SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Welcome Meeting One: What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for our first meeting of the IHC-sponsored Research Focus Group “What is a Shakespeare?” This will be the first of two welcome meetings we are hosting for the group (in order to cover more scheduling needs). The second meeting will be Thursday\, October 7th at 11am PST (more info here). \n“What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media” is an interdisciplinary group of graduate students and faculty focused on investigating the notion of “global Shakespeare.” We are interested in understanding both the ways that Shakespeare has been adapted in a global context and how an emphasis on Shakespeare has obscured other valuable insights culturally\, socially\, theoretically\, and politically. \nZoom meeting link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/88212028319 \n

SUMMARY:Humanities Decanted: Irwin Appel\, Naked Shakes
DESCRIPTION:Join us online for a dialogue between Irwin Appel (Theater and Dance) and James Kearney (English) about Appel’s theater company\, Naked Shakes\, and their recent production of Twelfth Night\, staged outside at UCSB’s Commencement Green in front of the lagoon. Audience Q&A will follow. \nNaked Shakes derives its rather provocative name from the principle that an actor in a bare theatrical space\, along with meticulous attention to language\, few technical elements\, and the collective imagination of the audience\, can create what Prospero in The Tempest calls “rough magic\,” hopefully revealing the true heart\, meaning\, driving force\, and original inspiration behind a Shakespeare play. This theatrical style demands actors who are highly skilled in voice and text\, and simultaneously greatly expressive with their physicality and imaginations. Entrances and exits are not necessarily literal or linear; an actor can simply exit by pulling down a mask or picking up a musical instrument. With the inspiration and creative power of our choreographers and designers\, Naked Shakes blends wild\, actor-generated theatricality with razor sharp attention to language and imagery. As an audience member\, one may\, at times\, experience a veritable visual feast while also being able to close one’s eyes and absorb the sound and text as if one were listening to a radio play or podcast. \nIrwin Appel (he/him/his) is Professor and Chair of the Department of Theater and Dance at UCSB. As a professional director\, Equity actor and composer/sound designer\, he has worked with the Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles\, Shakespeare Santa Cruz\, Orlando Shakes\, the New York\, Oregon\, Utah\, New Jersey\, and Colorado Shakespeare Festivals\, Southwest Shakespeare Company\, The Acting Company\, Theatre For a New Audience\, Hartford Stage\, Indiana Repertory Theatre\, Arizona Theatre Company\, PCPA\, both the National Theatre Conservatory and Colorado New Play Summit at the Denver Center of the Performing Arts\, the Bread Loaf Acting Ensemble\, and other prominent regional theaters. In Europe\, he acted the role of Pandarus in Troilus and Cressida in the Czech Republic with the Prague Shakespeare Company at the renowned Estates Theatre where Mozart premiered Don Giovanni in 1787. He is the founder and artistic director of Naked Shakes\, producing Shakespeare’s plays at UCSB\, in the United States\, and internationally since 2006. For Naked Shakes\, he has created two major adaptations of Shakespeare’s plays: first\, The Death of Kings\, combining eight Shakespeare history plays from Richard II through Richard III into one event that has been performed in California\, Arizona\, and the Czech Republic. Second and most recently\, he combined Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra and Julius Caesar\, along with parts of George Bernard Shaw’s Caesar and Cleopatra\, into one play entitled Immortal Longings. He has also has led workshops and lectured about Naked Shakes in China\, Greece\, Switzerland\, Poland\, and the Czech Republic. He is a graduate of Princeton University and the Juilliard School. www.deathofkings.com \nSponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:Inaugural Lecture: Environmental Justice as Regeneration
DESCRIPTION:The grassroots environmental justice movement and the field of environmental justice studies have evolved in creative and inspiring directions over the years. Recent work focuses on the challenges of envisioning and realizing abolition\, confronting anthropogenic climate change/disruption\, and articulating transformative approaches to achieving ecologically healthy and socially equitable policy-making for a “just transition.” This presentation considers what each of these areas of scholarship and politics could signal for the future of environmental justice and for advancing grounded and uplifting frameworks for regenerative development. Audience Q&A will follow. \nDavid N. Pellow is the Dehlsen and Department Chair of Environmental Studies and Director of the Global Environmental Justice Project at UC Santa Barbara\, where he teaches courses on environmental and social justice\, race/class/gender and environmental conflict\, human-animal conflicts\, sustainability\, and social change movements that confront our socioenvironmental crises and social inequality. He has published a number of works on environmental justice issues in communities of color in the U.S. and globally. His recent books include: What is Critical Environmental Justice? (2017); Keywords for Environmental Studies (editor\, with Joni Adamson and William Gleason\, 2016); and Total Liberation: The Power and Promise of Animal Rights and the Radical Earth Movement (2014). He has volunteered for and served on the Boards of Directors of several community-based\, national\, and international organizations that are dedicated to improving the living and working environments for people of color\, immigrants\, indigenous peoples\, and working class communities\, including the Global Action Research Center\, the Center for Urban Transformation\, the Santa Clara Center for Occupational Safety and Health\, Global Response\, Greenpeace USA\, and International Rivers. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Regeneration series \nLive closed-captioning and Spanish interpretation will be provided. \n  \nCONFERENCIA INAUGURAL: JUSTICIA AMBIENTAL COMO REGENERACIÓN \nEl movimiento base por la justicia ambiental y el campo de los estudios de justicia ambiental han evolucionado en direcciones creativas e inspiradoras a lo largo de los años. El trabajo reciente se centra en los desafíos de imaginar y hacer realidad la abolición\, enfrentar el cambio / disrupción climática antropogénica y articular enfoques transformadores para así\, lograr una formulación de políticas ecológicamente saludables y socialmente equitativas para una “transición justa”. Esta presentación considera lo que cada una de estas áreas de la academia y la política podría indicar tanto para el futuro de la justicia ambiental como para el avance de marcos fundamentales para el desarrollo regenerativo. Seguirán las preguntas y respuestas de la audiencia. \nDavid N. Pellow es Dehlsen y presidente del Departamento de Estudios Ambientales y director del Proyecto de Justicia Ambiental Global en UC Santa Barbara\, donde imparte cursos sobre justicia ambiental y social\, raza / clase / género y conflicto ambiental\, conflictos entre humanos y animales\, sostenibilidad y movimientos de cambio social que afrontan nuestras crisis socioambientales y la desigualdad social.

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Making Sense of Melothesia: Embodying the Zodiac in Ancient Rome and India
DESCRIPTION:In this talk Tejas Aralere will present a comparative analysis of the zodiacal melothesia as it appears in Manilius’s Astronomica\, a Latin astrological epic poem (ca. 20–40 CE)\, and in Sphujidhvaja’s Yavana Jātaka ( “Greek Horoscopy”)\, a Sanskrit astrological treatise (ca. second century CE). Melothesia refers to the mapping of the twelve signs of the Babylonian zodiac on twelve regions of the human body over which they possess particular influence. In a brief discussion of the connections between these two texts\, Aralere will show how the Romans and Indians employ the zodiacal melothesia in strikingly different ways and for different purposes that reflect their distinctive cultural contexts. This makes earlier theories that posit “direct transmission” of the Yavana Jātaka from Greece to India highly implausible. Aralere’s comparative study will illuminate the connections between Manilius’s use of melothesia and Roman imperial political ideologies and Sphujidhvaja’s use of melothesia and Vedic ritual and legal traditions. \nThis event will be held in person (4080 HSSB) with the option to join via Zoom here: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/81601164112. \nTejas Aralere is a doctoral student in the Department of Classics at UC Santa Barbara. His research explores the complex networks of exchange of ancient astronomical\, astrological\, and medical knowledge between the Mediterranean and India and seeks to re-evaluate Orientalist narratives that claim that “rational” scientific knowledge flowed unidirectionally from the ancient Mediterranean to India. \nSponsored by the IHC South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group and UCSB Department of Classics

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Reading Group Discussion: The Possibilities of Undisciplining with Sharon Kinoshita’s “Worlding Medieval French Literature”
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on October 18th at 2 pm in HSSB 3001E for a reading group discussion of Sharon Kinoshita’s chapter\, “Worlding Medieval French Literature\,” in eds. Christie McDonald and Susan Rubin Suleiman\, French Global: A New Approach to Literary History (New York: Columbia University Press\, 2010). As the first IHC Un-disciplining Premodern Histories of Race and Gender Research Focus Group event of the year\, we will begin by discussing Kinoshita’s chapter and where un-disciplining and re-disciplining might possibly lead us as we focus our attention on the intersections of premodern histories of race and gender beyond a Eurocentric purview. Please email jessicazisa@ucsb.edu for access to the reading. \nSponsored by the IHC Un-disciplining Premodern Histories of Race and Gender Research Focus Group and UCSB Medieval Studies

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Chalk Talk: Moving Beyond One Dimensional Shakespeare in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Students often shy away from Shakespeare in their classes\, but educators can also get nervous about teaching the Bard! Our goal for our pedagogical discussion is to reflect on our own experiences learning about and teaching Shakespeare in the classroom and how we can enhance our future teaching practices\, particularly through the lens of utilizing global media and socio-culturally aware pedagogy. We will provide links to optional pre-event resources after registration\, but we invite everyone from any discipline interested in developing their understanding of the Bard in the classroom to join us in our discussion. \nSponsored by the IHC What Is a Shakespeare?: Shakespeare and Global Media Research Focus Group \nRegister to Attend \nZoom attendance link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/81896036637

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Exploding the Khoi and San Colonial Stereotypes\, Reclaiming African Histories
DESCRIPTION:Academic historians have largely represented the Khoi and the San people of Southern Africa as marginal to the production of the region’s history\, deleting their place in the emergence and development of African civilization and self-liberation. As a public historian\, intellectual\, activist and healer\, Attaqua’s voice has intervened to forcefully reframe the history of the indigenous people of Southern Africa. In this talk\, she will speak about the Khoi and San’s long struggle against the historical and epistemic silencing. \nAttaqua is a South African indigenous historian\, social justice activist\, knowledge keeper\, and oral and visual storyteller. She was born in District Six\, Cape Town\, in 1964. She is from the clan Herandien from Zoar\, the Attaqua nation in the Western Cape. A fighter against the Apartheid state\, she was forced to flee South Africa to Germany and the United Kingdom\, where she studied and assisted the banned South African Congress of Trade Unions. She returned to South Africa in 1990 where she continued to work for the Department of International Affairs of the African National Congress. In 1994\, Attaqua joined the film industry where she cut her teeth in fiction and documentary film making. She lives in Johannesburg where she works doing holistic indigenous treatments and consultations dealing with colonial\, inter-generational\, historical and oppression trauma. \nCo-sponsored by the IHC African Studies Research Focus Group and the Africa Center \nZoom attendance link: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/86978353518?pwd=dzZsQ0ZsOVVaNmhFTjR3bk95K3ZEZz09 \n
