SUMMARY:The Sixth Biennial Borderlands International Graduate Student Conference: Beyond Marginality: Race\, Ethnicity\, and Memory
DESCRIPTION:Borderlands\, broadly defined\, are spaces where people of different ethnicities\, cultures\, religions\, political systems\, or linguistic traditions come into contact\, often without any one authority exercising complete control. These encounters require both individuals and societies to adapt culturally\, politically\, economically\, religiously\, artistically\, and technologically to other ways of life\, often with unexpected and surprising results. The sixth biennial Borderlands International Graduate Student Conference\, “Beyond Marginality: Race\, Ethnicity\, and Memory” showcases how studying the borderlands reveals marginality as a decentralizing process\, treating the marginalized subject as the center of the discourse rather than at its outskirts. \nCo-sponsored by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center; the UCSB Graduate Student Association; the Virgil Cordano\, OFM\, Endowment in Catholic Studies in the Department of Religious Studies at UCSB; the Departments of Anthropology\, Classics\, Comparative Literature\, History\, Global Studies\, History of Art and Architecture\, Religious Studies\, and Sociology at UCSB; the California Consortium for the Study of Late Antiquity; and the Drake Fund. \nSCHEDULE \nFriday\, April 6th \n3:30-4:30 – Meet & Greet/Refreshments \n4:30 – Introductions and Welcoming Comments \n4:30-5:30 – Keynote Address by Stuart Smith\, Professor of Anthropology and the University of California\, Santa Barbara \n          Gift of the Nile?

SUMMARY:IHC Visiting Scholar Talk: Media Before Gutenberg
DESCRIPTION:Although “media” conjures modern\, technologized modes of communication (television\, the internet\, print journalism)\, mediation is a central part of all communication. In the Middle Ages\, media referred to networks of voices\, texts\, bodies\, human actions\, and nonhuman forces that were involved in sense perception\, social interaction\, storytelling\, and other acts of cultural transmission. This talk will elaborate on the media ecology of the medieval West by putting Aristotle’s theories of sense perception in dialogue with theories of new media and embodied informatics\, from Marshall McLuhan’s description of media as the “extensions of man” to N. Katherine Hayles’s cyborg theory. Understanding media before machine technologies and the era of mass communication heralded by the printing press also yields new insights into medieval literature\, and this talk will conclude with a discussion of media and mediation in Geoffrey Chaucer’s masterwork\, The Canterbury Tales. \nIngrid Nelson is the author of Lyric Tactics: Poetry\, Genre\, and Practice (University of Pennsylvania\, 2017).  She is an Associate Professor of English at Amherst College and a 2017–18 IHC Visiting Scholar. \nA reception will follow. Sponsored by the IHC and co-presented with Medieval Studies.
