Abstract
This chapter positions women’s scholarship within the historiography of the eighteenth-century British country house and the architectural history of Canada, each corresponding to the centre and colonial-settler periphery of the British empire. In step with postcolonial and decolonisation strategies, the chapter articulates challenges to the hegemony of formalism and the Eurocentric canon. In the context of the country house, Dana Arnold’s early edited volumes put forward non-formalist approaches, including class, gender, and dissemination. These were joined by the work of several women from outside the discipline of architectural history – Amanda Vickery and Kate Retford amongst them – who, by exploring ‘soft’ concepts such as identity, home, domesticity, and tradition, deepened the consideration of the country house. The chapter then examines the tenacious grip of formalism in Canada, conditioned by Canada’s colonial legacy and reliance on the United States. With a few exceptions, this also kept women from the centre of academe, relegating them to the marginalised heritage sector. Yet, ironically, it was from there, with the focus on vernacular, non-Anglo, and Indigenous sites, that the study of architectural history began to shift, ultimately easing the way for multiple ways of knowing that now shape how we consider the built environment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
