SUMMARY:Drawing Twentieth-Century History: The World in Flames\, a talk by Fernando Bryce  Copy
DESCRIPTION:Fernando Bryce’s upcoming public lecture\, “Drawing Twentieth-Century History: The World in Flames” to take place Friday\, April 7th in HSSB 4020 starting at 3 pm\, is part of the yearlong new interdisciplinary graduate workshop “Theoretical Perspectives on War\, Political Violence\, Nationalism and the State” (History 291) in the History Department.  After the formal talk (3:00-4:30) and a coffee break\, Bryce will stay for one more hour further to discuss his work with students registered in the workshop and any other interested students and faculty. The following paper is available for discussion: Natalia Majluf\, “Seeing History” (Fernando Bryce. Lima: Museo de Arte de Lima\, 2011). For further reading see Rodrigo Quijano\, “Present Allusion”. Fernando Bryce. Barcelona: Fundació Antoni Tàpies\, 2005\, or Jiménez Fernando Bryce\, The Untimely Copyist\, Jiménez in Artnexus 2010 \nSince the goal of History 291 is to tackle the problems of war and political violence\, including colonialism and empire from a multiplicity of disciplinary angles\, I have taken the somehow experimental step of inviting an internationally renowned artist whose remarkable visual work addresses precisely those concerns. Historians\, as Michel-Trouillout pointed out\, are not the only ones to provide historical narratives. Or\, as Natalia Mafluf\, Director of the Museum of Art of Lima\, eloquently wrote: \n“Bryce focuses on the grand narratives\, on the century’s historical events and decisive processes: the conquests of European imperialism\, the great wars\, the revolutions and ideological debates of the Cold War –that is\, the development of the international ideologies of communism and capitalism shaping the political struggles of the twentieth century. Bryce’s project is thus aligned with certain recurrent themes of critical studies related to culture\, images\, politics\, politics and the formation of subjectivities in the public sphere. At the same time\, his series distance themselves from the practice of academics and professional historians\, who usually focus on particular problematics or on the study of complex social processes by way of narrative argumentation. His drawings nevertheless provide a different approach to historical facts; one might say that what the academic discipline of history basically focuses on explaining\, is what Bryce proposes instead to show. In other words\, what he discovered\, very simply\, was a method that allows us to see history”. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the History Department\, the Departments of Film and Media Studies\, Spanish and Portuguese\, History of Art and Architecture\, the Program in Latin American and Iberian Studies\, and the Office of the Associate Vice-chancellor on Diversity\, Equity and Academic Policy. \nFor more information about Fernando Bryce\, please scroll down. For inquiries please write  Prof. Cecilia Méndez at mendez@history.ucsb.edu \n\nFERNANDO BRYCE (b. 1965 Lima) attended university in both Lima and Paris and lived for many years in Berlin. Currently\, he lives and works in Lima and New York.  His ink on paper drawings systematically re-examine the ways historical events are represented in printed media. The process\, which Bryce describes as ‘mimetic analysis’ involves culling archives for print materials like advertisements\, newspaper articles\, and propaganda pamphlets in order to faithfully reproduce a selection of these materials\, creating his own ink-on-paper “reconstructions.” \nIn May 2011\, Bryce had his first one-person exhibition in North America at Alexander and Bonin\, El Mundo en Llamas [The World in Flames] in which the expansive sets of drawings El Mundo en Llamas and Das Reich / Aufbau were shown. Drawing Modern History\,  a survey exhibition of his work\, was on view in 2011 at the Museo de Arte de Lima (MALI) and traveled to Museo Universitario de Arte Contemporaneo (MUAC)\, Mexico City and Malba-Colección Costantini\, Buenos Aires. His work was included in “Manifesta 4\,”Frankfurt (2002); “8th International Istanbul Biennial\,” (2003); “26th Biennial of SãoPaulo” (2004); “54th Carnegie International\,” Pittsburgh (2005); “T1 – The Pantagruel Syndrome\,” Castello di Rivoli\, Turin (2006); “The 11th Biennale de Lyon\,” (2011) ; “The 1st International Biennial of Contemporary Art”\, Cartagena de Indias (2014). \n* * * \nFERNANDO BRYCE: “DRAWING MODERN HISTORY” \nOver the past decade Fernando Bryce (Lima\, 1965) has produced a vast corpus of drawings that forge new forms of representation of historical memory. His method\, which he early defined with a dose of humor as “mimetic analysis”\, is based on the careful copy of official documents\, press images\, political propaganda and advertisements so as to form large series of ink drawings that focus on power relations and their mediatization in twentieth-century history. Through the basic play of re-presentation (in the most literal sense of showing again)\, by copying or the simple mise en scène of documents and objects\, Bryce uses appropriation\, parody and irony as weapons to expose the prejudices underlying commonly accepted official discourses. \nThis exhibition\, jointly presented by Fundación Telefónica\, the Museo de Arte de Lima and the City of Lima\, brings together for the first time the greater part of the artist’s most ambitious series. A significant group of Bryce’s early work is shown at Fundación Telefónica. In these drawings and paintings made between Berlin and Lima in the second half of the 1990s\, the artist explores diverse approaches to the representation of the local context and its history through images drawn from the mass media. The large series of drawings presented at the Museo de Arte de Lima reveal the way in which Bryce’s project gradually acquires a programmatic character and assumes an almost encyclopedic ambition. At the turn of the millennium\, his work opens up\, as in concentric circles\, to encompass other regions and other chapters in twentieth-century history. He centers on the printed matter of ideology to cover war and revolution\, colonial exploits\, imperial domination and art programs\, as officially portrayed in their own graphic language. Through his drawings\, Bryce literally recovers the figuration of ideology. His project engages the images of the modern world\, fixed selectively to forge a genealogy of the present. \nTatiana Cuevas and Natalia Majluf\, curators (2011) \n* * * \nFROM THE NEW YORK TIMES \nThe wars and conflicts of the 20th century yielded entities like Unesco\, a United Nations agency dedicated to encouraging international peace and\, according to its website\, “universal respect for human rights.” In his current show\, the Peruvian-born artist Fernando Bryce reproduces images and text printed in Unesco’s Courier magazine between 1948 and 1954\, as well as other publications devoted to promoting new aesthetic or cultural ideas.\nThe largest work includes 81 ink-on-paper drawings — what Mr. Bryce calls “reconstructions” — made from the Unesco Courier. Among the selections here\, writers argue against racism\, call for better access to education and ask how art and technology might aid peace and unity. On the opposite wall are 31 ink-on-paper reconstructions of advertisements for gallery exhibitions published from 1944 to 1947 in ARTnews\, the reigning English-language contemporary art magazine of that period. In the rear gallery are 28 silk-screen prints with reproductions of images from Parisian and Latin American art magazines.\nCulled from museum and library archives\, Mr. Bryce’s project hints at the complications between originals and the copies. After all\, art during the midcentury was often experienced — particularly by people outside urban centers — through black-and-white reproductions in magazines. The rise of abstraction as an international language in art is another concern raised by this show\, since it was seen as having the ability to erase cultural differences. The gallery’s walls are filled with grand and wonderful ideas: foundations for a new and better world. The sobering fact is how familiar these problems of yesterday feel today. \nSource: \nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/18/arts/design/fernando-bryce-explores-midcentury-cultural-ideas.html?_r=0 \nFor more on Fernando Bryce: \n\nhttp://db-artmag.com/en/78/feature/the-artist-and-the-propaganda-machine-how-fernando-bryce-retells/\nhttp://www.alexanderandbonin.com/sites/default/files/jimenez_artnexus_2010.pdf

SUMMARY:"'A Toda Madre (ATM)': Migrant Dreams and Nightmares in El Norte"
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Miroslava Chávez-García\, Professor\, Department of History\, UCSB \nRelying on dozens of personal letters exchanged among Mexican male migrants across the U.S.-Mexico borderlands in the 1960s\, this talk by Miroslava Chávez-García (UCSB Department of History) probes migrants’ longing for economic opportunity\, masculine affirmation\, and emotional fulfillment. As the migrants’ correspondence illustrates\, they relied on each other and the broader social networks to achieve lawful migration\, employment\, housing and transportation\, and familiar forms of entertainment and companionship\, easing their transition to the new environment and allowing them to bridge the best of both worlds. Offered as part of UCSB Reads 2017.

SUMMARY:Honoring a Chicana Activist Dignity Warrior: The Life and Work of Alicia Escalante
DESCRIPTION:A reception honoring Alicia Escalante\, life-long community activist. \n\nPlease join us in recognizing the life-long activism of Alicia Escalante\, the founder of the East Los Angeles Welfare Rights Organization (ELAWRO)\, who recently donated her papers to the California Ethnic and Multicultural Archives at the UCSB Library. Escalante organized the ELAWRO in 1967 after tiring of the indignities poor\, single mothers of color like her secured at the hands of local authorities. Focused on economic justice and human dignity\, Escalante’s social and political activism sheds new light on the multiple insurgencies and inter-organizational dynamics across a wide berth of movements\, including welfare rights\, women of color and white women’s feminist struggles\, and Chicano battles for self-determination. Today\, Escalante and the ELAWRO carry tremendous historical insight for the current struggles for human dignity\, as they teach us the critical role of individual as well as collective\, grassroots activism and leadership in furthering movements for social justice. \nSpeakers to include: Alicia Escalante; Miroslava Chavez-Garcia\, History; & Rosie Bermudez\, PhD Candidate\, Chicana/o Studies. Reception to follow. \n

SUMMARY:Hannah Arendt\, On Truth and Lying in Politics
DESCRIPTION:Lecture and discussion with Prof. Susanne Lüdemann (Munich/Rutgers Univ.) \nHannah Arendt (1906 –1975) was a German-born American political theorist. She escaped Europe during the Holocaust\, becoming an American citizen. Her works offer provocative reflections on the conditions of possibility for political experience\, an experience that defines the human condition. Her work is deeply concerned with the questions of nationhood\, totalitarianism\, the status of refugees and stateless persons\, and the political sphere as an autonomous domain of human practice. \nSusannne Lüdemann is the Charlotte M. Craig Distinguished Visiting Professor of German at Rutgers University and is professor of German and Comparative Literature at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich\, Germany. After having received her Ph.D. from the University of Freiburg (Germany)\, she held research and teaching positions at Aarhus University (Denmark)\, at the Freie Universität Berlin\, at the University of Konstanz\, and at the University of Chicago. Her books include: Politics of Deconstruction. A New Introduction to Jacques Derrida (2014); Exemplarity and Singularity: Thinking Through Particulars in Literature\, Philosophy\, and Law (2015)\, co-edited with Michèle Lowrie; Der fiktive Staat. Konstruktionen des politischen Körpers in der Geschichte Europas (co-authored with A. Koschorke\, T. Frank\, E. Matala\, 2007); Metaphern der Gesellschaft. Studien zum soziologischen und politischen Imaginären (2004); Mythos und Selbstdarstellung. Zur Poetik der Psychoanalyse (1994). Susanne Lüdemann works at the intersection of modern literature\, continental philosophy\, political theory\, and psychoanalysis. Her current research project is a critical edition of Hannah Arendts’s unpublished lectures on Immanuel Kant. She is also preparing a monograph on Hannah Arendt and the Problem of Judgment in Modernity. The seminar will begin with a short presentation by Dr. Lüdemann\, after which we will discuss the following texts by Hannah Arendt: \n\n“Lying in Politics: Reflections on the Pentagon Papers\,” in: Crises of the Republic (1972)\, pp. 1-47 https://monoskop.org/images/7/70/Arendt_Hannah_Crises_of_the_Republic.pdf\n“Truth and Politics”\, The New Yorker\, Feb. 25\, 1967\, https://idanlandau.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/arendt-truth-and-politics.pdf

SUMMARY:Marriage and Ritual Performance among the Servants of the Babylonian Gods
DESCRIPTION:Talk by Bastian Still\, Leiden University \nWith more than 50\,000 legal-administrative cuneiform tablets\, the so-called Neo-\nBabylonian Period (c. 625-484 BCE) is one of the best-documented periods in the\nhistory of Mesopotamia\, the region between Tigris and Euphrates. Unfortunately\,\nthis invaluable and very rich material rarely finds use in wider social-historical\ndiscourses\, as cuneiform specialists still engage predominantly in conventional\ninvestigations of philological\, juridical and economic nature. Attempts to further the\nfield of Assyriology by providing much needed social perspectives are still strikingly\nmissing with the result that the complex fabric of this ancient society as a whole\nremains a poorly understood subject of research – this is particularly obvious in the\nstudy of Babylonian marriage. \nThis talk presents a novel approach to marriage in Babylonian society of the\nmid-first millennium BCE\, based on a combination of social network analysis\,\nsociological theory and anthropological studies.  Focusing on priests in the city of Borsippa\, \nthe talk reveals how marriage practices helped shape not only the social order of the community but also the daily cult activities of the temple of Borsippa.

SUMMARY:Let us go upon the Acropolis: John Wesley Gilbert in Greece\, September 1890-April 1891
DESCRIPTION:Talk by John W.I. Lee\, UCSB History Department \n \nJohn Wesley Gilbert (ca. 1863-1923) was born in Hephzibah\, Georgia. He attended Paine College (Augusta\, Georgia)\, then received his BA from Brown University in 1888. He was the third African American to graduate from Brown. As a Brown MA student in 1890-1891\, Gilbert became the first African American to attend the fledgling American School of Classical Studies at Athens (ASCSA). The ASCSA was founded in 1881 by a group of scholars from Brown\, Columbia\, Harvard\, Yale\, and other American colleges as a research and teaching center for Greek archaeology\, literature\, and history. \nDrawing on Gilbert’s own writings and other contemporary documents\, this talk examines the historical significance of Gilbert’s time in Greece. During his year as a student at the American School\, Gilbert traveled throughout Greece\, wrote a thesis on the demes (political subdivisions) of ancient Athens\, and took part in the ASCSA’s excavations at the ancient city of Eretria. \nAfter studying in Greece\, Gilbert returned to the U.S. to teach at Paine College in Augusta\, Georgia. He was a leader in the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church (now Christian Methodist Episcopal Church) and was an important voice for African American education and for racial equality and harmony in the U.S. \nThis talk is part of the ‘Black Classicism’ lecture series presented in conjunction with the “14 Black Classicists” exhibition hosted by the AD&A Museum and the UCSB Library.  The lecture is co-sponsored by the Argyropoulos Endowment in Hellenic Studies\, and the departments of Classics and Black Studies.

SUMMARY:"Thinking Palestine Panel: 1967 and Beyond"\, Panel and Poster Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on April 28 from 4-6:30 pm for a panel\, poster exhibit\, and reception for the event “Thinking Palestine: 1967 and Beyond.” The event will be at Wireframe Studio in the Music Library\, Music Building 1st floor. \nJune 2017 will mark fifty years of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank\, the Gaza Strip\, and East Jerusalem. The anniversary makes all too evident what activists and scholars have long noted: the Israeli military occupation is not temporary. It is a defining structure of the Israeli and Palestinian political landscape. \nAlong with UCLA and UC Berkeley\, UCSB is hosting a day of commemoration that will include a panel\, a poster exhibit\, and a reception. The panel\, including Felice Blake\, Richard Falk\, Lisa Hajjar\, and Sherene Seikaly\, seeks to build on decades of critical thinking and political organizing around Palestine and justice more broadly. It will engage how legality\, legitimacy\, and history have intersected over the last half a century. The discussant for the panel is Jennifer Tyburczy.

SUMMARY:Lawrence Badash Memorial Lecture - Erika Milam on "Creatures of Cain"
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on May 10\, 4PM\, in the McCune Conference Room for the Lawrence Badash Memorial Lecture. Our guest speaker will be Erika Lorraine Milam (Princeton University) who will be giving a lecture titled Creatures of Cain: Human Nature and the Politics of Violence During the Cold War.  \nHuman nature contains the seeds of humanity’s destruction. Or so it seemed to popular consumers of evolutionary theory in the late 1960s who maintained that the essential quality distinguishing the human animal from its simian kin lay in our capacity for murder. This startlingly pessimistic view enjoyed particular currency in the United States between 1966 and 1975. Even ten years earlier\, this vision of humanity would have struck many scientists as odd. After the Second World War\, liberal American biologists and anthropologists had crafted an account of humanity’s past that emphasized a common evolutionary heritage bonded through continued inter-breeding into a universal family of man. Her talk tells the story of how definitions of human nature came to grip public science with such force and why purported insights shifted\, so dramatically and in such a short time\, from seeing humanity as characterized by our unique capacity for reasoned cooperation to emphasizing\, even lauding\, our proficiency with violence. \n \nErika Milam is an Associate Professor of History at Princeton University where she specializes in the history of evolutionary theory. Her research explores how scientists have used animals as models for understanding human behavior\, from sex to aggression. She is author of Looking for a Few Good Males: Female Choice in Evolutionary Biology (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press\, 2010) and coeditor\, with Robert Nye\, of Scientific Masculinities (Chicago: University of Chicago Press\, 2015).   \nThe Badash Lecture honors the late Prof. Lawrence Badash\, a long-time professor in the history of science at UCSB. The lecture is made possible with generous donations from Larry’s partner Nancy Hofbauer\, his former student Peter Neushel\, and numerous other donors who have contributed their support to the series. \nA flyer for this event is here. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Politics of Rights and The 1911 Revolution in China\, a talk by Xiaowei Zheng
DESCRIPTION:The Workshop Theoretical Perspectives on War\, Political Violence\, Nationalism\, and the State (His 291) is pleased to present Xiaowei Zheng\, Associate Professor of History and East Asian Languages and Cultural Studies at UCSB\, who will speak about her forthcoming book with Stanford University Press\, The Politics of Rights and the 1911 Revolution in China.  The appointment is Friday May 19th from 3:00 to 4:30 pm\, in HSSB 3001E. \nProfessor Zheng’s presentation will focus on her books’ introduction and conclusions\, which can downloaded from the following links:  Zheng Introduction_coded_ED Feb 3 2017\, Zheng Conclusion_coded_ED Feb 3 2017 \nChina’s 1911 Revolution was a momentous political transformation. Its leaders\, however\, were not rebellious troublemakers on the periphery of imperial order. On the contrary\, they were a powerful political and economic elite deeply entrenched in local society and well-respected both for their imperially sanctioned cultural credentials and for their mastery of new ideas. The revolution they spearheaded produced a new\, democratic political culture that enshrined national sovereignty\, constitutionalism\, and the rights of the people as indisputable principles. Based upon previously untapped Qing and Republican sources\, The Politics of Rights and the 1911 Revolution in China is a nuanced and colorful chronicle of the revolution as it occurred in local and regional areas. Xiaowei Zheng explores the ideas that motivated the revolution\, the popularization of those ideas\, and their animating impact on the Chinese people at large. The focus of the book is not on the success or failure of the revolution\, but rather on the transformative effect that revolution has on people and what they learn from it. \nFor questions about this event please contact Prof. Cecilia Méndez at mendez@history.ucsb.edu.

SUMMARY:A Woman’s Drink? Gender & the Global History of the Tea Shop
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Professor Erika Rappaport of the UCSB History Department explores how tea shops emerged in the 18th century and came to be defined as “women’s spaces” in 19th century and early 20th century Europe and North America — but as “male spaces” in parts of Africa and South Asia. These institutions helped build mass markets but also shaped the “gendered” meanings surrounding selling and drinking tea. \nOriginal manuscripts will be on display.

SUMMARY:Face 2 Face: Egodocuments and Microhistory - An adventure in historical thinking
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Sigurdur Gylfi Magnusson\, Professor of Cultural History at the University of Iceland and a Visiting Scholar all this year in the UCSB History Department\, will give a talk May 22\, at noon in HSSB 4020. \nDr. Magnusson brings us an expert’s interpretation of two major aspects of current European historical writing: life writing and microhistory. He will discuss the significance of the concept of gender for historical analysis\, particularly on the basis of the importance of different types of egodocu-ments for the self-expression of the sexes. He will evaluate the status of the autobiography as a historical source\, with some consideration of other types of life writing or egodocuments in Iceland. He will show how the form of the genre affects the sexes’ access to self-expression and how their differing ‘cultural space’ opens up opportunities for people self-creation. Dr. Magnusson views these developments in an international light. Sources of this kind and women’s perspectives are necessary to enable scholars to interpret much material that has previously defied their analysis. \nTHERE WILL BE FOOD.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Isabella Gabrovsky on "Rethinking Britain" and Mario Tumen on "Decolonization of Taxation in Peru"
DESCRIPTION:The Workshop on Theoretical Perspectives on War\, Political Violence\, Nationalism and the State (History 291)  is pleased to invite you to its final open presentation and discussion this Friday May 26 from 3:00 to 5:30 pm  in HSSB 4020.  Two graduate students\, Isabella Gabrovsky and Mario Tumen\, will be presenting their work in progress on Britain and Peru. Please\, join the conversation. Their papers can be downloaded from the links below.  Everybody is welcome! \n“Rethinking Britain: An English identity Crisis in the Era of Devolution.” \nBy Isabella Gabrovsky. PhD student\, Political Science Department\, UCSB. \nThis paper (Gabrovsky Rethinking Britain rev) seeks to explore the rise of nationalist movements in the UK\, how they differfrom the global rise of the far-right\, and what changes in Westminster we might expect as a result. While the leftist Scottish National Party surged to become the second largest party in the UK\, there has been a rise of right-wing nationalist groups in England such as the UK Independence Party. Analysis of historical context will shed light on how these two diametrically opposed political ideologies expanded simultaneously. This is seen in the psephological maps of the 2015 General Election and the Brexit referendum. The current political climate in the UK\, where two separate nationalist movements are in power\, is unprecedented and more importantly\, unsustainable. The policies that arise during this time will determine not only what role the UK will play on a global stage\, but also\, if the UK will exist as a unitary state in the near future. There is a significant gap in the current political literature deconstructing the motivations behind these nationalist movements. This paper will address that void\, asses the potential political ramifications\, and provide possible policy prescriptions. Isabella Gabrovsky currently is a PhD student at UCSB in the Political Science department. She has previously worked in the Scottish Parliament. \n  \n“Decolonization of Taxation: Indigenous Peasants and the Civil War of 1895 in Peru” \nBy Mario Tumen. PhD student\, History Department\, UCSB \nBy looking at the civil war\, or the “Revolution of 1895” as it happened in the department of Ancash\, Peru\, this essay ( Tumen\, Decolonization of Taxation) analyzes the role indigenous peasants played in the abolition of the contribución personal\, a tax they had paid since colonial times. Through war\, they exercised their citizenship and influenced the distribution of power within the state. Yet\, the largest peasant insurrection of the nineteenth century\, the Atusparia Rebellion\, had shaken social order in the department ten years before. I argue that resilient efforts to abolish the contribución personal in 8 Ancash date back to 1885 and continued in the period leading up to Revolution of 1895. \nEverybody is welcome\, please spread the word! \n* * Coffee will be served. \nFor questions or comments\, please contact prof. Cecilia Méndez at mendez@history.ucsb.edu

SUMMARY:Healing in Rwanda: Dealing with Legacies of the 1994 Genocide\, presentation by Emmanuel Habimana
DESCRIPTION:What would it take you to forgive the murder of your family? What would you do if you had to choose between your life and those of 400 children? How would you redefine family if you were the only survivor in yours? And how would you react when the people who tried to exterminate your people were released from prison and returned to your community? These are some of the questions Emmanuel Habimana addresses in his documentary film Komora: To Heal. \nEmmanuel Habimana is a filmmaker\, public speaker and educational activist from Kigali\, Rwanda. After surviving the 1994 Rwanda genocide\, he became a youth organizer in Kigali\, where he assisted fellow orphans of the genocide. He was trained in the National Unity and Reconciliation Commission\, and is currently studying film production in Los Angeles.
