SUMMARY:Vivien Hamilton “Competing Virtues of Measurement: Physics\, Medicine and Quantification in Early X-ray Therapy”
DESCRIPTION:History of Science\, Medicine\, and Technology \nFall 2019 Colloquium \nAll talks are held in Bunche 5288 at 4pm unless otherwise noted. \nNovember 25: Vivien Hamilton\, UCLA \n“Competing Virtues of Measurement: Physics\, Medicine and Quantification in Early X-ray Therapy” \nAbstract \nVery soon after the discovery of x-rays in 1895\, enthusiastic doctors began to use the new radiation to treat cancer and various skin diseases. This early period of x-ray therapy has often been portrayed as chaotic and exploratory\, largely because there were so many different methods for measuring a dose of x-rays. In the usual story\, the chaos was contained and progress was made possible when the international radiological community settled on a standard unit of measurement\, the röntgen\, in 1928. This unit was strongly preferred by the physicists working in the x-ray community\, who dismissed the methods preferred by their medical colleagues as rough and inadequate.  Rather than accepting this judgment\, this talk will ask us to look more closely at the ways in which x-rays were being measured in clinical spaces prior to 1928\, arguing that physicists and doctors evaluated the same measuring practices so differently because each group desired something quite different from the act of measurement. For physicists\, the key virtues of quantitative measurement were precision and standardization\, while doctors desired accuracy and repeatability within their own practice. The physicists’ vision ultimately won\, demonstrating that close collaboration between experts from different disciplines does not always result in compromise or mutual transformation. In this case\, the physicists’ values played an increasingly large role in shaping the emerging culture of radiology

SUMMARY:Jaimie D. Crumley - "Freedom Feelings: Womanism\, Black Feminism\, and The Politics of Black Women’s Liberation"
DESCRIPTION:Jaimie Crumley’s research explores black freedom in antebellum America as seen through the lives and writings of black Christian women. She focuses on women who taught and lectured in Boston\, Philadelphia\, New York\, Washington\, D.C. and England. These women provide insight into the role of Christian spirituality in shaping freedom for black women. Their histories underscore the complexities of race\, gender\, sexuality\, and religiosity in antebellum United States. Her paper will be emailed a week in advance to members of the History of Women\, Men\, and Sexuality working group. \nTo RSVP or be added to the listserv\, please email Rebeca Martinez: rmartnz165@g.ucla.edu.

SUMMARY:William Sewell\, "A Concrete History of Abstraction: Explaining the Emergence of Civic Equality in Eighteenth-Century France"
DESCRIPTION:A Concrete History of Abstraction: Explaining the Emergence of Civic Equality in Eighteenth-Century France \nWilliam Sewell \nProfessor Emeritus of Political Science and History The University of Chicago \nThursday\, October 10\, 2019 \n4-6pm Bunche 6275 \nOne of the most important changes introduced by the French Revolution was the codification of civic equality as a fundamental right. In the profoundly hierarchical society that was eighteenth-century France\, establishing a norm of abstract equality among citizens was an extremely radical act\, one that undermined existing assumptions about how politics and everyday social relations should be structured. Yet the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen was passed virtually without dissent by a National Assembly that included many aristocrats and clerics\, whose privileges it abolished. Dr. Sewell argues that the widespread acceptance in 1789 of this abstract civic equality had experiential roots in the transformations introduced by early capitalism’s growing commodification of social relations. In this talk\, and in the forthcoming book on which it is based\, Dr. Sewell traces out such tendential abstraction in three distinct spheres of eighteenth-century French social experience: the burgeoning commercial relations in French cities\, the social world of the philosophes\, and the royal administration’s widespread adoption of political-economic reasoning. It was\, Dr. Sewell argues\, the concrete experience of increasingly abstract social relations in the decades before the Revolution that made civic equality thinkable and so widely acceptable in 1789. \nWilliam H. Sewell Jr.is the Frank P. Hixon Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Political Science and History at the University of Chicago and a resident fellow of the Chicago Center for Contemporary Theory. His research focuses on the intersections between history and social theory and he is currently working on a project on the social and cultural history of capitalism in eighteenth-century France.

SUMMARY:Ryan Hilliard - "Sexual Honor\, Social Capital\, and the Single Woman in Eighteenth-Century Paris"
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Ryan Hilliard explores how single women in eighteenth-century Paris acknowledged\, negotiated with\, and responded to prescriptive sexual norms in their daily lives and in moments of crisis. Unmarried women utilized legal action to protect their reputations against accusations of sexual impropriety. In the complaints they filed with Parisian police commissioners\, single women linked public perceptions of sexual honor with community membership\, financial stability\, and social status. In doing so\, they represented sexual honor as an important facet of their social capital. Ryan explicates how single women attempted to defend themselves against injurious claims and interrogates why their enemies employed this specific type of attack during interpersonal conflicts. Moving from pervasive discourse to individual disputes\, Ryan positions unmarried women as proactive participants in the eighteenth-century realm of public opinion. \nRyan Hilliard is a doctoral candidate in the UCLA Department of History whose research focuses on the history of women\, gender\, and sexuality in early modern France. Her dissertation\, entitled “By Choice or By Circumstance: Single Women in Early Modern France\,” explores the social and cultural history of unmarried women living in Paris during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. \nLunch will be served. Please RSVP to Ryan Hilliard (rhilliard@ucla.edu) by Tuesday\, May 28\, 2019 if you plan to attend and include any dietary restrictions.
