4 The American Society (later just the Society) of Architectural
Historians was established in 1941; the Society of Architec-
tural Historians of Great Britain (SAHGB) in 1956; and the
Society of Architectural Historians, Australia and New Zealand
(SAHANZ) in 1985. In 1980, the Vernacular Architecture
Forum was founded in the United States to cater for the study
of this specialization, as was the International Association for
the Study of Traditional Environments, which fi rst met in
- Each holds an annual or biannual conference. Since
1988 historians of the modern movement have met biannually
at the conferences of the International Working Party for the
Documentation and Conservation of the Buildings, Sites and
Neighbourhoods of the Modern Movement (Docomomo).
Britain’s Architectural Humanities Research Association com-
menced a biannual conference programme in 2004 that places
historians of architecture among other disciplinary and inter-
disciplinary fi elds. In 2010, the inaugural meeting of the
European Architectural History Network will take place in
Guimarães, Portugal, building on a number of smaller national
and cooperative binational events. Architecture furthermore
remains a live subject in many of the world’s art history
congresses, including the College Art Association, Association
of Art Historians, Renaissance Studies Association, Modern
Studies Association and the International Congress on Art
History, to name a few. These structured, regular meetings are,
of course, supplemented each year by hundreds of specialist
gatherings at institutes, academies, libraries and universities,
or staged independently of all these traditional venues.
5 Among the journals dedicated to the history of architecture are
the Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians (hereafter
JSAH, 1941– ), Architectural History (1956– ) and Fabrica-
tions: The Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians,
Australia and New Zealand (1989– ). The CISA ‘Andrea Pal-
ladio’ has published a Bollettino since 1958, then its Annali
from 1989. The German journal Architectura: Zeitschrift für
Geschichte der Baukunst has been in print since 1972. And
for decades learned academies and cultural institutes have
published proceedings and papers documenting research.
