Treatment and placement of the mentally ill and deviant quickly became a matter of significant social and cultural concern in colonial-era New Zealand. For her project, Sasha examined the process of constructing the Auckland Lunatic Asylum and grounds in the late 19th century and looked at how the physical spaces in which patients were kept served as a manifestation of sociocultural ideas about deviants and lunatics.
The Auckland History Initiative (AHI), a research collaboration at the University of Auckland, presents research projects from the 2023 Summer Scholars exploring aspects of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland's history. These students spend 12 weeks over the summer break researching in the varied and rich archives around Auckland.
Sasha presented this talk at the Central City Library on 1 March 2023 as part of the Auckland History Initiative Summer Scholars series (session two).
