SUMMARY:Talk by Mateo Jarquin\, "Managaua 1979\," Monday\, April 20\, 4 pm\, HSSB 4041
DESCRIPTION:Professor Mateo Jarquin of Chapman University will be giving a talk titled “Managua 1979: International and Transnational Origins of the Cold War’s Last Great Revolution.”  \n \n\nAfter the Cuban Revolution\, armed movements across Latin America embraced violent struggle as a path to social transformation. Yet only one managed to seize power: Nicaragua’s Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional (FSLN). Their unlikely victory in July 1979 gripped the world’s attention and ignited a major hotspot in the late Cold War. \nHow did it happen? Drawing from his book The Sandinista Revolution: A Global Latin American History\, Mateo Jarquín recounts the fall of the U.S.-backed dictatorship of Anastasio Somoza. The story unfolds not only inside Nicaragua and in Washington but across Latin America\, where the rebel FSLN was embedded in a regional web of state and non‑state actors conspiring to isolate Somoza\, challenge U.S. influence\, and ultimately bring about the last major left‑wing revolution of the 20th century. \nMateo Jarquín is Assistant Professor of History and Director of the Master’s Program in War\, Diplomacy\, and Society at Chapman University. His research explores the intersection of democracy\, revolutions\, and international relations in modern Latin America. He is the author of The Sandinista Revolution: A Global Latin American History (University of North Carolina Press\, 2024)\, which received the 2025 Michael H. Hunt Prize in International History from the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. Articles from this research agenda have appeared in journals such as Cold War History and The Americas: A Quarterly Review of Latin American History. Alongside his historical work\, he writes regularly about contemporary Central American politics. Originally from Nicaragua\, Jarquín holds a PhD from Harvard University and a BA from Grinnell College. \n\nThe event is sponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies and International History and the UCSB Department of History. It is free and open to the public. \n  \n

SUMMARY:History Associates Talk by Professor Anthony Barbieri on "Beyond the Mountains and Seas: Eurasian History through Travelers’ Eyes (400 BCE-1936 CE)"
DESCRIPTION:The History associates brings to you a talk by Professor Anthony Barbieri off the department of history on his latest book. The talk narrates the integrated history of Eurasia over the last two millennia through the travel of two dozen remarkable men and women who voyaged across this vast continent and reported on their encounters with a foreign culture.  It argues that\, despite increasing empirical knowledge gathered about   the “other\,” mental projections of the “monsters at the edge of the world\,” still colored peoples’ perception of the foreign “other” well into the modern era. \n

SUMMARY:Lawrence Badash Memorial Lecture 2026 : "Reading Galileo's Letters:  Experiments in Friendship\, Knowledge\, and Community" by Paula Findlen
DESCRIPTION:Paula Findlen\, Ubalto Pierotti Professor in History and Italian Studies at Stanford University will be delivering The Lawrence Badash Memorial Lecture of 2026. Her talk will be on Tuesday\, January 27 at 4:30 pm in the McCune Room\, HSSB 6020. Her talk is titled:\n“Reading Galileo’s Letters:  Experiments in Friendship\, Knowledge\, and Community”\n \nAbstract:\nGalileo’s letters are an essential archive for understanding his life and work\, but what exactly was their role in the evolution and presentation of his science?  This talk explores the instrumental role of Galileo’s letters in the production and communication of scientific knowledge and the evolution of the scientific community with which he engaged.  It also explores the role of letters in the controversies surrounding his science and discusses why we should see Galileo’s letters as one of his important experiments.

SUMMARY:History Associates Talk : Alfredo Gonzalez | "An American Promise: 20th Century US Military Naturalization."
DESCRIPTION:Assistant Professor of Political Science at UCSB\, Alfredo Gonzalez will speak on “An American Promise: 20th Century US Military Naturalization.” \nDespite widespread recognition that modern social welfare programs stem from the protections pledged to war veterans\, commitments from Congress to naturalize immigrant service members and veterans are absent in debates on the military social safety net. Legal historians have shown that after World War I\, veterans’ organizations were instrumental in pressuring Congress to grant citizenship to racially ineligible war veterans\, but we know less about whether veterans’ organizations have since considered naturalization a military benefit worth protecting. I explore the boundaries of military social welfare between WWI and the War on Terror\, when military naturalization policy significantly changed from guaranteeing legal citizenship to merely expediting an immigrant’s ability to apply for naturalization. Understanding the development of military naturalization policy and its relationship to military welfare requires tracing how the process unfolded to reveal the extent\, if at all\, decision makers and veterans view political incorporation as part of the repertoire of protected benefits. \n \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Talk: Erin Trumble\, "Rebirth after Retirement: How Elderly Women Reinvented Femininity in Edo Japan"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Graduate Student Erin Trumble\n \n\n \n\nTitle: “Rebirth after Retirement: How Elderly Women Reinvented Femininity in Edo Japan”\n \nDescription: The talk will focus on retirement as a life stage and examine how it represented a time when women had both more freedom after being liberated from daily tasks and more authority due to their age. I will examine prescriptive literature and its silences around responsibilities for retired women\, as well as use examples from the lives of Nakako\, Ieko\, Shigako\, and Aijo to show how women engaged with travel\, literature\, and religion in new ways as a result of this freedom and authority.
