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:Value and Solidarity
DESCRIPTION:Marx’s theory of the value form provides an alternative to common sense—i.e. ideological—understandings of the relationship between culture and economy. Might it also be useful to unblocking the perceptual and political impasses characterizing our academic wars of position against the universal? \nCo-Sponsored by the Department of Comparative Literature and the Department of English.

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.

SUMMARY:How did they learn? How did they teach?: Exploring Knowledge Transmission from Late Antiquity to the Early Modern
DESCRIPTION:Much of our modern knowledge is the result of centuries of experiments driven by human desire to record and pass down successes\, failures and lessons learned. The timespan from the periods often called “Late Antique” to that called “Early Modern” offers enormous scope to explore the historical record of knowledge transmission across diverse social contexts. \nThis conference will explore the many networks and forms of knowledge transmission active across the Late Antique and Early Modern periods. We will work within a wide span of geographical and chronological parameters as well as across disciplines. \nPlease visit the conference website for the schedule and registration. \nSponsored by the Program in Medieval Studies\, the Committee on Renaissance and Early Modern Studies\, the Department of Art and Archaeology\, The Center for Collaborative History\, the Seeger Center for Hellenic Studies\, the Princeton Graduate School\, the Program in History of Science\, and The Delaware Valley Medieval Association.

SUMMARY:Fictions of Accumulation: The Economic Turn in Latin American Cultural Studies
DESCRIPTION:This event brings together prominent scholars of what can be described as the economic turn in Latin American Cultural Studies. Rethinking the role of aesthetics and narrative structures within the history of capitalism\, they provide a nuanced outlook on the economic discourses and apparatuses that have defined capital accumulation in the region. In addition to a shared methodological approach that combines literary and economic analysis\, the trait that distinguishes these studies is a concern with understanding the specificity of capitalism in Latin America. Troubled by the increased naturalization of extractivism and neoclassical theories during the neoliberal age\, these body of works have provided a new critique of political economy through an engagement with the Latin American archive. They draw from Dependency Theory\, neo-Keynesianism\, and the Marxist traditions that shaped the field in the 1970s and 1980s\, but they take these scholarships on new and productive intellectual paths through a renewed engagement with categories like primitive accumulation\, logistics\, fictitious capital\, turnover time\, coloniality\, uneven development\, value\, and crisis. In a fruitful engagement with gender theory\, the scholarship on racial capitalism\, and decolonial approaches\, they have also underlined the central part played by political economy – as a discipline and practice of government – in the production of class\, race\, and gender subjectivities that have historically enabled the extraction of surplus value. \nGUEST SPEAKERS\nDr. Ericka Beckman\, University of Pennsylvania\nDr. Alejandra Laera\, Universidad de Buenos Aires\nDr. Daniel Nemser\, University of Michigan \nMODERATOR\nNicolás Sánchez-Rodríguez\, Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellow in the Society of Fellows; Lecturer in the Council of the Humanities and Spanish and Portuguese\, Princeton University \nOpen to Princeton students\, faculty\, visiting scholars and specially invited guests.

SUMMARY:Rubens’s Saltcellar: On the Generative Power of Nature and (Antwerp’s) Art
DESCRIPTION:Containers for liquids and other substances are among the oldest known artifacts of human ingenuity; in early modern Antwerp\, the focus of my research\, artists and craftsmen seized on the arrival of new technologies and new materials to increase the diversity of the shapes and kinds of vessels used at table. However\, in the research literature these utensils are frequently treated as luxury collectables while their actual use as receptacles is neglected. In my talk I explore a different approach to precious vessels\, one that takes into account the imaginaries of the substances they were designed to hold and the ways in which their craftsmanship resonated with the dynamically shifting relationships between material environments\, cosmologies\, and practises of making. My main example is a well-known saltcellar designed by Peter Paul Rubens for his own household and created collaboratively by the Augsburg ivory carver Georg Petel and the Antwerp silversmith Jan Herck in about 1628. How did this beautifully crafted object (in its shape\, material\, and imagery related to the marine Venus) comment on and pay homage to the transformative power of salt\, understood as a universal agent of life and generation\, nourishing and preserving both human and animal bodies as well as the body of the earth? My interest is in an ethics and epistemology of material transformation (from nature into art) that resonated with Antwerp’s intellectual culture and the city’s unique place in the world of craftmanship\, knowledge\, and design.

SUMMARY:LLL: Teaching White Supremacy-America’s Democratic Ordeal and the Forging of Our National Identity
DESCRIPTION:Henry Louis Gates calls Yacovone’s new book “the most profoundly original cultural history in recent memory.” We are thrilled that Eddie Glaude\, one of the nation’s most prominent scholars and public intellectuals\, will be joining the author to discuss the clear and damning evidence assembled by Yacovone of white supremacy’s deep-seated roots in our nation’s education system. \nJoin us at Labyrinth Books or click here to register for the livestream. \nSifting through a wealth of materials\, from primary readers to college textbooks and other higher-ed course materials and from the colonial era to today\, Yacovone reveals the systematic ways in which white supremacist ideology has infiltrated American culture and how it has been at the heart of our collective national identity. \nThe author argues that it is the North\, not the South\, that bears the greater responsibility for creating the dominant strain of race theory\, inculcated throughout the culture and in school textbooks\, that restricted and repressed African Americans and other minorities\, even as Northerners blamed the South for its legacy of slavery\, segregation and racial injustice. \nDonald Yacovone is the lifetime Associate at Harvard University’s Hutchins Center for African and African American Research. His previous book is The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross\, co-written with Henry Louis Gates\, Jr. He is the recipient of the W.E.B. Du Bois medal. Eddie Glaude is a passionate educator\, author\, political commentator\, and public intellectual who examines the complex dynamics of the American experience. His influential books include Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul; In a Shade of Blue: Pragmatism and the Politics of Black America; and Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for our Own. \nThis event is part of Labyrinth’s and the Public Library’s joint programming and is cosponsored by Princeton University’s African American Studies Department and Humanities Council.

SUMMARY:On: Ontology and its Glitches
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: My dream is to give an extensive talk on a single very simple word\, ‘on’. Here are some dimensions that coincide in this word: ‘on’ is Greek for being; ‘on’ is an injunction to go on (as in Beckett); ‘on’ is an imperative and touches upon the dimension of Lacan’s claim ‘ontology is the discourse of the Master’; ‘on’ is the inversion of ‘no’; ‘on’ is the French impersonal pronoun; and there is more. Could one propose a new discipline\, namely on-tology? One would have to briefly consider its relations to Derrida’s project of hauntology\, and to Lacan’s suggestion of hontologie (from la honte\, shame). What do these puns and glitches tell us about the nature of universality? \nThis event will be livestreamed on Media Central. \n\nMladen Dolar is Professor and Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Philosophy\, University of Ljubljana. His principal areas of research are psychoanalysis\, modern French philosophy\, German idealism and art theory. He has lectured extensively at the universities in USA and across Europe\, he is the author of over hundred and fifty papers in scholarly journals and collected volumes. Apart from fourteen books in Slovene his book publications include most notably A Voice and Nothing More (MIT 2006\, translated into ten languages) and Opera’s Second Death (with Slavoj Žižek\, Routledge 2001\, also translated into several languages). His new book The Riskiest Moment is forthcoming with Duke University Press. He is one of the founders of the ‘Ljubljana Lacanian School’. \nCo-sponsored by the Humanities Council and the German Department.

SUMMARY:Experiments in Euphemism Detection
DESCRIPTION:To fully understand human language\, machines need to be able to recognize and interpret expressions that contain hidden meanings. This project concentrates on euphemisms\, mild or indirect phrases used in place of harsher or more offensive ones. Euphemisms are often used to mask profanity or refer to sensitive topics such as death\, sex\, religion\, disability\, or personal relationships in a polite way. People use euphemisms all the time\, e.g.\, ‘negative patient outcome’\, ‘between jobs’\, ‘financially fortunate’\, ‘correctional facility’\, ‘friendly fire’\, or ‘sunshine unit’. Different cultures/languages use different euphemisms. Euphemisms change over time. Machines that process human language do not understand euphemisms yet. \nIn this talk\, I will present our work in progress\, a linguistically-driven proof of concept for automatically detecting euphemisms. We are using linguistic insights to build an algorithm to detect new euphemisms\, not previously recorded in dictionaries\, without human intervention. \nThe main observations are 1) euphemistic expressions and their paraphrased counterparts differ in the strength of the sentiment they convey; 2) euphemistic and non-euphemistic interpretation is context-sensitive; and 3) euphemisms are vaguer than the taboo expressions they substitute. I will describe the corpus collection and annotation process as well as a number of pilot experiments\, their results and analysis\, and suggest future directions. \nAnna Feldman is a professor of Linguistics and Computer Science at Montclair State University. She received her Ph.D. in computational linguistics from The Ohio State University\, her B.A. in English and East-Asian Studies and M.A. in theoretical linguistics from The Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She is the author of A Resource-light Approach to Morpho-syntactic Tagging (Brill). Her most recent projects deal with the computational processing of figurative language and Internet censorship.

SUMMARY:A Talk About Theater and Performance in the 60s and 70s
DESCRIPTION:In this conversation\, artist Leopoldo Maler and art historian Agustín Díez Fischer will discuss Maler’s performances\, films\, and plays of the 1960s and 70s. As part of a generation of artists who participated in the activities of the Instituto Di Tella in Buenos Aires\, Maler was at the center of experimental artistic practice in the Argentina capital. In 1961\, he traveled to London for the first time\, bringing to the British art scene the avant-garde ideas he had developed in his native city and promoting interdisciplinary collaborative projects in museums and public spaces. This talk centers on Maler’s experiences in both cities\, and how through his work he addresses topics such as the human body and technology\, rituals and public demonstrations\, language and translations. \nThis event will also include the projection of Men in Silence (1964) [6:55 minutes]\, directed by Leopoldo Maler. \nABOUT OUR GUEST SPEAKER\nLeopoldo M. Maler was born in Argentina\, where he obtained a Law Degree at the University of Buenos Aires. In 1961\, he moved to London\, where he lived for more than 18 years. While there\, he started experimenting with new ideas about mixed media\, integrating films into sculptures and installations. Maler worked on many projects for the BBC World Service\, made a short film awarded “Most Outstanding Film of the Year” at the 1964 London Film Festival\, and collaborated closely with the Contemporary Dance Theatre\, a spin-off of the Martha Graham Dance Company in New York. \nIn London\, Maler created performances at the Royal Court Theater\, the Round House\, and The Place\, and held solo shows at the Whitechapel Gallery; the Camden Arts Center (London). Additionally\, he had a major retrospective at the Centro Cultural de Buenos Aires. He has exhibited his art worldwide\, including at the Hayward Gallery (London) and the Centre Pompidou (Paris). In 1977\, Maler was granted a Guggenheim Fellowship for the Arts and moved to New York\, where he lived until 1983. After\, he became the first Dean of the Parsons School of Design’s division in Latin America (Santo Domingo). Maler represented Argentina at the XIV International Biennale of Art of São Paulo\, where he was awarded the First Prize\, and at the 1986 Venice Biennale. \nIn 1988\, Maler co-founded and directed the Napa Contemporary Arts Foundation (part of the Hess Collection)\, an organization dedicated to furthering new ideas in the arts and education. In addition\, he has lectured in various major international universities\, and his works are held in major museums and private collections. With his main studio in the Dominican Republic\, Maler frequently travels to Miami\, Buenos Aires\, and various European cities. \nMODERATOR\nAgustín Díez Fischer\, Centro de Estudios Espigas (EAyP\, UNSAM) / Fundación Espigas; PLAS Visiting Research Scholar\, Princeton University \nOpen to students\, faculty\, visiting scholars and specially invited guests. A boxed lunch will be provided while supplies last.

Homes\, who will discuss The Unfolding\, a stunning alternative history that is prescient\, tender\, and funny and is her first novel since the Women’s Prize award-winning May We Be Forgiven\, with historian Laura F. Edwards. \nThe Big Guy loves his family\, money\, and country. Undone by the results of the 2008 presidential election\, he taps a group of like-minded men to reclaim their version of the American Dream. As they build a scheme to disturb and disrupt\, the Big Guy also faces turbulence within his family. His wife\, Charlotte\, grieves a life no lived\, while his 18-year-old daughter Meghan begins to realize that her favorite subject –history—is not exactly what her father taught her. \nHomes unpacks a dangerous rift in American identity\, prompting a reconsideration of the definition of truth\, freedom\, and democracy – and exploring the explosive consequences of what happens when the same words mean such different things to people living together under one roof. \nA.M. Homes is the author of thirteen books\, among them the best-selling memoir The Mistress’ Daughter; the novels This Book Will Save Your Life\, The End of Alice\, and Jack; and the short story collections Days of Awe\, The Safety of Objects and Things You Should Know. She also writes for film and television and teaches in the Creative Writing Program at Princeton University. Laura F. Edwards is a legal historian whose research focuses on the nineteenth-century United States. Her prize winning books include Scarlett Doesn’t Live Here Anymore: Southern Women in the Civil War Era; The People and Their Peace: Legal Culture and the Transformation of Inequality in Post-Revolutionary South; and most recently Only the Clothes on Her Back: Clothing and the Hidden History of Power in the 19th century U.S. \nThis event is part of Labyrinth’s and the Princeton Public Library’s joint programming and is cosponsored by Princeton University’s Lewis Center for the Arts and Humanities Council.

SUMMARY:"Swamp”
DESCRIPTION:Shambhavi Kaul\n“Swamp”\n[Response: Rachel Price]\nTuesday\, November 29\, 2022 @5pm ET\nN107 (School of Architecture) \nThe swamp has long been imagined as a site of horror in popular cinema\, partially premised on the idea that such land exists beyond the reach of capitalist society: think of the much-adapted 1971 comic\, The Swamp Thing\, whose protagonist is a vegetal\, subhuman who hides and survives\, away from humans\, in a swamp. As my own films have been concerned with “protagonism” within popular cinematic logic\, I am now turning to the ways in which the question of protagonism\, actors and agency\, are at the heart of how to think of our earth’s future beyond the reigning extractionist logic. In this talk\, I discuss these concepts in relation to my current\, in-progress film that builds on my earlier work. \nShambhavi Kaul is a filmmaker\, visual artist\, and Associate Professor of the Practice in the Department of Art\, Art History & Visual Studies\, the program in Cinematic Arts and the MFA in Experimental and Documentary Arts at Duke University. Her entire body of work is engaged with a core question of the limits and possibilities afforded to protagonists in cinematic storytelling. Her films and installations have been presented worldwide at the Toronto\, New York\, London and Rotterdam film festivals\, the Berlinale\, and the Flaherty Film Seminar. She has also been invited to present her work at museums including the Tate Modern in London and the Museum of Modern Art in New York among other venues. \nRachel Price works on Latin American\, circum-Atlantic and particularly Cuban literature and culture. Associate Professor of Spanish and Portuguese at Princeton University\, she is author of several publications on media\, slavery\, poetics\, environmental humanities\, and visual art\, including The Object of the Atlantic: Concrete Aesthetics in Cuba\, Brazil and Spain 1868-1968 (Northwestern University Press\, 2014)\, and Planet/Cuba: Art\, Culture\, and the Future of the Island (Verso Books\, 2015) \nM+M recommends using face masks whenever indoors. \nPlease visit M+M’s official website for the full events calendar and current information.
