SUMMARY:Friends of Princeton University Library Small Talk with Nina Khrushcheva *98
DESCRIPTION:Russia\, Ukraine\, and the Perils of History \nJoin the Friends of PUL for their monthly Small Talk\, which will feature Nina Khrushcheva *98\, Professor of International Affairs\, The New School. \nWhen Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a “special military operation” in Ukraine last February what were his reasoning and his endgame? Did he want to punish Ukraine for turning towards the West by destabilizing its government\, destroying its military infrastructure as well as parts of the country in its totality? Did he want to challenge the West for its perceived “unjust” world domination waging his own “just” war on this\, what he often calls\, “brotherly nation”? In a year since the conflict began there are still debates as to what the Kremlin’s exact motivations had been\, and how far the Russian president may go to achieve his goals. Putin’s actual reasons for invading Ukraine are much less political or pragmatic than one should expect in 21st century geopolitics\, but there are relevant instances of history\, both czarist and Soviet\, that have been driving Putin’s current actions. In this context\, the events of October 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis\, which recently marked its sixtieth anniversary\, provides for a useful comparison to the Ukraine crisis today. \nIn-person attendance is reserved for members of the Friends of PUL\, but the virtual component is open to all. Registration is required: https://libcal.princeton.edu/event/9860826

SUMMARY:Celebrating the Life and Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Join the Arts Council of Princeton to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. \nWe will begin the morning with remarks from our 2023 featured speaker\, Tina Campt – noted Black feminist theorist of visual culture and contemporary art and Roger S. Berlind ’52 Professor in the Humanities at Princeton University – during a community bagel and coffee breakfast. \nFamilies are invited to pick up a copy of an updated limited-edition coloring book featuring prominent Black residents of Princeton from history\, including accomplished business owners\, politicians\, educators and influential women\, in addition to Martin Luther King Jr.’s visits to campus in the 1960s\, designed in partnership with the Historical Society of Princeton\, neighborhood historian Shirley Satterfield\, and Princeton University Wintersession. \nHelp us help those in need: bring canned or boxed non-perishables for our food drive. All donations will benefit Princeton Nursery School\, a non-profit organization providing a quality preschool education program and child care for families in need\, providing a diverse environment and a broad array of support services. \nCo-sponsored by the Department of African American Studies\, the Humanities Council\, and the Office of Campus Engagement. \nAbout the speaker: \nTina Campt is Roger S. Berlind ’52 Professor of Humanities\, holding a joint appointment between the Department of Art and Archaeology and the Lewis Center for the Arts at Princeton University. Campt is a Black feminist theorist of visual culture and contemporary art and lead convener of the Practicing Refusal Collective and the Sojourner Project. She began her career as a historian of modern Germany\, earning a Ph.D. in history from Cornell University. She is one of the founding scholars of Black European Studies\, and her early work theorized gender\, racial\, and diasporic formation in Black communities in Europe and southern Africa\, with an emphasis on the role of vernacular photography in historical interpretation. Campt’s more recent scholarship bridges the divide between vernacular image-making in Black diasporic communities and the interventions of Black contemporary artists in reshaping how we see ourselves and our societies. Her teaching reflects her ongoing interest in exploring the multiple sensory registers of images and the importance of attending to their sonic and haptic registers. \nCampt has published five books and received the 2020 Photography Catalogue of the Year Award from Paris Photo and Aperture Foundation for her co-edited collection\, Imagining Everyday Life: Engagements with Vernacular Photography (with Marianne Hirsch\, Gil Hochberg and Brian Wallis\, Steidl). Campt has held faculty positions at Brown University\, Barnard College-Columbia University\, Duke University\, University of California-Santa Cruz\, and the Technical University of Berlin.

SUMMARY:Compiling Magic: the Scribe at Work
DESCRIPTION:For the past seven years I have been reediting\, translating\, and studying the magical handbooks from Roman Egypt preserved on papyrus. A magical formulary is a collection of instructions for the performance of different spells and rituals\, generally designed for private use. These “recipe” books systematize traditions of knowledge developed to deal with a wide range of everyday human concerns. Such instructions for ritual procedures (praxeis) are not usually considered alongside other genres considered more “scientific\,” such as medical\, astronomical\, and mathematical­ compilations.  In fact\, “ambitious magical formularies” are similar to these genres in their effort to compile and organize technical knowledge and have the invaluable advantage of surviving in the form of a considerable corpus of papyri\, allowing us to observe scribal practices of compilation and transmission. In this paper I will present a methodology to uncover and understand these ancient practices of compilation – storage\, standardization\, manipulation and presentation– derived from scribal observation in the magical formularies. \nClick here for the Zoom registration link

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Forum: Introduction to Project-Based Humanities Grantseeking
DESCRIPTION:The Office of the Dean for Research and the Humanities Council invite humanities scholars (faculty\, postdocs\, staff\, graduate students\, and humanities-focused researchers) to an information session to learn about strategies for project-based grantseeking. Unlike individual research projects that are the norm in the humanities\, project-based grantseeking is typically collaborative\, interdisciplinary\, and complex. We want to de-mystify the process of developing and launching project-based research\, and applying for internal or external funding that may be needed to support that research. Scholars at all levels of experience are invited to attend. The event will be held in person.

SUMMARY:Justice for Animals
DESCRIPTION:Martha C. Nussbaum is the Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics\, appointed in the Philosophy Department and the Law School of the University of Chicago. She gave the 2016 Jefferson Lecture for the National Endowment for the Humanities and won the 2016 Kyoto Prize in Arts and Philosophy. The 2018 Berggruen Prize in Philosophy and Culture\, and the 2020 Holberg Prize. These three prizes are regarded as the most prestigious awards available in fields not eligible for a Nobel. She has written more than twenty-two books\, including Upheavals of Thought: The Intelligence of Emotions; Anger and Forgiveness: Resentment\, Generosity\, Justice; Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities; and The Monarchy of Fear. \nKnown as one of the world’s most influential philosophers and humanists\, Martha Nussbaum in her latest book Justice for Animals\, provides a revolutionary approach to animal rights\, ethics\, and law. \nFrom dolphins to crows\, elephants to octopuses\, Nussbaum examines the entire animal kingdom\, showcasing the lives of animals with wonder\, awe\, and compassion to understand how we can create a world in which human beings are truly friends of animals\, not exploiters or users. All animals should have a shot at flourishing in their own way. Humans have a collective duty to face and solve animal harm. An urgent call to action and a manual for change\, Nussbaum’s groundbreaking theory directs politics and law to help us meet our ethical responsibilities as no book has done before. \nPlease Note: Copies of Martha’s new book\, Justice for Animals: Our Collective Responsibility will be handed out to the first 200 attendees. \nLocation\nMcCosh Hall 50\nTo attend this event virtually\, CLICK HERE \nAudience\nFree and open to the public

SUMMARY:Communities of piety from Late Antiquity to Byzantium
DESCRIPTION:The rise of the holy man and the development of monasticism are one of the defining features of Late Antiquity that also shaped the subsequent centuries of medieval Byzantium. While theologians and other authors tend to insist on the superiority of monasteries as a space for the practice of virtues\, men and women of lay status also found ways to express their piety in communal settings. There is a wide range of evidence across the centuries that can demonstrate how communities of piety were shaped and organized\, thus calling into question the assumed divide between the holy and the secular life. \nClaudia Rapp has been Professor of Byzantine Studies\, University of Vienna\, where she moved after almost 20 years at UCLA. She is the interim Director of the Institute for Medieval Research at the Austrian Academy of Sciences\, Member of several learned academies\, editorial and advisory boards\, and has held numerous fellowships (including at the Institute for Advanced Study) and visiting professorships. \nHer research focuses on social and cultural history\, often from the angle of religious history and manuscript studies. Holy Bishops in Late Antiquity: Christian Leadership in an Age of Transition\, published in 2005\, was re-issued in paperback in 2013. Her most recent book\, Brother-Making in Late Antiquity and Byzantium: Monks\, Laymen and Christian Ritual (2016) has led to the formation of the Euchologia Project at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Funding through the Wittgenstein-Award has enabled her to assemble a team of scholars for the joint investigation of Mobility\, Microstructures and Personal Agency. She is the Scholarly Director of the Sinai Palimpsests Project.

SUMMARY:Seduced by Story: The Use and Abuse of Narrative
DESCRIPTION:The scholar and literary critic Peter Brooks’s new book is a reckoning with today’s flourishing cult of story. We invite you to a presentation and discussion. \nJoin us at Labyrinth or click here to register for the livestream. \nForty years after publishing his seminal work Reading for the Plot\, his important contribution to what came to be known as the “narrative turn” in contemporary criticism and philosophy\, Brooks returns to question the unquestioning fashion in which story is now embraced as an excuse or explanation and the fact that every brand or politician comes equipped with one. In a discussion that ranges from The Girl on the Train to legal argument\, Brooks reminds us that among the powers of narrative is the power to deceive. \n“A rhapsody to the partial suspension of disbelief that allows us to immerse ourselves in novels\, but simultaneously and most crucially\, a brilliant intervention against the complete suspension of disbelief that allows a citizenry to succumb to conspiracy theories\, false-flag narratives\, authoritarian fictions. An eloquent and triumphant culmination of Peter Brooks’s lifelong inquiry into the aesthetic and ethical intersection of literature\, psychoanalysis\, law\, and politics. Impossibly good.”  —David Shields \nPeter Brooks is the author of several influential books\, including The Melodramatic Imagination\, Reading for the Plot\, Psychoanalysis and Storytelling\, Troubling Confessions\, Realist Vision\, Henry James Goes to Paris\, and Flaubert in the Ruins of Paris\, as well as of two novels\, World Elsewhere and The Emperor’s Body. He is Sterling Professor Emeritus of Comparative Literature at Yale. Brigid Doherty holds a joint appointment in German and Art & Archaeology at Princeton University. Her research and teaching focus on the interdisciplinary study of twentieth-century art and literature\, with special emphasis on the history of German modernism and on relationships among the visual arts\, literature\, and aesthetic and psychoanalytic theories. She is currently completing a book on contemporary artist Rosemarie Trockel’s “Rorschach Pictures”.

SUMMARY:On the origins of Cikunda\, "a language without a land"  (Presentation of the OriKunda project)
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I will present the OriKunda project (April 2023 – March 2027\, funded by the National Agency for Research\, France)\, which aims to review the unique history of the Cikunda people (pronounced /ʧikunda/)\, from its genesis until today\, through their language. Originally\, the Cikunda were troops of Bantu-speaking slave soldiers from different communities who defended the “prazos” territories in central Mozambique during the colonial era. From a common social identity came an ethnic identity involving the creation of a language\, Cikunda\, resulting from intra-Bantu dialect and language mixing. With the collapse of the “prazo” system in the 19th century and the emancipation of the slaves\, the Cikunda retreated westwards to the confluence of the Zambezi and Luangwa rivers\, which today corresponds to the border area between Zambia\, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. The available sources on the Cikunda are merely historical\, notably with the studies of historian Allen Isaacman. However\, the unusual history of the Cikunda raises fascinating questions from a linguistic point of view\, with possibly major repercussions for the historical narrative of this community. The OriKunda project aims to study the Cikunda language from a historical perspective\, falling within three subdisciplines of linguistics\, i.e. historical linguistics\, anthropological linguistics and sociolinguistics. \n \nRozenn Guérois is a researcher at LLACAN (African Languages and Cultures Laboratory) at CNRS in Paris.  She received her Ph.D. in Linguistics in 2015 from Université Lyon 2 Lumière\, an M.A. in Linguistics from Université Paris 7 Diderot\, an M.A. and Licence (B.A.) in English and Portuguese Language and Literature from Université Rennes 2. \n  \nRozenn specializes in language documentation and description\, with a focus on the Bantu languages of Mozambique\, notably Cuwabo\, Sena\, and Cikunda. Her work involves intensive fieldwork\, and extends to morphosyntax\, comparative Bantu linguistics\, typology\, and contact linguistics. She has participated in two international projects on Bantu morphosyntax at SOAS (London) and at the university of Ghent. She is the recipient of a grant from the French National Research Agency (ANR) to document the Cikunda language in its historical and sociolinguistic contexts. Since 2020\, she has been a member of the editorial board of the journal Linguistique et Langues Africaines (LLA). To learn more about her research\, visit https://llacan.cnrs.fr/p_guerois.php.

SUMMARY:Two Writers on Writing: Considering Class\, Play\, Power\, and Language in the Essay and the Poem
DESCRIPTION:Join us as two exceptional young writers interview each other about the questions that animate them and about their respective crafts. \nHybrid event held at Labyrinth; click here to register for the livestream. \nHilary Plum’s new book\, Hole Studies\, is a book about care and the forms it may take. It’s an essay collection on writing and labor\, art and activism\, attention as a transformative practice\, difference and collaboration\, adjuncting and the margins of the academy\, whiteness and its weapons\, professionalization and its discontents\, the radical importance of surprise\, friendship at work\, the self and its public and private modes. Essays explore the music of the Swet Shop Boys\, the literature of the US’s brutal war in Iraq\, the career of Sinéad O’Connor\, the aesthetics of the Dirtbag Left\, the legacies of the “war on terror\,” feminism on the job\, and illness in America. The book is an intimate document and a critical guide. \nIt’s midnight. The anti-heroine in the poems collected in Raphel’s Our Dark Academia is perpetually working\, trying to work it out. She’s lonely but onscreen. Meanwhile\, is this new sensation grief or groin pull? Who’s in the waiting room? Is it too late to join the symposium? To buy organic greens? To save up? Save anything? With unsettling humor\, Raphel traces the suspect filigrees of the “late late stage”: advanced degrees\, wellness trends\, inherited trinketry\, GIFs of inspo lynx. Sliding with formal dynamism from sonnet crown to sestina\, Wiki page to personal statement\, crossword to quiz\, Our Dark Academia captures the exuberant florid panicked acrobatics of this time at the edge of time. \nHilary Plum is the author of several books\, most recently the novel Strawberry Fields\, winner of the Fence Modern Prize in Prose. Her poetry collection\, Excisions\, is forthcoming from Black Lawrence. She teaches fiction\, nonfiction\, and editing & publishing at Cleveland State University and in the NEOMFA program\, and she serves as associate director of the CSU Poetry Center. Recent work has appeared in Granta\, College Literature\, American Poetry Review\, Fence\, and elsewhere. Adrienne Raphel is the author of Thinking Inside the Box: Adventures with Crosswords and the Puzzling People Who Can’t Live Without Them and of the poetry collection What Was It For\, selected by Cathy Park Hong as the winner of the Black Box Poetry Prize. Her essays\, poetry\, and criticism appear in The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, The Paris Review\, Poetry\, The New Republic\, and The Atlantic\, among other publications. She teaches in the Writing Program at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Sick Architecture
DESCRIPTION:Architecture and sickness are tightly intertwined. Architectural discourse always weaves itself through theories of body and brain\, constructing the architect as a kind of doctor and the client as a patient. Architecture has been portrayed as both a form of prevention and cure for thousands of years. Sick Architecture began as a series of graduate seminars led by Professor Beatriz Colomina highlighting a topic that has shaped our lives since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. For their research\, doctoral students explored a range of case studies in which architecture\, urbanization\, infrastructure\, and spatial discourse were strongly influenced by concern for sickness\, health\, and medicine. \nPRESENTED BY\nProfessor Beatriz Colomina\, Architecture \nWITH CASES STUDIES BY\nAngela H. Brown\, Art and Archaeology\nMarie de Testa\, Architecture\nDante Furioso\, Architecture\nAngelika Joseph\, Architecture\nShivani Shedde\, Architecture\nMaxwell Smith-Holmes\, Architecture \nOpen to students\, faculty\, visiting scholars\, staff and invited guests. Lunch will be provided while supplies last.

SUMMARY:The Kids Aren’t Alright: Afro-German Afrofuturism and the Fight for Futurity
DESCRIPTION:Drawing on theoretical models culled from Black (German) studies\, Afrofuturism\, performance studies and queer theory\, in this talk I will analyze examples Black German artists’ engagement with “future-making” through fantasy and speculative and science fiction. From the “Afronauts” painting cycle (1999) of visual artist\, Daniel Kojo Schrade\, and the poetry of Philipp Khabo Köpsell\, to the prose of Sharon Dodua Otoo and the plays and performances of Olivia Wenzel and Simone Dede Ayivi\, Black German artists have increasingly employed Afrofuturist tropes in order to critique Eurocentricism\, uncover German racism and confront German colonialism. For centuries\, Black Germans’ existence has been inherently threatened by both ideological and repressive state apparati\, in such forms as schooling\, artistic representation\, police and institutions. Through Afrofuturism\, Black Germans create a future in which Black German life can not only survive but thrive. As such\, many of these texts center children as a symbol of the future. But rather than using “the Child” as an oppressive prescription for heteronormativity\, Black German Afrofuturism embraces Black Diasporic queer kinship and asserts that children are valued\, not for their innocence from social discourses\, but precisely because they will eventually become racially conscious and politically active Black German adults necessary for sustaining the community. Thus\, Black German futurity is part of the communal activity of creating a Black German identity. \nRegistration required for virtual attendees only.

SUMMARY:Late Ottoman Turkey in Princeton’s Forgotten Maps\, 1883-1923
DESCRIPTION:Professor Richard J.A. Talbert will outline the attraction and importance of the “Late Ottoman Turkey in Princeton’s Forgotten Maps\, 1883-1923” exhibition\, which is being launched a century after the Smyrna Fire and the establishment of the Turkish Republic. He will highlight the key role of the German cartographers Heinrich and Richard Kiepert and its remarkably long-lasting impact. Kiepert maps of Asia Minor (Turkey) remained the basis of those made by the Ottoman General Staff\, as well as by the British\, German\, Greek\, and Italian armies during and after World War I. \nTalbert will also trace how he gradually became aware of all these rare\, long-forgotten maps\, and shares his experiences in searching for them. He also explains how Princeton University Library’s holdings and expertise have proven crucial to the creation of this absorbing display. \nThe talk will be held in the Fine Hall Visualization Lab and will be followed by a reception in the Maps and Geospatial Information Center. Registration is requested.
