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.
