SUMMARY:Bharat Venkat\, “At the Limits of Cure.”
DESCRIPTION:Spring 2021 Colloquium \nMay 17 | 4PM – 5PM PST \nSpeaker Bharat Venkat (UCLA) \n“At the Limits of Cure” \nWhat does it mean to be cured\, and what does it mean for a cure to come undone? This talk draws from my forthcoming book At the Limits of Cure (Duke University Press\, fall 2021)\, which focuses on the history and present of tuberculosis treatment in India. Drawing on ethnographic and historical materials\, as well as film\, fiction\, and folklore\, I examine cure in its various iterations—from sanatoriums and gold therapy to travel and antibiotics—as well as how such cures come up against their limits. Through an anthropological history\, this book explores a range of curative imaginations that have taken form around tuberculosis: in debates contrasting idyllic sanatoriums and crowded prisons\, through which freedom in its many forms became envisioned as a kind of therapy; in the itineraries of ships filled with coolies and soldiers seeking work and treatment across the British empire; in the networks of scientists who tested antibiotics in India as a means of asking whether poverty really mattered to therapeutic success; in clinics where patients were told that they were cured only to undergo treatment again and again; and in the reworking of midcentury anxieties about population growth in relation to contemporary drug resistance in India’s urban centers. A central contention of this book–and my talk–is that our imagination of cure shapes our understanding of time: not only the temporality underlying histories of science and medicine\, but also\, the temporality of therapy itself. \n  \nRegistration Link

SUMMARY:Madison Felman-Panagotacos\, "La Difunta Correa"
DESCRIPTION:May 12 | 2PM – 3PM \n“La Difunta Correa” \nA Workshop with PhD Candidate from the Spanish and Portuguese department\, Madison Felman-Panagotacos (UCLA) \n  \nThis paper will trace the tumultuous popularization of the devotion to la Difunta Correa\, \nconsidering reverence for her in conjunction with changing standards of what constitutes \nargentinidad and femininity. Examining cultural productions depicting la Difunta Correa that were \ncreated ion during moments of political upheaval – modernization\, the rise of Peronism\, and the \nmilitary dictatorship – lends insight to the values considered as inherent to Argentine citizenship \nat those particular moments. Rewritings of the legend of la Difunta Correa are calculated \nreimaginings of what constitutes citizenship and femininity\, highlighting exclusionary practices in \nnation building that are still present today. \n  \nPlease contact rmartnz165@g.ucla.edu for the Zoom link and paper.

SUMMARY:Stephen Bittner\, "Whites and Reds: A History of Wine in the Lands of Tsar and Commisar"
DESCRIPTION:This is the second of a series of book talks hosted by Brian Griffith that\, in one way or another\, impinge upon the history of Europe’s interwar crisis. These book talks will be open to members both of UCLA’s campus community and the general public\, and pre-registration is required. \nStephen Bittner\, Whites and Reds: A History of Wine in the Lands of Tsar and Commisar (Oxford\, 2021) \n“Whites and Reds: A History of Wine in the Lands of Tsar and Commissar tells the story of Russia’s encounter with viniculture and winemaking. Rooted in the early-seventeenth century\, embraced by Peter the Great\, and then magnified many times over by the annexation of the indigenous wine economies and cultures of Georgia\, Crimea\, and Moldova in the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries\, viniculture and winemaking became an important indicator of Russia’s place at the European table. While the Russian Revolution in 1917 left many of the empire’s vineyards and wineries in ruins\, it did not alter the political and cultural meanings attached to wine. Stalin himself embraced champagne as part of the good life of socialism\, and the Soviet Union became a winemaking superpower in its own right\, trailing only Spain\, Italy\, and France in the volume of its production. Whites and Reds illuminates the ideas\, controversies\, political alliances\, technologies\, business practices\, international networks\, and\, of course\, the growers\, vintners\, connoisseurs\, and consumers who shaped the history of wine in the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union over more than two centuries. Because wine was domesticated by virtue of imperialism\, its history reveals many of the instabilities and peculiarities of the Russian and Soviet empires. Over two centuries\, the production and consumption patterns of peripheral territories near the Black Sea and in the Caucasus became a hallmark of Russian and Soviet civilizational identity and cultural refinement. Wine in Russia was always more than something to drink.” \nZoom Registration Portal: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYtde-pqD0vGteO7xk_YPpsnWGw5BTc9ufC

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Schiffler\, "Snow Eggs: Situated Tastes and Partial Archives"
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Schiffler\, PhD student in Theater and Performance Studies\, UCLA \n“Snow Eggs: Situated Tastes and Partial Archives” \nThis talk traces a history of Snow Eggs\, from its inception in American gastronomic history to a contemporary Los Angeles performance. Beginning with the recipe from 18th century Chef James Hemings\, enslaved to President Jefferson\, a study of Snow Eggs reveals the emerging technologies and relations between French and American gastronomy. Extending to the 2020 dinner series ‘Hemings & Hercules’ created by Chef Martin N. Draluck at Hatchet Hall in Los Angeles centers reenactment as a historical method that reveals historical\, ecological\, and technological entanglements. This talk challenges the dominant culinary narrative of the whiteness of French-American gastronomy\, to position American cookbooks adapting French cuisine to be read\, and performed\, through the legacy of Hemings’ contribution to American foodways. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Dominique Kircher Reill\, "Fiume Crisis: Life in the Wake of the Habsburg Empire"
DESCRIPTION:This is the first of a series of book talks hosted by Brian Griffith that\, in one way or another\, impinge upon the history of Europe’s interwar crisis. These book talks will be open to members both of UCLA’s campus community and the general public\, and pre-registration is required. \nDominique Kircher Reill\, Fiume Crisis: Life in the Wake of the Habsburg Empire (Harvard\, 2020) \n“The Fiume Crisis recasts what we know about the birth of fascism\, the rise of nationalism\, and the fall of empire after World War I by telling the story of the three-year period when the Adriatic city of Fiume (today Rijeka\, in Croatia) generated an international crisis. In 1919 the multicultural former Habsburg city was occupied by the paramilitary forces of the flamboyant poet-soldier Gabriele D’Annunzio\, who aimed to annex the territory to Italy and became an inspiration to Mussolini. Many local Italians supported the effort\, nurturing a standard tale of nationalist fanaticism. However\, Dominique Kirchner Reill shows that practical realities\, not nationalist ideals\, were in the driver’s seat. Support for annexation was largely a result of the daily frustrations of life in a “ghost state” set adrift by the fall of the empire. D’Annunzio’s ideology and proto-fascist charisma notwithstanding\, what the people of Fiume wanted was prosperity\, which they associated with the autonomy they had enjoyed under Habsburg sovereignty. In these twilight years between the world that was and the world that would be\, many across the former empire sought to restore the familiar forms of governance that once supported them. To the extent that they turned to nation-states\, it was not out of zeal for nationalist self-determination but in the hope that these states would restore the benefits of cosmopolitan empire. Against the too-smooth narrative of postwar nationalism\, The Fiume Crisis demonstrates the endurance of the imperial imagination and carves out an essential place for history from below.” \nZoom Registration Portal: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwkf-qqpj4oHNfm0GbVXk0y6JrZxt8smPvs

SUMMARY:Gideon Manning\, “False Images Do Not Lie: Medicine\, Editors’ Decisions\, and the Case of René Descartes’s Treatise on Man.”
DESCRIPTION:Spring 2021 Colloquium \nApril 19 | 4PM – 5PM PST \nGideon Manning (Cedars-Sinai) \n“False Images Do Not Lie: Medicine\, Editors’ Decisions\, and the Case of René Descartes’s Treatise on Man” \nHow to discuss the role of illustrations in the early modern period in a way that is responsive to the concepts and vocabulary of the time remains elusive. In this talk\, which builds from the medical tradition outward\, I will suggest that the technical language of historia-actio-usus (history-action-use)\, which originates in Aristotle and Galen and is then standardized among anatomists in the sixteenth and seventeenth century\, provides us what has been missing. I will specifically consider the case of René Descartes’s posthumously published Treatise on Man\, which appeared in Latin translation in 1662 and then in French in 1664. The original manuscript of the Treatise contained perhaps one or two images\, but the text called for many more. Accordingly\, the editors had to make numerous decisions. I will demonstrate how the language of historia-actio-usus\, which Descartes also used\, allows us to better understand the editors’ decisions and the many differences between the illustrations in the 1662 and 1664 editions of same text. \n Zoom RSVP Link

SUMMARY:Barbara Krauthamer\, "Liberty’s Diaspora: Black Women in the Age of the American Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Krauthamer\, Professor of History\, UMass Amherst \n“Liberty’s Diaspora: Black Women in the Age of the American Revolution” \nThis presentation examines the lives of three Black women who had been enslaved in the British North American colonies at the time of the American Revolution. The presentation reflects on their lives by considering the ways historians have navigated the archival gaps and silences about Black women’s presence. The presentation follows the women’s voluntary and forced migrations\, their Diasporic routes\, within the Americas and across the Atlantic. This focus on Black women’s routes of resistance\, liberation and deportation adds a new dimension to the more familiar and male dominated stories of slavery\, Black Loyalists and the American Revolution. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Gabriel de Avilez Rocha\, "East Atlantic Crossings in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries"
DESCRIPTION:Gabriel de Avilez Rocha\, Vasco da Gama Assistant Professor of History and Portuguese and Brazilian Studies\, Brown University \n“East Atlantic Crossings in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries” \nAtlantic historians tend to understand transoceanic crossings along an east-west axis\, with people and goods seen as traversing the space between Africa and/or Europe\, on the one hand\, and the Americas\, on the other. Yet in the early decades of the sixteenth century\, even as the broader contours of Atlantic circumnavigation were becoming more evident to members of various maritime communities\, impressions of transoceanic mobility did not yet assume the east-west axis as normative. Frequently traveled thoroughfares linking Seville to the Canaries\, São Tomé to the Azores\, and Cabo Verde to Rouen were themselves widely seen as transoceanic in scope\, even if they hewed to the eastern side of the Atlantic. The weight of tradition lay behind this conventional wisdom. Maritime routes spanning the Gulf of Guinea\, the Atlantic islands\, and Iberia had since the mid-fifteenth century established patterns of voluntary and coerced movement that continued to be integral to an expanding Atlantic circuit even after 1492. In considering the shifting yet continually vital role of the eastern Atlantic corridor\, this talk seeks to recover a largely overlooked geographic and temporal dimension of early Atlantic history. It does so by bringing together individual stories of conflict\, negotiation\, and struggle waged by a diverse range of individuals who interacted\, in different ways\, with the breadth and dynamism of the east Atlantic in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. \nRegister

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

SUMMARY:Sarah Johnson\, "Between the Archive and the Speculative Turn: Notes toward a Biography of Moreau de Saint-Méry." - POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:This talk has been POSTPONED. Future date TBD. \nThis talk considers the process of writing about the life and work of the Caribbean philosophe Moreau de Saint-Méry (1750-1819).  A lawyer\, printer\, naturalist\, and translator who was at the forefront of revolutionary politics on two continents\, Moreau was also a slaveholder who wrote about ideals of liberty even as he trafficked in human beings.  An ardent defender of slavery as an institution\, he nonetheless left some of the most detailed accounts of the social practices of enslaved women and men in the eighteenth-century Americas.  This talk explores who knew what\, and how\, using as an example entries from his manuscript Repértoire des Notions Coloniales that I have refashioned into my own Encyclopédie noire.  This work reconsiders how his production of colonial knowledge appears when assessed from alternate points of view.  In a similar vein\, I discuss the process and politics that surround a parallel project produced by Moreau’s brother-in-law\, Baudry des Lozières.  My methodology embraces the value of informed speculation—through chapters that experiment with form\, visual imagery\, and narrative voice—as a way to foreground the people of African descent who undergirded Moreau’s work on multiple levels\, from those who managed his household to those whose knowledge about language\, labor\, and community became the basis of his work.  I build upon fragmentary archival evidence to surmount the disproportionate influence of planters and administrators on Caribbean historiography.

SUMMARY:Discussion of "The Notorious Mrs. Nobles: Jim Crow Gender and "Insanity" in Late Nineteenth-Century Georgia"
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion of Rebekka Michaelsen’s article-in-progress “The Notorious Mrs. Nobles: Jim Crow Gender and “Insanity” in Late Nineteenth-Century Georgia” \nThis article-in-progress recovers the case of Elizabeth Nobles\, an elderly\, poor white woman who conspired with her Black farm hand to murder her husband in rural Georgia in 1895. While other historians have demonstrated the importance of race and gender to the Jim Crow South\, this paper shows how notions of disability\, in this case “insanity\,” reinforced Jim Crow. While\, for Mrs. Nobles\, “insanity” became a reputable legal defense to save her life as well as a rhetorical apology for her transgression of Jim Crow racial and gender hierarchies\, “insanity” could simultaneously serve as way of “othering” and “defeminizing” Black women. \nDate: February 10th\, 11:30AM – 12:30PM \nThe zoom link and paper will be sent out a week in advance. Please email Rebeca Martinez at rmartnz165@g.ucla.edu to receive this information.

SUMMARY:Sasha Turner\, "Negotiating Slavery and Motherhood on the Terrain of Feelings."
DESCRIPTION:This presentation centers on the story of Abba\, an enslaved woman who was the mother of an unusually large family in eighteenth century Jamaica. Abba had been pregnant thirteen times. She had ten live births and one still birth. We come to know Abba’s story through the diaries of Thomas Thistlewood\, notorious among scholars of slavery because of his practice of diarizing how he daily tortured the enslaved. In addition to her large family\, Abba stands out in the diaries because\, despite Thistlewood’s notoriety as a sadistic enslaver\, he whips Abba only three times in almost thirty years of claiming power over her life and body. By contrast\, Thistlewood was exceptionally generous to Abba providing her with well needed material goods to support her family and permitting her to perform spiritual rituals\, outlawed a felony\, to grieve the death of her children. Reading Abba’s life against the 18th Century burgeoning culture of sensibility\, including Thistlewood’s own displays of sympathy and grief to white community members\, this discussion explores Abba’s deployment of feelings in negotiating her condition. How did Abba’s displays of feeling mirror Thistlewood’s\, and what did Abba seek to gain by consistently exhibiting feelings in Thistlewood presence? \nRSVP here
