SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Welcome Meeting One: What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for our first meeting of the IHC-sponsored Research Focus Group “What is a Shakespeare?” This will be the first of two welcome meetings we are hosting for the group (in order to cover more scheduling needs). The second meeting will be Thursday\, October 7th at 11am PST (more info here). \n“What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media” is an interdisciplinary group of graduate students and faculty focused on investigating the notion of “global Shakespeare.” We are interested in understanding both the ways that Shakespeare has been adapted in a global context and how an emphasis on Shakespeare has obscured other valuable insights culturally\, socially\, theoretically\, and politically. \nZoom meeting link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/88212028319 \n

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Making Sense of Melothesia: Embodying the Zodiac in Ancient Rome and India
DESCRIPTION:In this talk Tejas Aralere will present a comparative analysis of the zodiacal melothesia as it appears in Manilius’s Astronomica\, a Latin astrological epic poem (ca. 20–40 CE)\, and in Sphujidhvaja’s Yavana Jātaka ( “Greek Horoscopy”)\, a Sanskrit astrological treatise (ca. second century CE). Melothesia refers to the mapping of the twelve signs of the Babylonian zodiac on twelve regions of the human body over which they possess particular influence. In a brief discussion of the connections between these two texts\, Aralere will show how the Romans and Indians employ the zodiacal melothesia in strikingly different ways and for different purposes that reflect their distinctive cultural contexts. This makes earlier theories that posit “direct transmission” of the Yavana Jātaka from Greece to India highly implausible. Aralere’s comparative study will illuminate the connections between Manilius’s use of melothesia and Roman imperial political ideologies and Sphujidhvaja’s use of melothesia and Vedic ritual and legal traditions. \nThis event will be held in person (4080 HSSB) with the option to join via Zoom here: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/81601164112. \nTejas Aralere is a doctoral student in the Department of Classics at UC Santa Barbara. His research explores the complex networks of exchange of ancient astronomical\, astrological\, and medical knowledge between the Mediterranean and India and seeks to re-evaluate Orientalist narratives that claim that “rational” scientific knowledge flowed unidirectionally from the ancient Mediterranean to India. \nSponsored by the IHC South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group and UCSB Department of Classics

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Reading Group Discussion: The Possibilities of Undisciplining with Sharon Kinoshita’s “Worlding Medieval French Literature”
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on October 18th at 2 pm in HSSB 3001E for a reading group discussion of Sharon Kinoshita’s chapter\, “Worlding Medieval French Literature\,” in eds. Christie McDonald and Susan Rubin Suleiman\, French Global: A New Approach to Literary History (New York: Columbia University Press\, 2010). As the first IHC Un-disciplining Premodern Histories of Race and Gender Research Focus Group event of the year\, we will begin by discussing Kinoshita’s chapter and where un-disciplining and re-disciplining might possibly lead us as we focus our attention on the intersections of premodern histories of race and gender beyond a Eurocentric purview. Please email jessicazisa@ucsb.edu for access to the reading. \nSponsored by the IHC Un-disciplining Premodern Histories of Race and Gender Research Focus Group and UCSB Medieval Studies

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Chalk Talk: Moving Beyond One Dimensional Shakespeare in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Students often shy away from Shakespeare in their classes\, but educators can also get nervous about teaching the Bard! Our goal for our pedagogical discussion is to reflect on our own experiences learning about and teaching Shakespeare in the classroom and how we can enhance our future teaching practices\, particularly through the lens of utilizing global media and socio-culturally aware pedagogy. We will provide links to optional pre-event resources after registration\, but we invite everyone from any discipline interested in developing their understanding of the Bard in the classroom to join us in our discussion. \nSponsored by the IHC What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media Research Focus Group \nRegister to Attend \nZoom attendance link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/81896036637

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Exploding the Khoi and San Colonial Stereotypes\, Reclaiming African Histories
DESCRIPTION:Academic historians have largely represented the Khoi and the San people of Southern Africa as marginal to the production of the region’s history\, deleting their place in the emergence and development of African civilization and self-liberation. As a public historian\, intellectual\, activist and healer\, Attaqua’s voice has intervened to forcefully reframe the history of the indigenous people of Southern Africa. In this talk\, she will speak about the Khoi and San’s long struggle against the historical and epistemic silencing. \nAttaqua is a South African indigenous historian\, social justice activist\, knowledge keeper\, and oral and visual storyteller. She was born in District Six\, Cape Town\, in 1964. She is from the clan Herandien from Zoar\, the Attaqua nation in the Western Cape. A fighter against the Apartheid state\, she was forced to flee South Africa to Germany and the United Kingdom\, where she studied and assisted the banned South African Congress of Trade Unions. She returned to South Africa in 1990 where she continued to work for the Department of International Affairs of the African National Congress. In 1994\, Attaqua joined the film industry where she cut her teeth in fiction and documentary film making. She lives in Johannesburg where she works doing holistic indigenous treatments and consultations dealing with colonial\, inter-generational\, historical and oppression trauma. \nCo-sponsored by the IHC African Studies Research Focus Group and the Africa Center \nZoom attendance link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/86978353518?pwd=dzZsQ0ZsOVVaNmhFTjR3bk95K3ZEZz09 \n
