SUMMARY:Conference: Satyajit Ray and the Sense of Wonder
DESCRIPTION:This three-day conference and accompanying film series have been organized to celebrate the birth centenary of the renowned Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray (1921-1992). Most critical evaluations of Ray\, which tend to focus on his films while overlooking his considerable literary and design output\, have consecrated him as a modernist master or a postcolonial auteur. Such discussions are often couched in terms of modernity and tradition\, Orientalism and nativism\, objectivity and irrationality\, skepticism and enchantment\, art cinema and popular cinema. Instead\, we focus on wonder\, an affect that cuts transversally across these polarities\, as an analytical category that enables fresh perspectives from which to assess Ray’s contributions to Bengali culture\, Indian modernity\, and global cinema. We address his stature as the bestselling author of Bengali-language young adult fiction as well as one of the most revered graphic artists of modern India. While Ray has been widely hailed as an artist upholding a universal brand of humanism\, the conference seeks to flesh out his singularity in terms of a vernacular modernism and a critical humanist orientation. \nThe conference is organized by Bhaskar Sarkar\, Professor Film and Media Studies\, and Bishnupriya Ghosh\, Professor of English and Global Studies\, on behalf of the Global-Popular Workshop\, with generous support from the UC Humanities Research Institute; Center for South Asian Studies\, UC Santa Cruz; and the Carsey-Wolf Center\, Orfalea Center for Global and International Studies\, Department of Film and Media Studies\, IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group\, and College of Letters and Science\, UC Santa Barbara. \nImage: Satyajit Ray’s poster for the film Devi\, 1960

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Intellectual Disability\, the English Law\, and the Fools of Shakespeare and His Contemporaries
DESCRIPTION:This talk will examine how fools in early modern drama and literature were considered intellectually disabled\, if viewed in the light of early modern criteria for intellectual disability. The English law was the discipline that most of all strove to conceptualize such a disability: calling it idiocy\, it defined it as someone’s incapacity to manage property. Such thinking influenced the way literary characters were represented on the stage and page. Hence\, they showcased a tendency to be interrogated\, to be on the verge of bankruptcy\, and to be vulnerable victims of ruthless guardians. Insights from contemporary disability studies theory will help historicize literary fools as idiots. \nDr. Alice Equestri is a Lecturer in English literature at the University of Padua as well as a Research Associate at the University of Sussex\, where she held a position as Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow between 2017 and 2019. She has published two monographs: Literature and Intellectual Disability in Early Modern England: Folly\, Law\, and Medicine 1500-1640 (Routledge\, 2021) and The Fools of Shakespeare’s Romances (Carocci\, 2016)\, which was awarded the AIA PhD Dissertation Prize 2015. Her essays have appeared or are due to appear in venues including the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Literature\, Renaissance Studies\, Notes and Queries\, and Disability Studies Quarterly. \nThe event will also be available via Zoom here. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Disability Studies Initiative Research Focus Group\, the Early Modern Center of the English Department\, the Comparative Literature Program\, and the Graduate Center for Literary Research
