SUMMARY:Imagining California Talk: Writing Our Californias
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, America has imagined California novels as placed in locations like Hollywood or San Francisco. But\, as Susan Straight will discuss in her presentation\, other geographies are as beautiful\, tragic\, and full of narratives set in remote canyons\, inland citrus groves\, ancient ranchos\, and hidden deserts. Straight’s characters\, who might be seventh generation Californian or people just arrived\, live in the places she’s known forever\, hidden kingdoms of love and redemption amid the sycamore trees. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow. \nStraight is Distinguished Professor of Creative Writing at the University of California\, Riverside\, where she has taught since 1988. Her most recent novel Mecca (2022) was a finalist for The Kirkus Prize and named a best novel of the year by The Washington Post and NPR\, as well as a Top Ten California Book by the New York Times\, and it was the winner of the Southwest Book of the Year for Fiction. \nHer memoir In the Country of Women (2020) was longlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Excellence\, was a Finalist for the Clara Johnson Prize for Women’s Literature\, and named a best book of 2019 by NPR\, Code Switch\, Real Simple\, and others. \nShe is also the author of the novels Aquaboogie (1990)\, I Been In Sorrow’s Kitchen and Licked Out All The Pots (1992)\, Blacker Than a Thousand Midnights (1994)\, The Gettin Place (1996)\, and Highwire Moon (2001)\, which was a finalist for the National Book Award and won the Commonwealth of California Gold Medal for Fiction. A Million Nightingales (2006) was a Finalist for the 2006 Los Angeles Times Book Prize. Take One Candle Light a Room (2010) was named a best novel of 2010 by The Washington Post\, Los Angeles Times\, and Kirkus. Her novel Between Heaven and Here (2012) was named a Best Book of 2012 by the Los Angeles Times and The Daily Beast. She has also published numerous essays\, articles\, and stories in magazines and journals. Her short story “The Golden Gopher” won the 2008 Edgar Award\, and her short story “El Ojo De Agua” won a 2007 O. Henry Prize. \nIn 2021\, Straight was named Woman of the Year for the 61st Assembly District by Assemblyman Jose Medina\, for her thirty years of writing stories of African-American\, Mexican-American\, Asian-American\, and immigrant life in southern California\, and bringing little-known histories\, especially of women\, into American books\, museums\, magazines\, and libraries. In 2014\, Straight received the Kirsch Award for Lifetime Achievement from the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. In 2011\, she received the Gina Berriault Award for Fiction from San Francisco State University. Straight received the Lannan Prize for Fiction in 2007 and a Guggenheim Fellowship for Fiction in 1998. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Imagining California series and the Diana and Simon Raab Writer-in-Residence Program

SUMMARY:Humanities Decanted: Liz Carlisle
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a dialogue between Liz Carlisle (Environmental Studies) and Peter Alagona (Environmental Studies) about Carlisle’s new book\, Healing Grounds: Climate\, Justice\, and the Deep Roots of Regenerative Farming. Refreshments will be served. \nA powerful movement is happening in farming today—farmers are reconnecting with their roots to fight climate change. For one woman\, that has meant learning her tribe’s history to help bring back the buffalo. For another\, it has meant preserving forest purchased by her great-great-uncle\, among the first wave of African Americans to buy land. Others are rejecting monoculture to grow corn\, beans\, and squash the way farmers in Mexico have done for centuries. Still others are rotating crops for the native cuisines of those who fled the “American wars” in Southeast Asia. In Healing Grounds\, Liz Carlisle tells the stories of Indigenous\, Black\, Latinx\, and Asian American farmers who are reviving their ancestors’ methods of growing food—techniques long suppressed by the industrial food system. These farmers are restoring native prairies\, nurturing beneficial fungi\, and enriching soil health. While feeding their communities and revitalizing cultural ties to land\, they are steadily stitching ecosystems back together and repairing the natural carbon cycle. This\, Carlisle shows\, is the true regenerative agriculture – not merely a set of technical tricks for storing CO2 in the ground\, but a holistic approach that values diversity in both plants and people. \nLiz Carlisle is an Associate Professor in the Environmental Studies Program at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, where her work focuses on fostering a more just and sustainable food system. She holds a Ph.D. in Geography from UC Berkeley and a B.A. in Folklore and Mythology from Harvard University\, and she formerly served as Legislative Correspondent for Agriculture and Natural Resources in the Office of U.S. Senator Jon Tester. Recognized for her academic publishing with the Elsevier Atlas Award\, which honors research with social impact\, Liz has also written numerous pieces for general audience readers\, in the New York Times\, Los Angeles Times\, Business Insider\, and Stanford Social Innovation Review. She is the author of two books about transition to sustainable farming: Lentil Underground (winner of the 2016 Montana Book Award) and Grain by Grain\, coauthored with farmer Bob Quinn. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Alice in Wonderland as a Fairytale and a Resource Book in China
DESCRIPTION:This talk focuses on some semiotic aspects of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and its unrivaled reception in China with special reference to the first Chinese translation by Y. R. Chao in 1922. In view of the complex addresser-addressee relationships in “children’s literature\,” which denotes literature of\, for\, and in some cases\, by children\, this study distinguishes Charles Dodgson the man who wrote as a child for the Liddell Sisters and Charles Dodgson the mathematician and logician who wrote as an adult for his colleagues as well as children readers\, and Lewis Carroll the verbal artist and storyteller who wrote as both for readers of all ages and all times. It also distinguishes Chao the mathematician and musical artist who recreated the fairytale that inspired Chinese children’s literature\, Chao the linguist and verbal artist who made poetic innovations and stylistic experiments with vernacular Chinese in its formative stage\, and Chao the philosopher and semiotician who outlined principles and meta-principles of literary translation in his paratexts (i.e. Preface and Translator’s Notes)\, which metatextually foreshadowed\, and offered insights into\, a number of present-day academic disciplines. In view of the double nature of the “text” of both Carroll’s and Chao’s\, this study highlights the discursive role of the translator as rewriter and makes distinctions of “texts” of the same work and their different types of “reader.” By analyzing the (un)translatability of Carroll’s verbal nonsense\, logical absurdities\, and metalinguistic propositions that blatantly defy literary translation\, this study highlights Chao’s extraordinary feats and explains why Chao’s Alice has eclipsed more than 360 subsequent Chinese translations since 1922. The talk will conclude that the Chinese Alice is characterized with the following features: as representation of a fairytale and recreation of a piece of children’s literature\, it has fascinated the child and the child that survives in the adult\, considering many adults read children’s literature and re-read their own childhood readings; as an exemplary work of translation and translation studies\, it has appealed to the literary translator and translation critic; and as an unmatched multidisciplinary resource book\, it has offered deep insights to practitioners of semiotics\, linguistics\, pragmatics\, stylistics\, and literary studies in the Chinese context. \nZongxin Feng is a Professor of Linguistics and English Language/Literature at Tsinghua University\, Beijing. He got his Ph.D. at Peking University (1998) and worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Beijing Foreign Studies University (1998-2000). He was a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University (2003-2004) and the University of Cambridge (2007)\, and a Fulbright Research Scholar at the University of California\, Berkeley (2009-2010). His research interests are linguistics\, pragmatics\, stylistics\, narratology\, and translatology\, with articles on pragmastylistics of dramatic texts\, fictional narrative as history\, lexicon as narrative practice\, cognitive studies of fictional narrative\, and the translator’s role in literary discourse\, etc. published in Semiotica\, Neohelicon\, Narrative\, Language and Literature\, and Perspectives: Studies in Translatology. His publications on Alice studies include “Translation and Reconstruction of a Wonderland: Alice’s Adventures in China” (2009)\, “Reflections on the Reversed ‘Jabberwocky’ in TTLG” (one of the “Eight Retakes”) (2021)\, writings in each of the three volumes of Alice in a World of Wonderlands (Oak Knoll\, 2015)\, and book chapters “The Style(s) of a Classic in the Translation and Back-translation” (2016) and “A Mathematician’s Fairy Tale: Alice in Wonderland” (2019) in English in China. His translations (into Chinese) include Hexaflexagons and Other Mathematical Diversions: The First SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Book of Mathematical Puzzles and Games (1959/1988) and The Second SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Book of Mathematical Puzzles and Diversions (1961/1987) by Martin Gardner\, author of The Annotated Alice (1960). \nZoom attendance link \nSponsored by the IHC’s Global Childhood Ecologies Research Focus Group\, Comparative Literature\, East Asia Center\, and Translation Studies

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Roman-Persian Relations: The Emperor Jovian and the Syriac "Julian Romance"
DESCRIPTION:The Roman emperor Jovian (363-364) only ruled for eight months and has not received much attention in scholarship. However\, he is more than a footnote in history. After the reign of Julian\, he returned to the policies of Constantius II and Constantine the Great. His peace agreement with the Sassanid king Shapur II also had great impact for Roman-Persian relations. \nThe first part of this presentation evaluates the peace agreement\, the responses to it\, and its long-term influence on the relationship between the Roman and Persian empire. Jovian had an unexpected afterlife in the so-called “Julian Romance\,” a rarely studied text of Christian historical fiction. This Christian narrative presents Jovian as an ideal Christian emperor and a new Constantine. It offers also surprising perspectives on Roman-Persian relations\, which will be discussed in the second part of the presentation. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Ancient Borderlands Research Focus Group\, California Consortium for Late Antiquity\, and Department of History

SUMMARY:Imagining California Talk: The Dreamt Land: How the Invention of California Became Miracle and Ruin
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, journalist Mark Arax will discuss how California’s capture of land and water is the story of a people’s defiance of nature and the wonders and devastation it has wrought. It’s a tale of magic and madness in the arid West\, of genocide and endless extraction\, of redirected rivers and ever higher dams and deeper wells\, of imported workers left behind in the sun and the fatigued earth made to give more even as it keeps sinking. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow. \nMark Arax has been called a “21st-Century John Steinbeck” for his books that pry open the soul of California. A writer of essays\, history\, biography\, and journalism\, he is a two-time winner of the California Book Award and a recipient of Stanford University’s William Saroyan International Prize for Writing. His most recent work\, The Dreamt Land: Chasing Water and Dust Across California\, a national bestseller\, has been hailed by critics as one of the most important books ever written about the West. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Imagining California series and the Sara Miller McCune and George D.

SUMMARY:UCSB Library Exhibition: Fossil Free UC
DESCRIPTION:This UCSB Library exhibition (November 13\, 2023 – June 28\, 2024) celebrates the achievement of the student-led campaign as a testament to the power of collective action to transform our university and our world. \nBetween 2012-2019\, student activists led a UC-wide coalition– the Fossil Free UC campaign– to pressure the University to divest faculty and staff retirement funds from oil company shares. UCSB students were at the forefront of the movement\, working closely with their peers at other campuses. Their grassroots campaign exposed the disjuncture between public perception of Santa Barbara as a haven for environmentalism and the University’s investments in the fossil fuel industry. Through a strategic combination of demonstrations\, letter-writing\, and face-to-face conversations\, students and supporting faculty made it clear that the UC was complicit and profiting from environmental destruction caused by oil companies. \nThis exhibition was co-curated by Mona Damluji (Film and Media Studies\, UCSB) and Andrea Serna (History\, UCSB). \nCosponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center’s Re-Centering Energy Justice Research Focus Group\, Department of Environmental Studies\, and Mellon Sawyer Seminar on Energy Justice in Global Perspective

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Secret Clocks: The U.S. Military\, Einstein's Relativity\, and the Global Positioning System
DESCRIPTION:For nearly a decade\, beginning in the mid-1970s\, a debate unfolded among physicists and engineers over how best to include effects from Einstein’s general theory of relativity in the new military technology now known as the Global Positioning System (GPS). Although some exchanges were published in the open scientific literature\, much of the debate played out behind the scenes\, in memos\, reports\, and special review sessions arranged by the U.S. military. Theoretical physicists who had no relationship with the project criticized early efforts to incorporate relativistic effects within GPS designs\, complaining that significant information was not shared by military contractors. Other experts in relativity\, who consulted more closely with the U.S. Air Force while GPS was under development\, responded that the outside critics had little relevant experience with real-world engineering applications\, and that their criticisms amounted to mathematical irrelevancies. Throughout the debate\, few doubted that relativity — with its counterintuitive notions of space and time — needed to be taken seriously in the design and operation of GPS. Rather\, they disagreed over how best to incorporate deep lessons from relativity in an engineering-relevant way\, at a time when the stakes for the new military technology loomed large. \nDavid Kaiser is Germeshausen Professor of the History of Science and Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is the author of several award-winning books about modern physics. His latest book\, Quantum Legacies: Dispatches from an Uncertain World (2020)\, was named a Choice Outstanding Academic Title and also honored as among the best books of the year by Physics Today and Physics World magazines. A Fellow of the American Physical Society\, Kaiser has received MIT’s highest awards for excellence in teaching. His work has been featured in Science\, Nature\, the New York Times\, and the New Yorker magazine. His physics group’s recent efforts to conduct a “Cosmic Bell” test of quantum entanglement\, in collaboration with Nobel laureate Anton Zeilinger\, were featured in the documentary film Einstein’s Quantum Riddle. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Machines\, People\, and Politics Research Focus Group and the Department of History

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Brutal Beauty: Aesthetics and Aspiration in Urban India
DESCRIPTION:Jisha Menon will discuss her recent book\, Brutal Beauty: Aesthetics and Aspiration in Urban India. Brutal Beauty conveys the affective life of the city through multiple aesthetic projects that express a range of urban feelings\, including aspiration\, panic\, and obsolescence. As developers and policymakers remodel the city through tumultuous construction projects\, urban beautification\, privatization\, and other templated features of “world‑class cities\,” urban citizens are also changing. Sketching out scenes of urban aspiration and its dark underbelly\, the book delineates the creative and destructive potential of India’s lurch into contemporary capitalism\, exploring art’s capacity to absorb and critique liberalization’s discontents. Menon argues that neoliberalism isn’t just an economic\, social\, and political phenomenon\, it is also an aesthetic project. \nJisha Menon is Professor of Theater and Performance Studies\, and (by courtesy) of Comparative Literature at Stanford University. She is the author of Brutal Beauty: Aesthetics and Aspiration in Urban India (Northwestern UP\, 2021) and The Performance of Nationalism: India\, Pakistan and the Memory of Partition (Cambridge UP\, 2013) and coeditor of Violence Performed: Local Roots and Global Routes of Conflict (with Patrick Anderson) (Palgrave-Macmillan Press\, 2009) and Performing the Secular: Religion\, Representation\, and Politics (with Milija Gluhovic) (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2017.) \nSponsored by the IHC’s Performing Race\, Performing Space Research Focus Group and the Department of Theater and Dance

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Between and Beyond Images and Words: A Multimodal Stylistic Study of Children’s Picturebooks
DESCRIPTION:A multimodal approach to children’s picturebooks focuses on how images and words (and their interactions) collaboratively make meaning. Narrative theory enriches picturebook studies by demonstrating how paratextual elements (book cover\, author’s note\, afterword\, etc.) complement the body text. Drawing on Gérard Genette’s (1997) distinction of “peritext” and “epitext” and Nina Nørgaard’s (2018) multimodal stylistics of the novel\, this talk treats another multimodal dimension of “quasi-textual” elements or features (such as typography\, layout\, page-turn\, gutter\, blank space\, paper quality\, etc.) that undergird the picturebook and enhance the reader’s engagement with the story. It concludes that a full understanding of picturebooks needs to take these quasi-textual aspects into account. \nZheng Ren is a Visiting Graduate Student at the University of California\, Santa Barbara and a Ph.D. candidate at Tsinghua University. Her research interests are multimodal stylistics and cognitive poetics of children’s picturebooks. She is a co-convener of 2023-2024 IHC Global Childhood Ecologies Research Focus Group and a member on the organizing team of the 26th International Research Society for Children’s Literature (IRSCL) Congress 2023. \nZoom attendance link here \nSponsored by the IHC’s Global Childhood Ecologies Research Focus Group and the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies

SUMMARY:Humanities Decanted: Daughter of the Dragon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a dialogue between Yunte Huang (English) and Constance Penley (Film and Media Studies) about Huang’s new book\, Daughter of the Dragon: Anna May Wong’s Rendezvous with American History. Refreshments will be served. \nDaughter of the Dragon is a trenchant reclamation of the Chinese American movie star\, whose battles against cinematic exploitation and endemic racism are set against the currents of twentieth-century history. Born into the steam and starch of a Chinese laundry\, Anna May Wong (1905–1961) emerged from turn-of-the-century Los Angeles to become Old Hollywood’s most famous Chinese American actress\, a screen siren who captivated global audiences and signed her publicity photos—with a touch of defiance—“Orientally yours.” Now\, more than a century after her birth\, Yunte Huang narrates Wong’s tragic life story\, retracing her journey from Chinatown to silent-era Hollywood\, and from Weimar Berlin to decadent\, prewar Shanghai\, and capturing American television in its infancy. As Huang shows\, Wong’s rendezvous with history features a remarkable parade of characters\, including a smitten Walter Benjamin and (an equally smitten) Marlene Dietrich. Challenging the parodically racist perceptions of Wong as a “Dragon Lady\,” “Madame Butterfly\,” or “China Doll\,” Huang’s biography becomes a truly resonant work of history that reflects the raging anti-Chinese xenophobia\, unabashed sexism\, and ageism toward women that defined both Hollywood and America in Wong’s all-too-brief fifty-six years on earth. \nYunte Huang is Distinguished Professor of English at UC Santa Barbara and is the author of Chinese Whispers: Toward a Transpacific Poetics (2022)\, Transpacific Imaginations: History\, Literature\, Counterpoetics (2008)\, CRIBS (2005)\, Transpacific Displacement: Ethnography\, Translation\, and Intertextual Travel in Twentieth-Century American Literature (2002)\, and Shi: A Radical Reading of Chinese Poetry (1997)\, and the translator into Chinese of Ezra Pound’s The Pisan Cantos. His book\, Charlie Chan: The Untold Story of the Honorable Detective and His Rendezvous with American History (Norton\, 2010)\, won the Edgar Award and was the finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award\, as well as being named a New York Times Notable Book and one of the Best Books of the Year by the San Francisco Chronicle\, Village Voice\, Amazon\, and Kirkus Reviews. A Guggenheim Fellow in 2014-15\, he has also published articles in the New York Times\, Chicago Tribune\, Daily Beast\, and others. His most recent book is Inseparable: The Original Siamese Twins and Their Rendezvous with American History (2018). \nSponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:TMI Talk: How Are You?  Sentiment\, Surveillance\, and Anti-Asian Racism
DESCRIPTION:Sentiment analysis entails the widespread surveillance of users’ posts and actions to determine how they feel. This talk outlines the importance of early- and mid-20th-century studies of women workers and Japanese and Japanese-American internees in U.S. WWII internment camps to the rise of sentiment analysis. A reception will follow. \nWendy Hui Kyong Chun is the Canada 150 Research Chair in New Media at Simon Fraser University and leads the Digital Democracies Institute\, which was launched in 2019. The Institute aims to integrate research in the humanities and data sciences to address questions of equality and social justice in order to combat the proliferation of online “echo chambers\,” abusive language\, discriminatory algorithms\, and mis/disinformation by fostering critical and creative user practices and alternative paradigms for connection. Chun is also the author of Discriminating Data: Correlation\, Neighborhoods\, and the New Politics of Recognition (2021); Updating to Remain the Same: Habitual New Media (2016); Programmed Visions: Software and Memory (2011); and Control and Freedom: Power and Paranoia in the Age of Fiber Optics (2006)\, as well as numerous articles and edited collections. She has received fellowships from various foundations and institutes\, including the Guggenheim Foundation\, ACLS\, American Academy of Berlin\, and Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard. She was formerly Professor and Chair of Modern Culture and Media at Brown University\, where she worked for almost two decades. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Too Much Information series and the Sara Miller McCune and George D.

SUMMARY:Imagining California Talk: Is Barbie Feminist? It's Complicated
DESCRIPTION:In 1994\, when M.G. Lord interviewed the California-based creators of the Barbie doll\, she had no doubt Barbie would be as provocative in 2023 as she was in 1959. But Lord did not anticipate that this plastic object\, once tarred as anti-feminist\, would evolve into a touchstone for understanding feminism—as well as the star of a blockbuster attack on patriarchy. This talk will explore the Greta Gerwig effect and the 64 years of changes in Barbie’s jobs\, ethos\, and even body. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow. \nM.G. Lord is the co-host of the podcast L.A. Made: The Barbie Tapes\, which tells the story of the doll’s creation in the voices of its original creators. She is also the author of Forever Barbie: The Unauthorized Biography of a Real Doll and The Accidental Feminist: How Elizabeth Taylor Raised Our Consciousness and We Were Too Distracted by Her Beauty to Notice. Her 2005 family memoir\, Astro Turf\, is a cultural history of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) as well as the basis for L.A. Made: Blood\, Sweat and Rockets\, a 12-part podcast that she hosts. It tells the story of the early days of rocketry in Southern California\, and the unusual figures—a practitioner of “Sex Magick” and an accused Communist—who founded JPL. Lord is Associate Professor of the Practice of English at the University of Southern California. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Imagining California series and the IHC Idee Levitan Endowment

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Writing Human Rights Across Borders
DESCRIPTION:Over the last two decades\, the figure of the migrant has become the central imaginary subject of human rights precisely because the universal acknowledgement of migrancy as a human rights issue has been lacking and inconsequential. During the same time\, a global literature of migration has emerged as an important medium that transcends national boundaries and calls for more universal formations of the legal status and acknowledgment of migrants as subject(s) of human rights. Such fictions of migrancy do not only illustrate how subjects on the move are imagined but emphatically link the universality of human rights and the global scale of injustice toward migrants to literature as a universal form of political rhetoric and a medium of social justice. Migrancy fictions\, Schneck and Zander will thus argue\, negotiate the contradictions and conflicts inherent in the legal formation of the migrant\, and reflect on how literary forms and narrative modes may present and suggest alternative visions of migrant subjectivity and agency. \nLaura Zander is a Research Fellow at the “Law and Literature” Collaborative Research Centre at the University of Muenster. Publications include Writing Back / Reading Forward: Reconsidering the Postcolonial Approach (Berlin 2019)\, as well as articles on law and literature\, gender and postcolonial studies\, and South African and Caribbean literature. Most recently\, she edited the volume Europe in Law and Literature: Transdisciplinary Voices in Conversation (DeGruyter 2023). Her current research focuses on human rights\, subjects on the move\, and fictions of migrancy. \nPeter Schneck is Professor and Chair of American Literature and Culture at Osnabrück University and currently the director of the Institute for English and American Studies. His publications include The U.S. and the Questions of Rights (Heidelberg 2020; co-ed) and Rhetoric and Evidence: Legal Conflict and Literary Representation in American Culture (Berlin\, 2011). Since 2019\, he has been leading a research group at Osnabrück University on the formation of literary property within the Collaborative Research Centre (SFB 1385) “Law and Literature\,” hosted by the WWU Münster and funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). His current research is concerned with human rights and global literatures of migration\, flight\, and dislocation. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Legal Humanities Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Thanatofuturism: Making Space for the Marginal at a Tomb Shrine in Bangalore
DESCRIPTION:In the middle of Bangalore\, India\, a small dargah (Sufi tomb shrine) is a space of possibility for multiple marginalized groups\, facilitating imagined futures that include Muslims\, subaltern Hindus\, Dalits\, and hijras as full citizens of the Indian polity. At a time when powerful actors seek to limit national belonging to certain Hindu Indians\, Anna Bigelow argues that we have much to learn from such shrines and the people who intersect through them as they ground possible futures in the ethics and etiquette of the saintly dead and their spaces. \nAnna Bigelow is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Stanford University\, specializing in Islamic Studies and the religions of South Asia and the Middle East. Her work focuses on Muslim devotional life\, especially sacred spaces and ritual practice. Her current research concerns the circulation of devotional objects at Sufi shrines in India and Turkey. \nSponsored by the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group\, Walter H.

SUMMARY:Imagining California Inaugural Talk: Imagine This: The (Re)generation of Place
DESCRIPTION:Seeded by sorrow\, the evolving work that Cherríe Moraga will present journeys through her home-country of California\, marking her footsteps alongside Native ecologies and Chicanx genealogies. In part\, it is reflective of a queer embodied half-century inquiry—writing of place and out of place\, perhaps unknowingly inspired by a once paradisal Califas of women of color warriors. \nHere\, nature and the implicate order of its elements (fire\, air\, water\, and earth) become illuminated signposts along the road toward an interrelational “State” of being and the formation of a living politic of radical optimism in the face of global despair. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow. \nCherríe Moraga is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of English at UCSB and also serves as the Co-Director of Las Maestras Center for Xicana[x] Indigenous Thought\, Art\, & Social Praxis. She is an internationally recognized poet\, essayist\, and playwright and the co-editor of the avant-garde 1981 feminist anthology\, This Bridge Called My Back: Writings by Radical Women of Color. She is the author of several collections of her own writings\, including A Xicana Codex of Changing Consciousness. Three earlier works\, Loving in the War Years\, The Last Generation\, and Waiting in the Wings: Portrait of a Queer Motherhood were published in new editions by Haymarket Books in 2022 and 2023. In 2019\, Native Country of the Heart—A Memoir was published to great acclaim by Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux. She is the recipient of numerous awards including the United States Artists Rockefeller Fellowship for Literature\, the Barnard Medal of Distinction\, and the American Studies Association Lifetime Achievement Award. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Imagining California series

SUMMARY:RFG Conference: Emotions in History: Boundary-Crossing Adventures
DESCRIPTION:“Emotions in History: Boundary-Crossing Adventures” is a truly interdisciplinary collaboration between History and Psychology. The symposium features two keynote speakers\, Professor Leda Cosmides (UCSB) representing Psychology\, and Professor Anna Shields (Princeton) representing the Humanities. The roundtable discussion will occur between three members of Team Psychology and three members of Team Humanities. Each speaker will deliver a short presentation on a “boundary-crossing adventure” that has happened in their own research. Psychologists will discuss how a specific scholar/publication in humanistic work has shed light on their work\, and humanists will discuss how a specific method/concept in psychology has inspired their consideration of emotions. Following the short presentations we will open the floor for a discussion with everyone in the Zoom room. We hope to have a highly interactive discussion where we can seek more common ground\, ask generative questions\, and promote direct dialogues. \nWatch recordings of this event:\nDay 1 Keynotes\nDay 2 Roundtable \nSponsored by the IHC’s Emotions in History Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Are the Chornobyl Books Nature-Oriented?: Ukrainian Children’s Literature in Memory Dimensions
DESCRIPTION:The war in Ukraine raises the issue of a new nuclear threat\, as five nuclear power plants are located there. Although the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the north of Ukraine is non-functional\, the level of radiation is still very high. Moreover\, the largest nuclear plant in Europe\, the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in the south of Ukraine\, is threatened with a new nuclear catastrophe and radiation pollution since the Russian military invasion (Joint Statement 2022). Ukrainians know what “nuclear pollution”\, “ecological genocide”\, and “eco-memory” mean because of the Chornobyl accident\, the great catastrophe which occurred in 1986 near Kyiv\, the Ukrainian capital. In honor of this infamous event\, Ukraine annually celebrates The Chornobyl Disaster Remembrance Day on April 26. This cultural memory is embodied in Ukrainian children’s literature as well as in a cartoon and computer game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Ukrainian children’s literature on the Chornobyl issue covers different genres\, such as short novels\, novels\, eco-comics\, and picturebooks. This talk assumes that literature recalls human and nonhuman interactions through cultural memory and eco-memory. Analyzing the Ukrainian children’s literature on Chornobyl issues\, it aims to show that this literature is nature-oriented within memory studies. To test this hypothesis\, Maryna Vardanian will discuss the following questions: How do nature-oriented writings interact with memory studies? What is the presence of the nonhuman environment in the human environment\, in particular in Yevhen Hutsalo’s Children of Chornobyl (1995) and Sasha Kochubei’s Mistress of the Forest (2016)? How does the changed Chornobyl nonhuman environment interact with the human one (in the case of Anatolii Andrzhevskyi’s Chornobyl Dog Axel (2019) and Bohdan Krasavtsev’s Chornobyl Oasis (2021))? What is the ethical orientation towards the environment of picturebooks such as Kateryna Mikhalitsyna’s The Flowers beside the Fourth Reactor (2020)\, Kateryna Mikhalitsyna & Stanislav Dvornytskyi’s Reactors Do not Explode. A Brief History of the Chornobyl Disaster (2020)\, and Kirill Stepanets’ et al. Interesting Chornobyl. 100 Symbols (2022)? \nDr. Maryna Vardanian is a Visiting Scholar at the Institute for Translating and Interpreting\, Heidelberg University (Germany). She teaches Children’s Literature\, Translation Studies\, and Comparative Literature courses as a Professor of the Department of Translation and Slavic Studies at the Kryvyi Rih State Pedagogical University (Ukraine). Her major research interests are Ukrainian diasporic and contemporary children and YA literature\, cultural memory\, and ecocriticism. Her current research project examines cultural and ideological approaches in the translation of children’s literature. She is a member of the International Research Society for Children’s Literature and a member of the editorial board of journals and program committees’ member. \nZoom attendance link here \nSponsored by the IHC’s Global Childhood Ecologies Research Focus Group and the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Diving Into the Lake: On the Necessity\, Joy\, and Anxiety of (Re)Translating Tulsidas’s Rāmcaritmānas
DESCRIPTION:The epic retelling of the Rāmāyaṇa\, composed in ca. 1574 CE by the saintly poet Tulsidas\, in the dialect of Hindi known as Avadhi\, has long been considered one of the most sacred and beloved texts of the North Indian Hindu tradition. It has also\, through ten complete English renderings\, become one of the most translated works of premodern Indian vernacular literature. In this talk\, Philip Lutgendorf will first briefly introduce the epic and some of its notable features as a work in the larger “Rāmāyaṇa tradition\,” which has its locus classicus in the Sanskrit epic attributed to the sage Valmiki (ca. 3rd century BCE?). He will then reflect on the difficulties that the text presents for the translator into English\, discuss why he is offering a new translation at this time\, and share some examples of his approach. \nPhilip Lutgendorf is Professor Emeritus of Hindi and Modern Indian Studies at the University of Iowa. His research focuses on written and oral narrative traditions of South Asia and on Indian film. He served as President of the American Institute of Indian Studies (2010–2018) and currently chairs its Board of Trustees. His publications include The Life of a Text Performing the Ramcaritmanas of Tulsidas (1991); Hanuman’s Tale\, The Messages of a Divine Monkey (2007); and The Epic of Ram\, a seven-volume edition and translation of the Rāmcaritmānas for the Murty Classical Library of India (2016–2023). \nSponsored by the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group

SUMMARY:“It Calls You Back and Draws You In”: The Personal Papers of Luis J. Rodríguez
DESCRIPTION:Luis J. Rodríguez is an award-winning author and activist whose memoir about life in a gang\, Always Running\, is as popular as ever in 2023\, its 30th anniversary. The UCSB Library Special Research Collections recently acquired Rodríguez’s personal papers\, giving scholars and students an opportunity to see the personal and social context behind Always Running and Rodríguez’s other prose\, poetry\, and non-fiction\, as well as his involvement in gubernatorial races\, revolutionary organizations\, and the prisoners’ rights movement. In this talk\, Jo Metcalf will discuss her use of the archive as she and co-editor Ben Olguín (UCSB) create an anthology of the life and works of Rodríguez. Engaging with this collection of letters\, manuscripts\, contracts\, newspapers\, and photos exposes both the excitement and frustration that archives often hold. Ben Olguín will introduce the talk\, which will be followed by a reception. \nJosephine Metcalf is a Senior Lecturer in American Studies at the University of Hull\, UK and an IHC Visiting Scholar. She is the co-founder and co-director of the Cultures of Incarceration Centre and Programme Director for the MA in Incarceration Cultures. Her research focuses on the representation of prisons and street gangs in literature and other pop-culture forms\, and the ways these have been received by audiences. \nCosponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center and the UCSB Library Special Research Collections \nImage: Luis J.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Discussion: Energy and Environmental Justice
DESCRIPTION:Join the Re-centering Energy Justice Research Focus Group for a roundtable discussion. Special guests Sourayan Mookerjea and J. Mijin Cha will be discussants for this event celebrating a new book by UCSB researcher Tristan Partridge. \nSourayan Mookerjea is Director of the Intermedia Research Studio and Associate Professor in Sociology at the University of Alberta. His work addresses Commons Theory\, Decolonizing Critical Theory\, Intermedia Research Creation\, and Development Dispossession. \nMijin Cha’s research focuses on labor/climate coalitions and just transitions. She is also a fellow at the Worker Institute\, Cornell University\, where she works on the Labor Leading on Climate initiative. Professor Cha is faculty in the environmental studies department at UC Santa Cruz. \nTristan Partridge is a Lecturer in Global Studies at UCSB and Co-Founder of the CREW Center for Restorative Environmental Work. \nPartridge’s book\, Energy and Environmental Justice\, reconnects energy research with the radical\, reflexive\, and transformative approaches of Environmental Justice. Moving beyond the popular “energy justice” framework both analytically and politically\, this book examines how energy relates to structural issues of exploitation\, racism\, colonialism\, extractivism\, the commodification of work\, and the systemic devaluing of diverse “others.” The result is a new agenda for critical energy research that builds on a growing global movement of environmental justice activism and scholarship. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Re-centering Energy Justice Research Focus Group\, Mellon-Sawyer Seminar on Energy Justice in Global Perspective\, and CREW Center for Restorative Environmental Work

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Worship Space Acoustics: Exploring Its Application in Hindu Temples
DESCRIPTION:Acoustically important aspects of Hindu worship include chants\, bells\, conch-shells\, and gongs. Every Hindu temple is fitted with bells that worshipers ring. Conch-shells and gongs are used at various times during pūjā rituals\, during which texts from the Vedas and other Sanskrit scriptures are chanted. These Vedic chants have phonetic characteristics such as pitch\, duration\, emphasis\, uniformity\, and juxtaposition. In this talk\, Shashank Aswathanarayana will discuss his postdoctoral research on the acoustics of Hindu temples in which he plans to build a complete acoustic image of five Hindu temples in South India and analyze the characteristics of the sounds within these temples as they relate to the effects on human consciousness. He also plans to develop and define new methods of acoustic characterization that are more appropriate for Hindu worship spaces than the traditional methods of acoustic characterization that have been developed for Christian worship spaces. \nShashank Aswathanarayana is a music technologist\, percussionist\, and research scholar from Bengaluru\, India\, who received his Ph.D. in Media Arts and Technology from the University of California\, Santa Barbara. In fall 2023\, he will embark on his postdoctoral research at American University in Washington\, DC\, as a Postdoctoral Fellow for Academic Diversity. \nSponsored by the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group
