SUMMARY:Professor Andrew Robichaud\, “Animal City: The Domestication of America”
DESCRIPTION:Professor Andrew Robichaud\, “Animal City: The Domestication of America” \n\n\nTuesday\, March 2 \n\n11am to 12:15pm \n\n\n  \n\n\n\nAndrew Robichaud\, Assistant Professor of History and Director of Undergraduate Studies\, Boston University\, will be talking about his book Animal City: The Domestication of America (Harvard University Press\, 2019) \n\n\n  \n\n\nAmerican cities were once full of animal life: cattle driven through city streets; pigs feeding in gutters and basements; cows crammed into urban feedlots; horses by the tens of thousands; dogs pulling carts and powering small machines; and wild animals peering out at human spectators from behind bars. In his recent book\, Animal City: The Domestication of America\, Andrew Robichaud reconstructs this evolving world of nineteenth-century urban animal life—from San Francisco to Boston to New York—and reveals its importance\, both then and now. \n\n\n  \n\n\nHosted by the U.S. History Series\, the Joyce Appleby Endowed Chair of America in the World\, and History 13B: History of the U.S. and its Colonial Origins: 19th Century \n\n\n  \n\n\nZoom link:  https://ucla.zoom.us/j/95986426972

Her scholarly career began with a study of religious and political authority in Safavi Iran (1501-1722)\, and then advanced to a close examination of the ways in which textures of time and being influenced the pre-modern writing of Persianate history and the ritualistic performances of Persianate “memory.” \nNavina Najat Haidar has been a curator in the Met’s department of Islamic art since 1999. She helped lead the planning of the Museum’s Galleries for the Art of the Arab Lands\, Turkey\, Iran\, Central Asia\, and Later South Asia\, which have welcomed more than 1.5 million visitors since they opened in November 2011. Haidar is co-author of Masterpieces from the Department of Islamic Art in The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Sultans of the South: Arts of India’s Deccan Courts\, 1323–1687 (both 2011). She is currently working on an exhibition about the art of India’s Deccan sultans. \nRajeev Kinra– Northwestern University- (Ph.D.\, University of Chicago\, 2008) is a cultural historian of early modern South Asia\, with a special emphasis on the literary\, intellectual\, religious\, and political cultures of the Mughal and early British Empires in India (16th-19th centuries). His research draws on several linguistic traditions (especially Persian\, but also Hindi-Urdu and Sanskrit)\, to examine diverse modes of civility\, tolerance\, cosmopolitanism\, and cultural modernity across the Indo-Persian and Indian Ocean worlds. \nKaya Sahin– Indiana University Bloomington- (Ph.D. University of Chicago\, 2007) is a historian of the early modern Ottoman Empire\, with a particular interest in history writing\, governance\, religious/confessional identity\, and the construction of discourses/fictions around the question of what it meant to be an Ottoman. \nPhilip Stern– Duke University- (Ph.D. Columbia University\, 2004) focuses on the history of Britain and the British Empire\, particularly in the early modern period (loosely defined). His first book\, The Company-State\, is a political and intellectual history of the English East India Company in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. He is currently working on or planning projects related to the history of the corporation in the British Empire\, eighteenth-century British overseas exploration and cartography\, the historiography of British India\, early modern economic thought\, the history of companies and colonization\, and digital and data visualization approaches to the problem of colonial sovereignty. \n  \nSponsor(s): Center for India and South Asia\, Center for Near Eastern Studies\, Department of History\, Dean of Social Sciences

SUMMARY:William Marotti - "Engaged Critic\, Radical Art"
DESCRIPTION:Link to Facebook eventEngaged Critic\, Radical Art: Yoshida Yoshie in Art and Performance.UCLA symposium in honor of the opening of the Yoshida Yoshie CollectionIn commemoration of the donation of the Yoshida Yoshie Collection to UCLA\, this symposium will discuss the life and work of critic\, organizer\, artist\, and poet Yoshida Yoshie (1929-2016). The daylong symposium will introduce the manifold activities of Yoshida while locating his activities within the broader art and performance world in which he worked. Over some six decades of work\, Yoshida was instrumental in engaging\, participating\, and promoting radical art and performance. Yoshida introduced Maruki Iri and Maruki Toshi’s Hiroshima Panels in the early 1950s\, travelingto over 300 locations throughout Japan.

Yoshida supported artists prosecuted for protest\, including Akasegawa Genpei and anti-Expo performers. Yoshida took the lead in supporting conceptual\, environmental\, and commune-oriented art endeavors\, including organizing the first free festival in Japan in 1971. From 1973\, he traveled to South America\, to São Paolo and Buenos Aires organizing exhibitions. Returning to Japan\, he participated in the Artist Union and its artist-led symposia and exhibitions\, and from 1977\, the Japan Asia Africa Latin America Artist Association\, JAALA\, with a focus on solidarity with “third world” artists and activists.The event will accompany an exhibition of works and ephemera from the Yoshida Yoshie Collection\, preserving significant portions of Yoshida’s library and archival materials.The Yoshida Yoshie Collection and this event are thanks to the kind support of Kakuya and Atsushi Yoshida and the Yoshida family\, the Charles E.

SUMMARY:Mario Biogioli - "Beyond Publish or Perish: Metrics and the New Ecologies of Academic Misconduct"
DESCRIPTION:Mario Biagioli – School of Law\, Science & Technology Studies Program\, Department of History\, UC Davis. \nAcademic misconduct has traditionally been tied to the stress generated by the “publish or perish” culture and\, more recently\, to the new opportunities offered by electronic publishing.  I argue\, instead\, that misconduct is undergoing a radical qualitative transformation\, adapting itself to modern metrics-based regimes of academic evaluation and the new incentives and opportunities they provide.  We are transitioning\, so to speak\, from “publish or perish” to “impact or perish.”  These changes are affecting the practices as well as the discourse and conceptualization of misconduct.  Traditional definitions of misconduct were rooted in oppositions between truth and falsehood\, right and wrong\, honest mistake and fabrication\, but some of the new metrics-based misconduct could be seen as a form of gaming rather than a clear violation of ethical norms or laws.  The new metrics-based forms of misconduct are thus challenging us to redefine misconduct\, but they are also\, at the same time\, asking us to rethink what we mean by “publication.”

SUMMARY:Vinay Lal - "The Politics of Internet Hinduism"
DESCRIPTION:Hinduism’s adherents\, particularly in the United States\, have displayed in recent years a marked tendency to turn towards various forms of digital media\, and in particular the internet\, to forge new forms of Hindu identity\, furnish Hinduism with a purportedly more coherent and monotheistic form\, engage in debates on American multiculturalism\, and partake of the protocols of citizenship in the digital age. The aspiration to create linkages across Hindu groups worldwide\, embrace Hindus in remoter diasporic settings who are viewed as having been ‘left behind’\, and create something of global Hindu consciousness\, has a fundamental relationship to India’s ascendancy as an ‘emerging economy’ and the confidence with which its Hindu elites increasingly view the world and their prospects for prosperity and political gain. In this lecture\, I shall focus on some contemporary phenomena\, among them the deployment of the internet in battles over the content of history textbooks in California and attempts to secure ‘the dignity of Hinduism’ by groups such as American Hindus Against Defamation (AHAD). As I shall argue\, a revolutionary internet Hinduism is being forged which transforms an old faith into a worldwide religion\, and brings pliant Hindus\, both in India and in the older Indian diasporas of the nineteenth century\, to an awareness of the global strengths of a ‘modern’ Hindu community.
