As the symposium& rsquo\;s title reminds us\, capturing complete historical accounts of inte rior spaces is largely a hypothetical ideal. From activation through use t o the clutter of quotidian life\, much of what makes interior spaces so vi tal to study eludes capture in conventional historical sources. This sympo sium presents works that peer into those gaps between records and reality\ , probing the role of fiction\, fabulation\, and unconventional archives i n historical research. \;

Grad uate students\, postdocs and recent graduates from diverse disciplinary fi elds of study will present short talks that explore the theme of facticity and fiction in relation to the study\, construction\, and imagination of historic interiors. The six presentations explore topics such as the limit s of conventional archival sources for researching interiors\, interiors&n bsp\;as \;archives\; sites of (literary\, visual\, or politic al) fiction production\; and fictional spaces as historical sources.
