The publication presents the topic of women in architecture in the second half of the 20th century from the point of view of architectural history, as well as in an interdisciplinary context from the perspective of sociology, general history and gender studies. It focuses on the circumstances of the practice and education of women architects, the interconnection of professional and family life, as well as the reflection and recognition of the work of women architects and the principles of the historiography of the field viewed through a gender perspective. The book's expert studies are complemented by an annotated pictorial appendix, which presents a wide range of works and activities of women active in the architectural sphere - from project and design work through research, theoretical, historiographic, curatorial or pedagogical work to criticism and promotion of architecture. The publication also includes a list of surnames of women whose creative careers have been touched by our research. Its purpose is to draw attention to the theme of the transformation of female surnames making the process of attribution more difficult. At the same time, this list is an important tool for tracing the continuity of the work of the women creators mentioned.
