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).

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
