SUMMARY:"Censorship\, Politics\, and the Making of a Literary Classic"\, a talk by Carlos Aguirre at the Colloquium on Latin American and Caribbean History
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the next meeting of the History Department’s Colloquium on Latin American and Caribbean History as we welcome Prof. Carlos Aguirre (University of Oregon)\, who will be presenting a paper entitled “Censorship\, Politics\, and the Making of a Literary Classic: The Biography of Vargas Llosa’s La ciudad y los perros“. \nThe talk will be held at 5pm on Friday\, October 5th in HSSB 4020\, and will be followed by a small reception. \nThis event is supported by the Department of Spanish and Portuguese\, the History Department Colloquium Committee\, the Latin American and Iberian Studies Program\, and the Program in Comparative Literature. \nAbstract\nMario Vargas Llosa’s first novel\, La ciudad y los perros (Barcelona\, 1963)\, marked the beginning of the author’s outstanding literary career but also\, according to many\, of the “Latin American boom\,” a literary\, political\, and publishing phenomenon that changed the landscape of Latin American and world literature. A novel about a group of adolescents in a military school in Lima that was widely read as a critique of Peruvian militaristic\, machista\, and authoritarian culture\, it became an almost instant classic but was also involved in a series of literary and political controversies. Exploring the role of literary and friendship networks\, the Spanish publishing industry\, the negotiations with Franco’s censorship office\, the scandals that surrounded its reception\, and the political climate of the time\, this talk will reconstruct the process by which the manuscript of a novel written by an almost unknown author became a powerful literary\, cultural\, and political artifact. \nAbout the speaker\nCarlos Aguirre is Professor of History at the University of Oregon and the author or editor of several books on slavery and abolition\, crime and punishment\, intellectuals\, and the history of Lima. His most recent publications include The Peculiar Revolution. Rethinking the Peruvian Experiment under Military Rule\, co-edited with Paulo Drinot (2017) and Bibliotecas y Cultura Letrada en América Latina. Siglos XIX y XX\, co-edited with Ricardo Salvatore (2018). For more information on professor Aguirre’s works\, check https://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~caguirre/home.html \nWe hope to see many of you there!

SUMMARY:The Topography of Citizenship
DESCRIPTION:October 11 (Thursday) 3 pm\, HSSB 4080 : Simon Goldhill (University of Cambridge)\, The Topography of Citizenship (co-sponsored by Critical Issues: Changing Faces of US Citizenship). \nCitizenship is most often discussed as a question of legal status within a framework of rights and occasionally duties. Goldhill will be looking at the physical infrastructure of citizenship and how this is changing. How are cities constructed to create different sites of engagement for\ncitizenship and different forms of exclusion? What sort of cities do we wish to make to create civic life? The focus will be on the modern city\, but with an instructive comparison with past models\, physical and theoretical.

SUMMARY:Talk by Dr. Charles Delgadillo: "Crusading for Democracy: William Allen White's Liberal Republican Internationalism"
DESCRIPTION:Delgadillo flyer \nThe question of America’s role in the world has been fiercely contested for more than a century in the Republican Party. The “isolationists” have argued that American interests were better served by remaining free of foreign entanglements\, while the “internationalists” have countered that American peace and prosperity demanded that it play a role in shaping the international order. It is only in recent days\, under the leadership of Donald Trump\, that Republican isolationists have prevailed over their internationalist opponents in the party. \nCharles Delgadillo traces William Allen White’s (1868-1944) trajectory as one of the founding fathers of liberal Republican internationalism.  White achieved national fame with his conservative Emporia Gazette editorial “What’s the Matter with Kansas?” but he quickly evolved into a progressive Republican and later into a New Deal liberal. White fought for an active American role in the world\, from his early explorations with the global progressive movement during the 1900s to his efforts to generate public support for the Allies during World War II. The final battle of White’s life was fought to cement the supremacy of internationalism over isolationism in the Republican Party.  White’s role in advancing liberal Republican internationalism\, his perception of the isolationist threat\, and his colorful life make him a fascinating case study in the age of “America First.” \nThe event is sponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History and cosponsored by the Department of History. \nCharles Delgadillo is an Instructor in History at the California State Polytechnic University\, Pomona. He earned his PhD in History at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, in 2010\, and his dissertation examined a cohort of four liberals who grappled with America’s rise as a world power between the World Wars. The work yielded two journal articles and Crusader for Democracy: The Political Life of William Allen White\, which is Delgadillo’s first book. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Talk by Professor Ula Taylor\, UC Berkeley: "The Promise of Patriarchy: Women and the Nation of Islam"
DESCRIPTION:The partiarchal structure of the Nation of Islam (NOI) promised black women the prospect of finding a provider and a protector among the organization’s men\, who were fiercely committed dto these masculine roles. Black women’s experience in the NOI\, however\, has largely remained on the periphery of scholarship. In her presentation\, Ula Taylor documents their struggle to escape the devaluation of black womanhood while also clinging to the empowering promises of patriarchy. Taylor shows how\, despite being relegated to a lifestyle that did not encourage working outside of the home\, NOI women found freedom in being able to bypass the degrading experiences connected to labor performed largely by working-class black women and in raising and educating their children in racially affirming environments. \nCo-sponsored by the College of Letters and Sciences; the MultiCultural Center; the Department of History; Hull Chair in Feminist Studies; and Black Studies

SUMMARY:Film screening: "1968: The Year that Shaped a Generation"
DESCRIPTION:1968 Poster1968 was a pivotal year in U.S. and global history. In the United States\, students protested the Vietnam War. In France\, they protested university conditions and sparked worker strikes across the country. In Mexico City\, they protested state violence. This was also the year when the peaceful protest known as the “Prague Spring” flourished in Czechoslovakia\, when Martin Luther King planned a Poor People’s March on Washington\, and when Robert Kennedy ran for president. But the backlash against all of these stirrings was fierce. King and Kennedy were gunned down. Soviet tanks crushed the Prague Spring. Disarray in the American peace movement allowed Richard Nixon to become president. This documentary combines riveting archival footage and insightful interviews—with Jesse Jackson\, Barbara Ehrenreich\, Carlos Fuentes\, Pat Buchanan and others—to recreate an extraordinary year. The emerging picture is one of turmoil and anguish but also one of hope. The Vietnam protests ultimately led to a winding down of the war. The French uprising spurred university reforms in that country. The Prague Spring\, though ground down in 1968\, planted the seeds of Czechoslovakia’s Velvet Revolution of 1989. After the screening of the film\, Professor Salim Yaqub will make a brief presentation and lead a discussion. \nSponsored by the IHC and the Center for Cold War Studies and International History

SUMMARY:Talk by Professor Bonnie Honig\, Brown University: "Postures of Refusal"
DESCRIPTION:Postures of Refusal: From Antigone to Kaepernick\n\n\n\n\nHow do the postures of our bodies communicate citizens’ dissidence or conformity\, non-compliance or care? When Kaepernick kneels\, Black Lives Matter lie down in the streets\, soldiers stand at attention\, and we all speak of moral fortitude as having a spine or showing spine\, are these mere dramatizations and harmless metaphors? Or might they tell us something about the gendering of moral conscience? This talk will look at the significance of posture of obedience and disobedience in a variety of texts\, from Sophocles’ Antigone” to Euripides’  “Bacchae\,” from speeches/interviews by Muhammad Ali to photographs of Colin Kaepernick.\n\n\nBonnie Honig is Nancy Duke Lewis Professor in the departments of Modern Culture and Media (MCM) and Political Science at Brown University. She is author of Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics (Cornell\, 1993)\, Democracy and the Foreigner (Princeton\, 2001)\, Emergency Politics: Paradox\, Law\, Democracy (Princeton\, 2009)\, Antigone\, Interrupted (Cambridge University Press\, 2013)\, and Public Things: Democracy in Disrepair\, (Fordham University Press\, 2017). She has edited or co-edited: Feminist Interpretations of Hannah Arendt (Penn State\, 1995)\, Skepticism\, Individuality and Freedom: The Reluctant Liberalism of Richard Flathman (Minnesota\, 2002) the Oxford Handbook of Political Thought (Oxford\, 2006) and\, most recently\, Politics\, Theory\, and Film: Critical Encounters with Lars von Trier (Oxford\, 2016). She is currently at work on a new project called Theaters of Refusal\, to be delivered as the Flexner lectures at Bryn Mawr College in the fall of 2017 and to be published by Harvard University Press. In 2017-18 she is serving as the Inaugural Cranor Phi Beta Kappa Scholar.

SUMMARY:UCSB History Associates Lecture: "Pious Postmortems: Anatomy and the Making of Saints"\, Professor Brad Bouley
DESCRIPTION:During the Reformation\, the Catholic Church suffered a crisis in one of its oldest and most powerful institutions: belief in the saints. To support the veneration of these individuals\, canonization officials turned\, it would seem paradoxically\, to medical science. Canon lawyers and physicians thought that medicine could be used to prove miracles. The category of supernatural was\, however\, a tricky one and so canon lawyers\, theologians\, and doctors developed a range of techniques to establish the bounds of nature. This talk examines the means used to determine the existence of the supernatural in human bodies. Surprisingly\, the tools employed in the search for the holy mirror and presage many of the techniques later used by experimental scientists to establish the factuality of unusual observations. \nThe speaker\, Brad Bouley\, completed his PhD at Stanford in 2012 and taught at Penn Sate until he joined the UCSB History department in 2017. His specialty is Italian history from the 16th through the 18th centuries. Bouley studies the intersections of religious history\, the history of science\, and the history of food and urban provisioning. His first monograph\, Pious Postmortems: Anatomy\, Sanctity and the Catholic Church in Early Modern Europe\, was published last year. \nPlease RSVP using this flier

SUMMARY:Talk by Stuart McManus\, Chinese University of Hong Kong: "Agency\, Intersectionality\, and the Classical Tradition in the Early Modern Hispanic World
DESCRIPTION:How did Mediterranean culture shape life in the multiethnic global empires of Spain and Portugal? To answer this question\, this talk will explore the role of the classical tradition in structuring and disseminating early modern Hispanic discourses on empire\, slavery\, and Christian missions with a particular focus on the ways ancient literary forms and civic practices (from the epigram to Ciceronian public speaking) were then appropriated by ethnically Iberian\, indigenous\, and African students of antiquity to carve out a place for themselves within this hierarchical global space. By taking a global and intersectional approach to classical reception studies\, this talk makes the case that the global impact of Greece and Rome cannot be understood without reference to historically-specific constructions of race\, gender\,  and class.

SUMMARY:Talk by Sigrid Schmalzer\, University of Massachusetts\, Amherst: "The Layered Landscapes of Hebei and Guangxi: Mao-era History and the COnstruction of China's Agricultural Heritage"
DESCRIPTION:Chinese scientists\, scholars\, and state officials are actively engaged in a transnational movement to preserve “agricultural heritage.” But what is agricultural heritage and how does it relate to a “people’s history” of agriculture? This talk will focus on two sites where the PRC state is actively seeking to promote and preserve agricultural heritage. Both sites are famed for their spectacular agricultural terraces: one lies in the northern province of Hebei and the other in the southern province of Guangxi. Despite ethnic\, cultural\, and environmental differences\, the two sites share some important historical experiences. In both places\, people identify terracing as a form of survivial for their migrant ancestors in a new land. More recently\, the two sites underwent a powerful\, transformative Mao-era history that matters deeply to local people but is in danger or erasure or cooption today in the ahnds of an eco-authoritarian state. The speaker will explore these two cases to demonstrate the need for a critical historical approach: she will urge scholars to recognize the significance of the Mao era in the construction of both agricultural knowledge and the agricultural heritage paradigm\, while resisting efforts to coopt that history in the service of state power. \nSigrid Schmalzer is Professor of History at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. Her first book\, The People’s Peking Man: Popular Science and Human Identity in Twentieth-Century China\, was published by the University of Chicago Press in 2008 and won the Sharlin Memorial Award from the Social Science History Association. Her second book\, Red Revolution\, Green Revolution: Scientific Farming in Socialist China (Chicago\, 2016) won the Joseph Levenson Prize form the Association for Asian Studies.

SUMMARY:"Agrarian Quests: The Search for Comunidades and Campesinos in Rural Peru\,”  a lecture by Javier Puente
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nThe history of twentieth-century Peru is the history of the rural countryside\, its governance\, and the making of comunidadesand campesinosas foundational elements of a social\, economic\, and political landscape. Throughout a number of decades\, domestic state powers and transnational capital turned lands and pastures into battlegrounds of ideas about labor\, property\, and modernization at large. In turn\, clashing visions of power placed comunidadesand campesinosat the center of their responses to enduring uncertainties and anxieties on the economic exploitation and sociopolitical control of the country. Hacendados\, engineers\, intellectuals\, corporations\, political parties\, the military\, among others\, contended and disputed the meaning of being a comunidadand a campesino. Ultimately\, a civil war brought the search to a violent end\, revealing the extent\, limitations\, and failures of the rural making of a nation-state. \nAbout  \nJAVIER PUENTE holds a Ph.D. from Georgetown University and currently serves as assistant professor of Andean history at the Instituto de Historia of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. \nThis lecture s presented as part of the LAIS 200 graduate seminar. It is free and open to the campus community. A small reception follows the talk. Students interested in discussing further Dr. Puente’s work after the reception are encouraged to contact the LAIS Program Director at mendez@lais.ucsb.edu to get the reading materials. \n*LAIS thanks the generous co-sponsorship of the Departments of History\, Global Studies\, and the Global Environmental Justice Project to this event. \n

SUMMARY:Film showing: "In the Shadow of the Moon"
DESCRIPTION:2019 marks the 50th anniversary of NASA’s Apollo program. The mission’s crewed flights began in 1968 with the first lunar circumnavigation; on July 20\, 1969 Neil Armstrong became the first human to step foot on another planet. By the end of 1972 Apollo’s funding was cut and NASA’s moon explorations were over. From 1969 to 1972 there were eight crewed missions and 12 astronauts walked on the surface of the moon\, exploring and doing scientific work “for the benefit of all mankind.” This award-winning documentary explores remastered archival footage and the recollections and commentary of almost every astronaut alive in 2007 regarding their participation in the Apollo program. Note the determination and awe that echoes through the memories of these unique Americans.  Learn what they thought about the tumultuous decade of the 1960s and how their accomplishment seemed to bring the world together\, ever so briefly. Hear what they say about humans going back to the moon and beyond\, a feat that is once again on NASA’s radar. The film will be introduced by 2018/2019 Center for Cold War Studies Fellow\, Christina Roberts\, a PhD student in the History of Science program at UCSB. Light refreshments served.In the Shadow of the Moon-flyer

SUMMARY:Heavenly Hermaphrodites\, a Lecture by Leah DeVun
DESCRIPTION:DeVun Flier \nThis lecture examines how certain ancient and medieval thinkers claimed that “hermaphroditism” was the original condition of humanity\, created by God and documented in the first chapters of Genesis. The idea that Adam was a hermaphrodite fueled medieval debates about sex and gender\, as well as about human nature. In the modern world\, objections to transgender and gender-nonconforming people often cite the bible\, which is viewed as describing the division of humans into two distinct sexes. Historians and other scholars\, I argue\, should consider more carefully how Christian ideas about the sexed body emerged and developed – such histories have the power to disrupt our certainty about which sexes and genders are legitimate\, natural\, and deserving of human dignity. \nLeah DeVun is an Associate Professor of History at Rutgers University. She is the author of Prophecy\, Alchemy\, and the End of Time (Columbia) and co-editor of Trans*Historicities (Duke)\, as well as articles in GLQ\, WSQ\, Osiris\, postmedieval\, Journal of the History of Ideas\, and Radical History Review. Her current research interests lie in the history of science and the history of gender\, sex\, and sexuality in medieval and early modern Europe.

SUMMARY:Book Launch and Signing by David Treuer\, University of Southern California: The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee: Native America From 1890 to the Present
DESCRIPTION:Almost from the moment it occurred\, the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota was cast in the popular imagination as a point of no return\, at which not only did hundreds of Lakota men\, women and children perish but so\, in a sense\, did Native American life itself. Now David Treuer–the critically acclaimed writer\, anthropologist\, and journalist\, himself Ojibwe from Leech Lake Reservation in northern Minnesota–brings to that mythology its long-overdue reckoning. In The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee\, Treuer traces the rich\, resilient and multi-dimensional story that Native people have been living over the past century\, and adds new chapters to the story of American Indian creativity and resilience in our modern times. \nProfessor Treuer will be signing books at the event.

SUMMARY:Edgardo Pérez\, USC: "Slavery\, irreverence\, and sovereignty in the revolutionary Caribbean"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the next meeting of the Colloquium on Latin American and Caribbean History as we welcome Edgardo Pérez\, who will deliver a talk entitled “Slavery\, irreverence\, and sovereignty in the revolutionary Caribbean”. \nThe talk will be held in HSSB 4020 at 5 pm on Wednesday\, February 6th\, and will be followed by a small reception. \nAbstract: Cartagena de Indias\, on the north coast of today’s Colombia\, declared independence from Spain and extended citizenship to free men of color between 1812 and 1815. Hundreds of Afro-Caribbean sailors flocked to this port town\, where they obtained nominal citizenship and jobs as privateers—pirates with a license to attack Spanish shipping out at sea. Because Cartagena leaders saw their privateering policy as an “act of sovereignty\,” this talk asks how exactly common sailors—the main protagonists of this story—embodied political sovereignty at sea and on land. Cartagena’s privateers throw into relief the history of sovereignty as practice; these maritime workers used irreverent talk\, ambivalent political belonging\, and dynamic connections with the Republic of Haiti to build the first Spanish American experiment in maritime republicanism. This untold story may thus reveal the origins of multi-ethnic\, plurilingual and border-crossing citizenship. \nAbout the Speaker: Edgardo Pérez Morales is Assistant Professor of History at the University of Southern California.
