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: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: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: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:Claudio Fogu\, "The Fishing Net and the Spider Web: Mediterranean Imaginaries and the Making of Italians"
DESCRIPTION:This is the third 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. \nClaudio Fogu\, The Fishing Net and the Spider Web: Mediterranean Imaginaries and the Making of Italians (Palgrave\, 2021) \n“This book explores the role of Mediterranean imaginaries in one of the preeminent tropes of Italian history: the formation or ‘making of’ Italians. While previous scholarship on the construction of Italian identity has often focused too narrowly on the territorial notion of the nation-state\, and over-identified Italy with its capital\, Rome\, this book highlights the importance of the Mediterranean Sea to the development of Italian collective imaginaries. From this perspective\, this book re-interprets key historical processes and actors in the history of modern Italy\, and thereby challenges mainstream interpretations of Italian collective identity as weak or incomplete. Ultimately\, it argues that Mediterranean imaginaries acted as counterweights to the solidification of a ‘national’ Italian identity\, and still constitute alternative but equally viable modes of collective belonging.” \nZoom Registration Portal: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAoc-Gqpj4uHNP95cX92KF0uyOSkEM84Tcw \n
