‎Rietveld Schröder House: A Biography of the House tells the story of the iconic house and its creators, Truus Schröder (1889?1985) and Gerrit Rietveld (1888?1964). The construction of the house, the designs by ?Schröder & Rietveld Architects?, the war years, the renovations and the many family parties: this richly illustrated publication builds up a picture of the colourful life of the idiosyncratic Rietveld Schröder House. In addition to many previously unpublished photographs, drawings, designs and letters, the book provides in-depth insight into Rietveld and Schröder?s collaboration and their shared ambition to radically change traditional (interior) architecture. The research by authors Natalie Dubois and Jessica van Geel also convincingly shows that Truus Schröder?s role was far greater than previously assumed. As a gifted designer, Schröder was much more than Gerrit Rietveld's ?muse?. Her creative vision proved crucial to their joint projects. With its bespoke design by Irma Boom, this publication is a tribute to the world-famous house built in 1924 that continues to inspire today. Rietveld Schröder House: A Biography of the House is an accessible and essential reference work for lovers of modern architecture, art history and revolutionary daring. This publication coincides with the centenary of the Rietveld Schröder House, and is issued in collaboration with Centraal Museum Utrecht.‎

‎Summary The archaeological excavations conducted from one end of the Mediterranean zone to the other have illuminated the place of gods in the ritual practices in the dwellings of the Graeco-Roman era. The discovery of multiple artefacts, dedicated spaces, and figurative paintings support new avenues of historical, anthropological, and social reflection with the aim of better understanding domestic religious practices in the polytheistic contexts of antiquity. This collective volume organizes those reflections around three axes. The first axis centres on identifying the deities that were favoured in domestic sanctuaries. Which gods are represented and which are not? The second axis concerns the interrelationships evident within domestic ritual spaces and sanctuaries. The third axis is dedicated to the anthropology of rituals. Lines of inquiry informed by anthropological, social, and phenomenological approaches are assuming ever-greater importance in scholarship on Antiquity. It is from this perspective that the authors explore the role that domestic ritual spaces play in shaping the lived environment.
