiffer.

L鈥檈xposition 芦 Lire Abbott 禄 propose un regard diff茅rent sur la vie de cette femme 脿 travers de nombreuses sources primaires, et elle est organis茅e autour de quatre grands th猫mes : ses relations (芦 Osler + Abbott 禄), ses voyages (芦 Abbott on the Move 禄), ses lectures (芦 Abbott reads 禄) et ses 茅crits (芦 Abbott writes 禄). Assembl茅e par Annmarie Adams, historienne en architecture,, 芦 Lire Abbott 禄 alimente une r茅flexion f茅ministe et spatiale autour de l鈥檋茅ritage de la Dre Abbott.

L鈥檈xposition 芦 Lire Abbott 禄 est commandit茅e par le D茅partement d鈥櫭﹖udes sociales de la m茅decine, l鈥櫭塩ole d鈥檃rchitecture Peter Guo-hua Fu et le Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines (CRSH).
