SUMMARY:"En la frontera de los pijaos": the making of an Andean borderland (Santiago Muñoz\, Universidad de los Andes)
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the first meeting of the new Colloquium on Latin American and Caribbean History as we welcome Santiago Muñoz Arbeláez\, who will deliver a talk entitled “‘En la frontera de los pijaos’: the making of an Andean borderland in northern South America”. \nThe talk will be held in HSSB 4020 at 5 pm on Wednesday\, October 4th\, and will be followed by a small reception. \nAbstract: In the 1550s a coalition of native groups took arms against the Spanish empire in northern South America. The Pijao\, as the imperial officials called the rebels\, burnt cities\, looted royal paths\, and took captives. The officials of the empire classified the Pijao as caribes\, accused them of cannibalism\, and invoked theological arguments to justify their enslavement. From then on\, interaction between the empire and the Pijaos was marked by violence\, captivity\, and slavery. By 1610\, the president of the court of Santafé estimated that the Pijaos had destroyed fourteen cities and killed and eaten more than one hundred thousand indigenous allies. While the existing studies have depicted the Pijaos as pre-Hispanic warriors who survived due to their extreme cruelty\, the Pijao frontier formed and grew in tandem with the empire. Far from being a static group that preceded the Spanish\, the Pijao frontier was a novel political creation that grew as a reaction to Spanish conquest and its dynamics were intimately linked with those of the Spanish empire. This talk explores the birth\, growth\, and decline of an indigenous political project that emerged two decades after the conquest and expanded over the slopes of the northern Andes. \nAbout the Speaker: Santiago Muñoz Arbeláez is Assistant Professor of History at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá\, Colombia.

SUMMARY:Diocletian's Palace: Design and Construction
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Goran Nikšić is the City Archaeologist and Architect for City of Split in Croatia (Service for the Old City Core)\, and the Senior Lecturer on architectural conservation at the University of Split.  He holds his degrees from the University of Zagreb (Ph.D.)\, the University of York\, and the University of Belgrade.  His areas of specialization are architectural conservation and the history of architecture\, particularly Roman\, Medieval\, and Renaissance architecture.  From 2004 on he has served as an expert for ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites).  Dr. Nikšić is an AIA Norton Lecturer for 2017-2018. \nAbstract: Although Diocletian’s Palace in Split has been a topic of scientific interest for a long time\, there has been no full consensus about some of its basic elements\, from the typological definition to the original purpose of the building\, from the original appearance of the whole down to the reliable reconstruction of the architectural parts. Traditionally\, Diocletian’s Palace has been described as a unique combination of an imperial villa and a typical Roman military camp. Recent research has established the probable original purpose of the complex in Split as the imperial manufacture of textiles. It was later\, most likely already during the construction\, adapted for the residence of the retired Emperor. Detailed architectural analysis shows that the mistakes in the design and execution\, and the unfinished decoration can be explained by the change of architectural concept which occurred probably during the first phase of construction\, and by the very short deadline given to the builders by the Emperor who probably retired to his palace in Split earlier than originally planned. Finally\, a new interpretation is given of this complex building\, in terms of design and construction process.

SUMMARY:The Russian Revolution and the Trump Revolution by Prof. Toshi Hasegawa
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Sunday October 22 2017 to hear a talk by Prof. Toshi Hasegawa. The event will be at the Karpeles Manuscript Library\, 21 West Anapamu Street\, Santa Barbara. \n \nIn 1917\, the February Revolution overthrew the monarchy of Tsar Nicholas II in Russia and un-wittingly opened the door to Lenin and his allies who seized power in October. On Oct. 22\, 2017\, Professor Emeritus Tsuyoshi Hasegawa will speak about what the Russian Revolution can tell us about our situation now. He taught at UCSB from 1990 until his retirement in 2016\, and he is one of the leading historians of Soviet Russia in the world. His new book (cover above left) was published by the Harvard University Press this year\, and a second\, much expanded and revised edition of his book on The February Revolution\, Petrograd\, 1917 (1981) appears this month from Brill Publishers. Historian Robert H. McNeal (U. Mass\, Amherst)\, reviewing the first edition in the American Historical Review\, called it “the best work in any language on its subject and essential reading for any serious student of the Russian Revolution.” Hasegawa’s Racing the Enemy: Stalin\, Truman\, and the Surrender of Japan (Harvard UP\, 2005) won the 2005 Robert Ferrell Award from the Society for the Historians of American Foreign Relations as well as other major prizes in Japan and the U.S. Able to use sources in Japanese and Russian as well as English\, Hasegawa demonstrated that the decisive factor in the decision of the Japanese to surrender was not the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Rather\, the Soviet declaration of war against Japan raised the specter of a Russian conquest of Japan. The Japanese feared the Russian bear more than the American eagle. \nThis free event is co-sponsored by UCSB’s Center for Cold War Studies.
