SUMMARY:Symposium: Drawing Diversity: Identity\, Organizing\, and Imagining in Comics and Graphic Narratives
DESCRIPTION:“Drawing Diversity” seeks to highlight the research and ideas of comix scholars who research questions of power\, representation\, and identity in comics. The symposium hopes to engage the politics and poetics of representing the intersections of race\, nationhood\, gender\, and sexuality\, among other social locations\, through the comics form. Some central questions we will explore include: \n• What are the ethics and politics of visual representation amid the violent realities of white\nsupremacy\, heteropatriarchy\, imperialism and (neo)colonialism?\n• How can comics represent historical traumas both past and present?\n• Can the visual/verbal incite new modes of identification\, empathy\, and ethics in narrative?\n• What possibilities for activism (or artivism) exist within comics\, popular culture\, and literary studies across cultures and geographies?\n• How does graphic narrative (mis)represent individuals and communities?\n• What is the place of graphic narrative in a diverse classroom? \nFrederick Luis Aldama is University Distinguished Scholar as well as Arts & Humanities Distinguished Professor at The Ohio State University where he teaches Latino and Latin American literature\, comic books\, TV\, and film in the departments of English\, Spanish/Portuguese\, and Film Studies. He was honored with the 2016 American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education’s Outstanding Latino/a Faculty in Higher Education award as well as a recipient of the White House Bright Spot for Higher Education Award and the Ohio Education Summit Award for his Latino High School outreach program\, LASER. He is founder and co-director of The Humanities & Cognitive Sciences High School Summer Institute. \nSponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center; Department of Spanish and Portuguese; Department of English; American Cultures and Global Contexts Center; Global Latinidades Project & Erickson Endowed Chair; MultiCultural Center; Literature and the Mind Initiative\, and Hemispheric South/s Research Initiative

SUMMARY:Humanities Decanted: Queering Black Atlantic Religions: Transcorporeality in Candomblé\, Santería\, and Vodou
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a dialogue between Roberto Strongman (Black Studies) and Jennifer Tyburczy (Feminist Studies) about Strongman’s new book\, Queering Black Atlantic Religions: Transcorporeality in Candomblé\, Santería\, and Vodou. Refreshments will be served. \nIn Queering Black Atlantic Religions\, Roberto Strongman examines Haitian Vodou\, Cuban Lucumí/Santería\, and Brazilian Candomblé to demonstrate how religious rituals of trance possession allow humans to understand themselves as embodiments of the divine. In these rituals\, the commingling of humans and the divine produces gender identities that are independent of biological sex. As opposed to the Cartesian view of the spirit as locked within the body\, the body in Afro-diasporic religions is an open receptacle. Showing how trance possession is a primary aspect of almost all Afro-diasporic cultural production\, Strongman articulates transcorporeality as a black\, trans-Atlantic understanding of the human psyche\, soul\, and gender as multiple\, removable\, and external to the body. \nRoberto Strongman is Associate Professor in the Department of Black Studies at UC Santa Barbara. Dr. Strongman’s interdisciplinary approach encompasses the fields of Religion\, History\, and Sexuality in order to further his main area of research and teaching: Comparative Caribbean Cultural Studies. His articles have appeared in Journal of Haitian Studies\, Journal of Caribbean Studies\, Journal of Caribbean Literatures\, Callaloo\, Kunapipi\, Wadabagei\, and the Journal of Latin American Cultural Studies. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:Critical Mass Talk: Nations in Crisis\, People in Crisis: Connecting Upheaval
DESCRIPTION:IHC Director Susan Derwin asked Jared Diamond\, UCLA Professor of Geography\, a few questions about his work in light of the current pandemic. Read his comments here. \nNations that successfully navigate crises do so by making selective changes to their identities and actions. When individuals experience crises—mid-life\, financial\, health\, relationship—they may also adopt selective changes to overcome the situation. But some individuals\, like some nations\, are better at navigating upheaval than others. By drawing on the factors that counselors and psychotherapists have identified that affect the likelihood of overcoming personal crisis\, Diamond will examine the extent to which crisis response on the individual scale helps us to understand the outcomes of recent and impending national and world crises. \nJared Diamond is professor of Geography at UCLA and the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns\, Germs\, and Steel\, Collapse\, and other books. \nCopies of Diamond’s books will be available for purchase and signing. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Critical Mass series \nImage: Kinuko Y.

SUMMARY:Talk: "Send My Body to the Medical College": Alternative Afterlives in Turn of the Century America
DESCRIPTION:In 1876 American and English newspapers reported the extraordinary will made by an American woman living in London. Inspired by Bentham’s 1832 bequest of his body\, Susan Fletcher Smith approached the Royal College of Surgeons with the proposal that\, upon her death\, her body be “completely dissected in the most thorough manner known to science.” Moreover\, she stipulated that preference be given to persons of the female sex who wished to inspect the body in the various stages of dissection. The President of the College agreed to accept her proposal. Smith’s donation was one of some 450 reported in the press in the years between 1870 and 1940. This talk explores how donating one’s remains to a medical institution was transformed in this period from a bizarre and macabre eccentricity into an exemplar of enlightened corporeal philanthropy. \nSponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, the Dean of the Division of Humanities and Fine Arts\, Cottage Health\, and the Departments of History and Religious Studies

SUMMARY:Talk: The Emotional Landscape of Revolution: Russia 1905-1925
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I consider the shifting\, tumultuous\, and consequential field of emotions that contemporaries perceived as defining public life in Russia during its “revolutionary” age. I take this story from the stillborn revolution of 1905\, into global war and transnational revolution\, through a bloody civil war into the first years of peaceful “socialist construction.” Often categorized as “the public mood\,” a trope in Russian journalism and politics in the first half of the 20th century\, these emotions ranged from what was described as dark anguish to joyful enthusiasm. Texts to be considered include working-class poetry\, public art\, appeals\, petitions\, and memoirs. Topics range from street protests to efforts to create liberated new men and women\, including sexually. Key elements woven into this story of revolution and feeling include religion\, violence\, and language. I link all of these stories and themes with a methodological concern: how the study of emotion\, that most elusive of subjectivities\, illuminates experience and expression. \nMark Steinberg is a Professor of History at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He previously taught at Harvard and Yale Universities. His scholarly research and writing have focused on labor relations\, popular culture\, emotions\, religion\, violence\, revolution\, and the modern city. His major research fellowships and grants over the years have included SSRC\, NEH\, IREX\, Carnegie\, and Guggenheim. His recent books include Proletarian Imagination: Self\, Modernity\, and the Sacred in Russia\, 1910-1925 (Cornell\, 2002); Petersburg Fin-de-Siecle (Yale\, 2011); the seventh through ninth (2018) editions of A History of Russia with Nicholas Riasanovsky (Oxford); and The Russian Revolution\, 1905-1921 (Oxford 2017). He is currently working on two new books: Russian Utopians and\, for something completely different\, The Crooked and the Straight in the City: Moral Problems of Everyday Public Life in Odessa\, Bombay\, and New York City\, 1919-1939. \nSponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, East Asian Center\, Germanic and Slavic Studies\, MAT\, EALCS\, Comparative Culture\, and the Departments of History\, Religious Studies\, History of Art & Architecture\, English\, and Film Studies \n* This talk is the conference keynote of “An Emotional Revolution: Loves and Loyalties in Imperial Japan: 1868-1945\,” which is additionally sponsored by UCSB Division of Humanities and Fine Arts\, College of Letters & Science\, and Japanese Arts & Globalizations Research Group.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Symposium: Ancient Archives and Public History: Dispatches from the Papyrological Lost and Found
DESCRIPTION:Book of the Dead of the Priest of Horus\, Imhotep (Imuthes)\, ca. 332-200 B.C. \nFrom the poetry of Sappho to the New Testament\, texts written on papyrus have been preserved for millennia by arid conditions in Egypt\, excavated\, and collected in archives. This timely colloquium examines the legal and ethical problems surrounding these papyrological archives. Roberta Mazza will tell the story of how ancient papyri of unknown provenance were acquired by the Museum of the Bible and are now at the center of a scandal and police investigation. Anna Uhlig will discuss how Egyptian mummies have been destroyed in the quest to “recover” ancient texts and how we can use the Tebtunis archive at UC Berkeley to honor the “missing mummies” lost to us in the name of scholarship. \nRoberta Mazza is Lecturer in Greco-Roman Material Culture at the University of Manchester (UK); this Fall she holds the Tipton Distinguished Visiting Professorship in the Department of Religious Studies at UCSB. \nAnna Uhlig is Associate Professor of Classics at UC Davis. \nThe symposium will be moderated by Cavan Concannon\, who is Associate Professor of Religion at USC. \nThe Tipton Lecture is made possible by the J.E. and Lillian Byrne Tipton Endowment in Catholic Studies\, UCSB’s Department of Religious Studies\, and UCSB’s Ancient Borderlands Research Focus Group.

SUMMARY:Humanities Decanted: Borges\, Buddhism and World Literature: A Morphology of Renunciation Tales
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a dialogue between Dominique Jullien (French and Comparative Literature) and Sowon Park (English) about Jullien’s new book\, Borges\, Buddhism and World Literature: A Morphology of Renunciation Tales. Refreshments will be served. \nJullien’s latest book follows the renunciation story in Borges and beyond\, arguing for its centrality as a Borgesian compositional trope and as a Borgesian prism for reading a global constellation of texts. The renunciation story at the heart of Buddhism\, that of a king who leaves his palace to become an ascetic\, fascinated Borges because of its cross-cultural adaptability and metamorphic nature\, and because it resonated so powerfully across philosophy\, politics and aesthetics. From the story and its many variants\, Borges’s essays formulated a ‘morphological’ conception of literature (borrowing the idea from Goethe)\, whereby a potentially infinite number of stories were generated by transformation of a finite number of ‘archetypes’. The king-and-ascetic encounter also tells a powerful political story\, setting up a confrontation between power and authority; Borges’s own political predicament is explored against the rich background of truth-telling renouncers. In its poetic variant\, the renunciation archetype morphs into stories about art and artists\, with renunciation a key requirement of the creative process: the discussion weaves in and out of Borges to highlight modern writers’ debt to asceticism. Ultimately\, the enigmatic appeal of the renunciation story aligns it with the open-endedness of modern parables. \nDominique Jullien is Professor of French and Comparative Literature and author of Proust et ses modèles: les Mille et une nuits et les Mémoires de Saint-Simon (1989); Récits du Nouveau Monde. Les voyageurs français en Amérique de Chateaubriand à nos jours (1992); and Les Amoureux de Schéhérazade. Variations modernes sur les Mille et une nuits (2009). \nSponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:Critical Mass Talk: Ady Barkan: Love and Death\, Hope and Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Sitting in that hotel armchair\, I realized that my deadly disease was giving me newfound power at the very moment it was depriving me of so much strength. My voice was growing softer\, but I was being heard by more people than ever before. My legs were disintegrating\, but more and more people were following in my footsteps. Precisely because my days were numbered\, people drew inspiration from my decision to spend them in resistance. Precisely because I faced such obstacles\, my comrades were moved by my message that struggle is never futile. \nIn this talk\, the paralyzed political activist Ady Barkan will explore the existential questions that he has faced in the wake of his terminal diagnosis with ALS\, and that the American people have faced under the Trump administration: What kind of life will our children have\, and what kind of world will they inherit? Which injustices must we accept and which ones demand our resistance? How should we spend our precious time on this earth\, and how should we die? \nA reception will follow. Copies of Eyes to the Wind will be available for purchase and there will be a free book giveaway to the first 20 students to attend with ID. \nAdy Barkan is an organizer at the Center for Popular Democracy and the founder of the Be A Hero campaign.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: For He Gladdens the Earth: Consent and Conjugality in the Astral State
DESCRIPTION:Traditional discussions of gender in Hindu traditions often begin with a critique of patriarchy in orthodox Brahmanical Dharmaśāstras\, followed by a turn to potential feminist resources—for example\, in goddess worship\, Śākta traditions\, and Tantra. One effect of this line of thinking has been a relative absence within Hindu studies of reflections on gender in relation to state power\, a thematic hallmark of feminist postcolonial histories of South Asia. Geslani’s talk reframes the question of gender in premodern Hindu traditions by historicizing orthodox gender theories in relation to other contemporaneous interlocutors. He focuses on royal sexual politics as depicted in the astral sciences\, Jyotiḥśāstras\, which he argues are crucial texts for uncovering the ideology of the medieval state. When placed in relation to ritual and omenology\, an astral theory of conjugality reveals the uniquely gendered power of royal bodies to naturalize political consent. \nMarko Geslani is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at the University of South Carolina. He is the author of Rites of the God-King: Śānti and Ritual Change in Early Hinduism (Oxford University Press 2018). \nSponsored by the IHC South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group
