The vessel was carrying a primary cargo of wine and pine tar contained in more than\n200 transport amphoras and smaller quantities of East Greek pottery. At the time the Tektaş Burnu ship\nsunk in the third quarter of the fifth century B.C.\, Athens was the leading naval power in the\nMediterranean\, a position the Athenians achieved through the economic exploitation of allied city-states\nand heavy-handed control over maritime trade. As the only Classical shipwreck ever to be fully excavated\nin Aegean waters\, the Tektaş Burnu ship promises to shed light on local trade networks at a time when\nIonia was thought to be mired in an “economic paralysis” brought on by the high cost of Athenian\nimperialism in the decades following the Ionian Revolt of 499 B.C. \nDeborah Carlson is Associate Professor in the Nautical Archaeology Program at Texas A&M University.\nProf. Carlson specializes in trade and seafaring in the ancient Mediterranean. \nSponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America with cooperation from the UCSB Department of Classics. \njwil 03.x.2011 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/the-tekta-burnu-shipwreck-shedding-new-light-on-classical-ionia/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20111019T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20111019T000000 DTSTAMP:20260506T201433 CREATED:20150928T112833Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112833Z UID:10001998-1318982400-1318982400@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:The Academic Job Market for Historians DESCRIPTION:The Graduate placement committee will hold a workshop on navigating the academic job market next Wednesday Oct. 19 at 4 pm in HSSB 4020.

A notable\naspect of this movement was the emergence of militant\nwomen activists affiliated with Jamia Hafsa the\nwomen’s seminary affiliated with the Lal Masjid – who\nparticipated in very public forms of protest to demand\nnew systems of governance premised on a purist interpretation\nof Islam. This presentation will illuminate the\nways that these religious femininities engage\, challenge\,\nand intervene in hegemonic discourses surrounding\nthe Global War on Terror. \nDr. Khanum Shaikh is a University of California\nPresidential Postdoctoral Fellow for 2010-2012 in\nthe Department of History at UCSB. \nDirections:The Orfalea Center is located in the detached\nground-level wing of offices on the left just outside the\nmain Ocean Road entrance to Robertson Gymnasium. \nhm 10/15/11 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/militant-femininities-enlightened-moderation-the-global-war-on-terror/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20111020T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20111020T000000 DTSTAMP:20260506T201433 CREATED:20150928T112833Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112833Z UID:10002005-1319068800-1319068800@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:The Arab Spring: Where Are the Swallows? DESCRIPTION:“In England\, a swallow is the first sign of summer\,” Wright says. “Hence we will discuss when will the Arab spring\, representing potentiality\, turn to summer\, representing actuality\, for the people of this region.” The speakers\, who are married\, were living in Egypt during the Egyptian Revolution and were based there during the past decade. The talk will focus on Egypt as an exemplar of the Arab Spring. The presentations will combine big-picture historical analysis with more personal\, anecdotal insights. While the issues of what comes next are inevitably speculative\, the couple will try to extrapolate from the multiple and often contradictory forces at play to suggest some possible outcomes. “By the end of the evening I would like the audience to see that the situation is a little more complex\, subtle and interesting than they thought at the beginning\,” Wright says.\nThe lecture is part of Westmont Downtown: Conversations about Things that Matter\, which is sponsored by the Westmont Foundation.

Rather\, it acts as an arbiter and enforcer in a world system where goals and rules are increasingly universal. Over the past three centuries\, most nations have become republics and many democracies. Almost all have embraced free market economic policies in some form. After World War II\, numerous voluntary pacts prohibited conquest and placed limits on the right of states to abuse their populations. The primary challenge to nationalism lay no longer in imperialism but in universalism. The U.S. did not cause these changes\, Professor Hoffman argues\, but it hastened them. The global role toward which it gravitated was rooted in domestic U.S. experience\, where the historical tension between states’ rights and federal authority prefigured the later tension between state sovereignty and supranational authority.\nElizabeth Cobbs Hoffman is Dwight E. Stanford Professor of American Foreign Relations at San Diego State University. She is the author of The Rich Neighbor Policy: Kaiser and Rockefeller in Brazil (Yale\, 1992) and All You Need is Love: The Peace Corps and the Spirit of the 1960s (Harvard\, 2000). Her first book won the Allan Nevins Prize from the Organization of American Historians and the Stuart Bernath Prize from the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. Professor Hoffman is now completing a book\, for Harvard University Press\, on U.S. foreign relations since 1776. \nThe talk is sponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History (CCWS) and cosponsored by the UCSB Department of History. \nhm 10/17/11 \nThe event is free and open to the public. A brief reception\, with refreshments\, will follow Prof. Hoffman’s presentation.\nPlease join us for this exciting event!

How\, by whom\, and for what purpose was this work of art brought to the residence of the Persian king? Moreover\, Roman marble copies testify to a second\, contemporary version of this work\, destined for collocation in one of the centres of Greece. Close analysis allows the conclusion that one replica was erected in Athens and the other brought to Persia as a gift to the Great King on the occasion of the ‘treaty’ of Kallias by which the Persian Wars were concluded. Penelope serves as a mythical example representing the disturbances brought about by continuous far-reaching warfare.\nThis event is sponsored by the Department of Classics\, the UCSB Ancient Mediterranean Studies Program\, and the Ancient Borderlands Research Focus Group. \njwil 27.x.2011 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/penelope-in-persepolis-or-the-power-of-images-to-stop-war-with-an-arch-enemy/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20111104T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20111104T000000 DTSTAMP:20260506T201433 CREATED:20150928T112834Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112834Z UID:10002015-1320364800-1320364800@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:The Frontier of Leisure:  Southern California and the Making of Modern America DESCRIPTION:The Frontier of Leisure: Southern California and the Making of Modern America (Oxford 2010)\nwinner of the Spur Prize for Best Western Contemporary Nonfiction Book \nLawrence Culver\nAssociate Professor of History\nUtah State University \nall are welcome \nhm 10/31/11 URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/the-frontier-of-leisure-southern-california-and-the-making-of-modern-america/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20111105T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20111105T000000 DTSTAMP:20260506T201433 CREATED:20150928T112832Z LAST-MODIFIED:20150928T112832Z UID:10001763-1320451200-1320451200@www.history.ucsb.edu SUMMARY:Early California Dance DESCRIPTION:Experience the dances of early California in the historic Presidio Chapel withdancer and teacher Diana Replogle-Purinton.

He is also Adjunct Professor of Anthropology at the University of California\, Santa Barbara where he has taught an annual course on California Indians since 2003.

He has served as a member of the Archive-Library’s Board of Trustees of since 1993. Johnson has written more than eighty studies\, including journal articles\, chapters in edited volumes\, and several monographs pertaining to ethnohistorical\, archaeological\, and genetic research regarding California’s original inhabitants.
