Portrait

Dr. Miriam Adelman is a Professor of Sociology and teaches in the Graduate Programs in Sociology and Literary Studies at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), Curitiba, Brazil.  She has been involved in sociological research on the Brazilian equestrian world since 1995, focusing largely but not exclusively on gender issues therein.  She is co-editor of an earlier  Springer volume on equestrian practice, Riding around the World:  Gender in Equestrian Sport (Adelman and Knijnik, eds., 2013).   A longtime fan of the American Quarter Horse, she has recently shifted her favors, in light  of new encounters with the southern Brazilian Cavalo Crioulo.

Dr. Kirrilly Thompson is an Associate Professor at Central Queensland University’s Appleton Institute. She has conducted ethnographic research on human-horse relations and equestrian cultures since 2000. With interests in animal attachment, risk perception, and behavior change, Kirrilly has researched mounted bullfighting in Spain, showjumping in Europe and Eventing in Australia. In 2015, Kirrilly was one of ABC Radio National’s Top 5 Science Communicators Under 40. She lives in the locale of South Australia where she practices the global sport of dressage on a mare created from frozen semen imported from Germany.

Drs. Adelman and Thompson collaborated previously on the book ‘Gender and Equestrian Sport:  Riding Around the World’ (2013).
