DESCRIPTION:A Workshop at UC Santa Barbara\nKeynote Speaker\nDr. Alexandra Minna Stern\, Professor of American Culture\, Women’s Studies\, History\, and Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Michigan\, will provide they keynote talk on “Gender and Intimacy Across the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands.” Author of Eugenic Nation: Faults and Frontiers of Better Breeding in America\, 2d. ed. (UC Press\, 2015) and Telling Genes: The Story of Genetic Counseling in America (John Hopkins University Press\, 2012) as well as numerous articles on the history of public health in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands\, Professor Stern is a leading voice in unraveling the dynamics of gender\, sexuality\, race\, ethnicity\, disability\, social difference\, and reproductive politics in the United States and Latin America. \nImage at right. Photo credit: Jae C. Hong – Design: Ebers Garcia  \n\nAbout the Workshop\n\n\nIn recent years\, scholars from across a variety of disciplinary fields have initiated studies exploring gender and intimacy across the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. Some of the most exciting and innovating work has begun to examine how notions of gender as well as masculinity and femininity shape emotional and personal relations with partners\, spouses\, children\, and extended family members and how those relationships\, in turn\, impact their experiences with migration\, community formation\, and their interactions with the state\, among other topics. \nBuilding on this rich emerging literature\, we solicit proposals for papers that explore deeply and widely themes of gender and intimacy as well as sexuality and identity in/on and across the U.S.-Mexico borderlands. We define gender and intimacy broadly. While we consider gender as the social and cultural roles assigned to biological males and females that construct them as a multiplicity of feminine and masculine subjects\, we treat intimacy as an emotional and personal expression of love and desire as well as affection between two or more people that is performed or enacted across a variety of spaces\, places\, and relationships\, including marriage\, courtship\, and the family as well as in homosocial relations and contexts. We also treat the U.S.-Mexico borderlands loosely\, regarding it as a region of diverse social\, political\, economic\, and cultural interactions\, inconsistencies\, contradictions\, conflicts\, and violence\, that is bisected by an international boundary separating and joining peoples of different genders\, races\, ethnicities\, classes\, and sexual orientations. \nTopics of Interest Include \n\nCourtship\, marriage\, and migration in the borderlands\nGender\, race\, and ethnicity in the borderlands\nFamily and community formation in the borderlands\nSexuality and intimacy in the borderlands\nSexual violence in the borderlands\nState power and practices regulating gender and intimacy in the borderlands\nMasculinity and manhood in the borderlands\nQueer bodies in the borderlands\nQueer and transgender activists and activism in the borderlands\n\nGoals of the Workshop\nOur goals are to bring together scholars of all ranks (including graduate students) who are willing to share their work\, provide constructive feedback to fellow presenters\, and publish their papers. After the workshop\, we plan to invite all participants to submit revised papers for consideration in a Special Issue of the Pacific Historical Review\, pending peer and editorial review. Note: The editor of the journal will attend the workshop to see the work in progress. \nLogistics of the Workshop & Keynote Speaker\nAll selected workshop participants will receive complimentary accommodations for one night near the UCSB campus. Transportation between the accommodations and the UCSB campus will also be provided. Dinner the evening before the event as well as a continental breakfast and lunch the day of the event are also included. Transportation costs to UCSB from home institutions are not included. \n\nSchedule\n\n\nSCHEDULE\nSeptember 30\, 2016\n\n5:00-5:15 pm: Welcome & Introduction\, Sharon Farmer\, Chair & Professor\, History\n5:15-6:00 pm: Keynote Speaker\, Dr. Alexandra M.

SUMMARY:UCSB's History Associates "Much Ado about Nothing" Sponsored Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Please join UCSB’s History Associates at 12pm on October 2 in HSSB 4020 (the History Department’s Conference Room) for lunch and a talk by Irwin Appel\, Professor of Theater and Director of the BFA Actor Training Program at UCSB. We will then proceed to the nearby Studio Theater for the 2pm performance of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing (directed by Professor Appel). This timeless story of two of literature’s all-time greatest lovers\, Beatrice and Benedick\, features some of the wittiest banter in all of Shakespeare. Last year\, Appel created and directed an adaptation of Shakespeare’s history plays titled The Death of Kings that was described by The Santa Barbara Independent as \nsomething tremendous . . . Come\, Appel invites the audience\, let us sit and tell sad stories about the death of kings. Appel’s work\, clearly a labor of passion\, is a brilliant version of Shakespeare’s history of England; one that reminds us why Shakespeare is\, to this day\, still lauded as one of the greatest theatrical storytellers of the age. \nFor more on Professor Appel and this production of Much Ado About Nothing\, see https://secure.lsit.ucsb.edu/dram/d7/news/event/482 \nTo view the flyer for this History Associates-sponsored event\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Outlaws and Scofflaws: Pirates and the Making of the Mediterranean - Judith Tucker (Georgetown University)
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 10th\, 5:00 pm\nIHC McCune Conference Room (HSSB 6020) \nHow did the Mediterranean emerge as a coherent and recognizable place in the early modern period? By looking to the semi-licit world of piracy and to the development of its laws and practices in particular\, we can trace a convergence of understandings and agreements across Mediterranean space. Ironically enough\, these outlaws and scofflaws of the time played major roles in forging the critical connections that drew the shores of the Mediterranean closer in a time of turmoil on the seas. Should we give pirates significant credit for the making of the modern Mediterranean? \nJudith E. Tucker (PhD\, History and Middle Eastern Studies\, Harvard University\, 1981) is Professor of History at Georgetown University and former Editor of the International Journal of Middle East Studies (2004-2009). She is the author of many publications on the history of women and gender in the Arab world\, including Women in 19th Century Egypt (Cambridge University Press\, 1985)\, In the House of the Law: Gender and Islamic Law in Ottoman Syria and Palestine (California University Press\, 1998)\, Women\, Family\, and Gender in Islamic Law (Cambridge University Press\, 2008)\, and co-author of Women in the Middle East and North Africa: Restoring Women to History (Indiana University Press\, 1999). She has authored numerous articles for professional journals\, edited volumes\, and encyclopedias. Her research interests focus on the Arab world in the Ottoman period\, women and gender in Middle East history\, Islamic law\, women\, and gender\, and most recently the Arab World\, the Mediterranean\, and global connections in the eighteenth century.

SUMMARY:"Catastrophic Thinking: Extinction and the Value of Diversity\," a talk by David Sepkoski
DESCRIPTION:Why do we care about preserving biodiversity? At the beginning of the 21st century biodiversity has come to be seen as fragile and tenuous\, constantly endangered by the threat of loss. Extinction plays a central role in this understanding of biodiversity. Whereas most historians who have examined this phenomenon have placed the modern biodiversity movement in the context of a history of conservation biology and endangered species protection\, I want to frame it in a new perspective. This talk will examine the influence of biological theories about the nature and dynamics of extinction—and especially mass extinction—on the current valuation of biological diversity. I will focus particularly on the ways that new understandings of extinction in the past—for example\, the extinction of the dinosaurs—have converged with scientific and cultural anxieties about the present—the specters of global warming\, nuclear war\, and biodiversity loss. I will argue that this new model of extinction has played a prominent conceptual and rhetorical role in debates surrounding the current biodiversity crisis\, which I will examine in critical historical perspective. \nDavid Sepkoski is Senior Research Scholar at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin \nSepkoski_flyer2

SUMMARY:Suez at Sixty: Remembering the Suez Crisis and War of 1956
DESCRIPTION:This fall marks the 60th anniversary of the Suez War of 1956\, a pivotal moment in Egyptian\, Middle Eastern\, and international history. In response to Egypt’s nationalization of the Suez Canal Company\, Britain\, France\, and Israel launched a coordinated military assault against Egypt. The United States\, the Soviet Union\, and much of the international community strongly opposed this move\, eventually compelling the aggressors to withdraw their forces from Egypt. These events signaled a new complexity in the Cold War and hastened the decline of British and French empire in the Arab world\, permitting the United States and the Soviet Union to increase their own involvement in the region while also accelerating the broader decolonization movement. \nSmoke rises from oil tanks beside the Suez Canal; November 1956\nTo bring out these areas of significance and connection\, members of the UCSB community will host a two-day program of events: \nOn THURSDAY\, OCTOBER 20\, at 7:30 PM in HSSB 6020\, we will screen the BBC documentary film “The Other Side of Suez\,” a riveting reconstruction of the Suez Crisis and War that brings out the perspectives of numerous international actors: Egypt\, Israel\, Britain\, France\, the United States\, the Soviet Union\, and other nations. Following the documentary\, which runs for one hour\, Professor Joel Gordon of the University of Arkansas will lead a discussion of the issues raised by the film. \nOn FRIDAY\, OCTOBER 21\, from 1:30 to 5:30 PM in the UNIVERSITY CENTER HARBOR ROOM\, we will host a series of insightful academic talks by a diverse array of scholars\, from UCSB and elsewhere\, each focusing on a different aspect of the Suez Crisis and its legacy. The speakers include: \n\nJennifer Derr\, Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\nMuriam Haleh Davis\, Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\nJoel Gordon\, Professor of History and Director of the King Fahd Center at the University of Arkansas\nDwight Reynolds\, Professor of Religious Studies\, UCSB\nSherene Seikaly\, Associate Professor of History\, UCSB\nSalim Yaqub\, Professor of History\, UCSB\n\nA more detailed schedule of the Friday talks is available here \nBoth events are free and open to the public. Delicious refreshments\, also free of charge\, will be served.

SUMMARY:"Diplomacy as a Means of Political Survival: The Cities and Duchies of the Northern Holy Roman Empire in relation to France\, 1650–1730\," a talk by Indravati Félicité
DESCRIPTION:“Diplomacy as a Means of Political Survival: The Cities and Duchies of the Northern Holy Roman Empire in relation to France\, 1650–1730” \nTalk by Indravati Félicité\, Maîtresse de conférences\, Université Paris-Diderot (Paris VII)\nOctober 27 @ 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm in HSSB 4020 \nIndravati Félicité is the author of Négocier pour exister. Les villes et duchés du nord de l’Empire face à la France 1650–1730 (Berlin : Walter de Gruyter\, 2016). This talk analyzes France’s impact on the politics of the Hanseatic cities of Lübeck\, Bremen\, and Hamburg and the duchies of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp and Mecklenburg-Schwerin at the time of King Louis XIV. This was a period of change in the constitutional premises of the Holy Roman Empire. For these German “states” as well as for the diplomats and statesmen involved in these relations\, negotiation and diplomacy became a matter of life and death\, essential for safeguarding the existence of their governments. The place held by the diplomats in this process underlines the importance of their networks and reveals their contribution to the genesis of the early modern State.

SUMMARY:Prof. Cavan Concannon (USC): "An Assemblage Approach to Early Christianity\, Deleuze\, Latour\, and the Letters of Dionysios of Corinth"
DESCRIPTION:Modern historians map the diversity of early Christianity in a variety of ways\, from declines into heresy to competition among “varieties” of early Christianities. Drawing particularly on the philosophical work of Gilles Deleuze and Bruno Latour\, Concannon argues that  we might better map the remains of second-century Christianity by focusing on networks of people\, ideas\, and letters that moved along broader patterns of trade and communication in the eastern Mediterranean. Focusing on the costs\, velocities\, and viscosities of movement and commerce\, he examines the network associated with Dionysios of Corinth\, whose writings come to us only as fragments and summaries in Eusebius’ Ecclesiastical History. Concannon shows how non-human actants such as geography\, economic activity\, and trade routes shape the interactions within Dionysios’ network\, allowing us to think more broadly about second-century Christianity as a series of emergent networks that form\, coalesce\, and dissolve in the flow of movement and connectivity that characterized the Roman Mediterranean.
