SUMMARY:The Pasha's New Clothes: The History Section of an 18th-Century Library from Acre - Lecture by Prof. Dana Sajdi (Boston College)
DESCRIPTION:This is an exploration of the history booklist found in a recently discovered ‘library catalogue’ from a college in 18th-century Acre. Endowed by the notorious Ottoman governor of the region Ahmad Pasha al-Jazzar (d. 1804)\, the library seems to have been one of the largest in the Ottoman Levant. In addition to introducing the larger ‘al-Jazzar Library Project’\, I will argue that the eclectic nature of the history collection exceeds the purposes of a college curriculum or the needs of local readers. Despite their variety\, the books were carefully chosen and cUrated to reflect the colorful career of the patron himself and to construct a heroic and royal image of him resembling that of imperial rulers. This is a vanity collection that the Pasha used to display his new clothes. \nThis event is organized by the King Abdul Aziz Ibn Saud Chair in Islamic Studies.

SUMMARY:Anthologizing the City of Isfahan: Family Archives and Urban Knowledge\, lecture by Professor Kathryn Babayan
DESCRIPTION:Seventeenth century Isfahan witnessed a craze in the composition of a new kind of book\, the majmuʿa\, or anthology. Curated and written in the domestic sphere of the household\, anthologies archive city-writings once in circulation; they illustrate the practices of urban knowledge and their valorization by communities who took possession of them. The imaginations that anthologizing generated\, and the choices behind the gathering\, excerpting\, recording\, and ordering of texts bound in a manuscript\, represent different techniques of interpreting the city: they reveal a place where\, among other things\, the refined self was crafted on paper and performed in public.Anthologizing the City of Isfahan Family Archives and Urban Knowledge (1)

SUMMARY:Amy Stanley\, "Finding Echigo in Edo: Snow Country Migrants and Their Urban Worlds"
DESCRIPTION:The Echigo province migrant was a familiar type in nineteenth-century Edo. Every year in the tenth month\, snow country peasants would come down the mountains on the Nakasendō Highway and enter the city through Itabashi Station. They wandered down the main street in Hongō\, where they were met by labor scouts who had learned to recognize their bewildered expressions and country accents. Many ended up in hitoyado\, the city’s notorious boarding houses for laborers\, where they were dispatched to rice polishers and bathhouses. Others found work in service with the help of migrants who had come before. Most went home eventually\, but others stayed on in the city – they became shop owners\, peddlers\, and even low-ranking samurai. This talk examines the lives of Echigo people in Tenpō-era Edo to illuminate the importance of regional connections and rural-urban migration in the development of Japan’s largest city. It also considers how documents kept in far-flung places (in this case Niigata Prefecture) can illuminate urban space. \n  \nAmy Stanley is an associate professor in the History Department at Northwestern University\, where she teaches early modern and modern Japanese and global history. She is also the author of Selling Women: Prostitution\, Households\, and the Market in Early Modern Japan (UC Press\, 2012) and “Maidservants’ Tales: Narrating Domestic and Global History in Eurasia\, 1500-1800” (AHR\, 2016)\, as well as articles in The Journal of Asian Studies and The Journal of Japanese Studies.
