Dr. G\u00fcl Kale<\/a> is trained as an architect and architectural historian. Before joining Carleton as an Assistant Professor of Architectural History and Theory, she was awarded a Getty\/ ACLS postdoctoral fellowship in Art History in 2018-2019. Her areas of expertise are architectural history and theory with a focus on the early modern Ottoman empire, and cross-cultural and global histories and theories of design and of the built environment in the wider Mediterranean world and the Middle East. She is interested in architecture\u2019s relationship to diverse forms of knowledge and sciences from an interdisciplinary perspective. Her book-length project is the first critical analysis of the only early modern book written by a scholar on Ottoman architecture in particular and on Islamic architecture in general. During winter 2019, she has been an AKPIA associate at Harvard University to work on her book manuscript. Her scholarship was also supported by postdoctoral fellowships from the University of Bonn\u2019s Annmarie-Schimmel Kolleg and the Art Histories Program of the Forum Transregionale Studien Berlin. She has internationally conducted research as a visiting scholar at various institutes such as the Kunsthistorisches Institute in Florenz and the Art History Department of the Freie Universit\u00e4t, Berlin. She has also been a research affiliate of the McGill based research project, \u201cEarly Modern Conversions.\u201d Her forthcoming articles and works in progress range from the relationship between architectural practice, mathematical knowledge, and social affairs in imperial Istanbul to the link between architecture and music in early modern societies.<\/p>\n
