SUMMARY:"The Paradigm of Science: Axiomatic Methods from Euclid to Gauss"
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Philosophy (with the support of the Humanities Council) is pleased to present the second and final lecture by our Spring 2022 Humanities Council Short-Term Visiting Fellow Vincenzo De Risi. \n***THIS WILL BE A HYBRID EVENT*** \nZoom Meeting Link: https://princeton.zoom.us/j/98741681443 \nAbstract: Euclid’s Elements were considered the paradigm of the scientific method for centuries. This was mainly due to the explicit use of first principles of demonstration (axioms)\, which was later applied to many other disciplines. The talk investigates the significance of such principles of demonstration in Euclid and ancient mathematics\, showing that it was totally different from the modern understanding of axioms. It then discusses the major transformations that the concept of axiom underwent over the centuries\, leading to the idea that different mathematical theories can be based on different axiomatic systems (non-Euclidean geometries). This transformation can be understood as a complete redefinition of the highest model of the scientific method.

SUMMARY:Building the Islamic Metropolis: Cairo under the Mamluks
DESCRIPTION:Cairo is a city with many superlative epithets. To the Egyptians\, it is Misr (Egypt)\, Umm al-Dunya (Mother of the World)\, and the “City of Thousand Minarets\,” for its unparalleled concentration of mosques. To Ibn Khaldun\, who first laid eye on it in 1382\, it was “the metropolis of the world\, orchard of the universe\, hive of nations\, iwan of Islam\, and throne of royalty.” Founded as al-Fustat in 634 at the strategic head of the Nile Delta as the capital of Islamic Egypt\, it grew for the next three centuries by annexing its northern satellites. In 969\, the Fatimids established the seat of their caliphate north of the conglomerate\, and dubbed it the Victorious (al-Qahira\, or Cairo)\, which eventually absorbed al-Fustat and erased its name. But the city’s most spectacular age was the Mamluk period (1250-1517)\, when it became the uncontested center of a resurgent Islam and acquired a character that defined the Islamic metropolis for centuries to come. \nThe lecture tells the story of Mamluk Cairo: how it adapted to the new and idiosyncratic regime\, how it appropriated and modified the urban layers of earlier dynasties\, and how it deployed architecture to incorporate and dominate its urban surroundings. Delving into the “why” side of things\, the lecture ties the urban and architectural developments to the militarization of the state under the Mamluks\, the evolution of an intricate patronage system that governed their interaction with various social classes\, and the two-faced role of the waqf endowment process that supported the urban growth while diverting some public funds to the descendants of this one-generational imported aristocracy. \nThe end result\, however\, was an impressive architectural repertoire consisting of more than 2000 monuments built in the span of 250 years that vied with each other to command the best location with maximum street exposure and high visibility. All was mobilized in the service of a vigorous urbanity that strove to accommodate the cosmopolitan population drawn to the city from everywhere while maintaining the delicate balance between the Mamluk caste of outsiders and the citizens in their capital. \nIn-person attendance is limited to PU ID holders\, who should register in advance. Members of the public are welcome to register for Zoom attendance.

SUMMARY:LAMB – How to Recognize a Prayer When You See One: Middle English Prayer\, Poetry\, and Pearl
DESCRIPTION:The Late Antique\, Medieval\, and Byzantine Workshop at Princeton University (LAMB) brings together graduate students from across departments and disciplines who study and research any region ca. 300-1500 CE\, and offers an opportunity to present and discuss their research with others from within and outside their fields. \nIn addition to providing scholarly support\, development\, and camaraderie\, LAMB prepares us to flourish after graduation. Pre-modernists are often tasked with teaching across geographies and time periods. Learning from each other through workshops provides an opportunity to put our research and our disciplines in conversation with one another. This is essential since medieval studies is unusually interdisciplinary by design\, necessity\, and institutional history. \nLAMB meetings are open to the public via Zoom and Hybrid for University Faculty and Staff.\nClick here to RSVP  & to download the pre-circulated Paper \nFor questions\, please contact Abigail Sargent (ams5@princeton.edu) or Nick Churik (nchurik@princeton.edu). \n

SUMMARY:Megasite Survey: Questions\, Methods\, and Practices in Guicheng Archaeology
DESCRIPTION:Megasites pose special challenges to the archaeologists conducting field survey. The Guicheng city-site\, measuring 8 sq. kilometers\, was a prominent Bronze-Age metropolis situated in eastern Shandong Peninsula in the 10th -5th centuries BC. It also held a key position in a “frontier zone” at which a great deal of cultural exchange had taken place between a pro-Zhou population and the indigenous groups of the Shandong Peninsula known as the “Dongyi”. In five years from 2007 to 2012\, our international collaborative team conducted thorough surveys of the Guicheng megasite extending to its surrounding settlement system on the Longkou plain. We adopted methods that suited the special site environment of Guicheng for the purpose of extracting the maxim amount of information along guidelines for regional surveys developed in the West\, complemented by site-focused probing strategies used in China. The project yielded important information for understanding not only the intrasite political-economic organization of Guicheng itself\, but also the complex cultural relationships on the eastern periphery of the Zhou world during the late Bronze Age.

SUMMARY:Inscribing the Criminal Skin: Underworld Aesthetics and the Flesh of Post-Liberal Futures in Honduras
DESCRIPTION:Over the last thirty years in northern Central America\, young people seeking an alternative to the exploitation of corporate globalization and the predation of neoliberal governmentality have established a sprawling network of “gangs\,” or underground communities dedicated to survival by illicit means. While many scholars have highlighted the transnational continuity of these groups across national boundaries\, the social and symbolic forms that link them are also shaped and made meaningful within the singularities of context. In Honduras\, where US covert operations of the 1980s consolidated narcotrafficking cartels as a source of funding for the Contra war\, understanding the proliferation of gang communities has also required understanding the historical imbrication of state and criminal power. In this talk Jon Carter will look back to the mid 2000s when gang tattooing in Honduras reached a peak\, and young people across the country covered their bodies and faces in intricate tableaux of occult and satanic images. He asks how these dramatic compositions of skulls\, demons\, angels\, and the symbolic ruins of underground communities of the past\, so often dismissed as kitsch\, might be understood politically — a refusal of the linguistic and conceptual conventions of late liberalism that instead addresses the crises of present through a critical and revanchist aesthetics recognizable as baroque. \nDr. Jon Carter is a sociocultural anthropologist interested in criminality\, aesthetics\, and politics. His research focuses on gang communities in northern Central America\, and their reinvention of political subjectivity through the deconstruction of everyday notions of law\, beauty\, and violence. This work is the foundation for broader inquiries into the shifting moral and political embodiments that accompany the economic\, environmental\, and political crises of late liberalism in northern Central America and at the US/Mexico border. Currently\, he is finalizing a book manuscript titled Gothic Sovereignty: Gangs and the Criminal Baroque in Honduras which examines the formation of gangs in Honduras in the aftermath of the contra war\, the figure of the devil in gang tattooing\, and the aesthetics of crime and policing in Tegucigalpa\, the Honduran capital. He is also writing a second book on ethnographic methods\, written as a handbook for both teachers and students engaged in field-based research. Dr. Carter’s work has been supported by the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research\, Columbia University\, Appalachian State University\, and the Claassen Research Enhancement Award in the Appstate Department of Anthropology. \nModerator: Amelia Frank-Vitale\, PLAS Postdoctoral Fellow\, Princeton University \nThis lecture is being offered in-person for Princeton University ID holders only. Boxed lunches provided. Registration is required to attend.

SUMMARY:Radical Composition/Radical Collaboration: A Conversation with Cameron Rowland and Saidiya Hartman
DESCRIPTION:In the arts and humanities\, composition is frequently seen to be a solitary act. And while collaboration is lauded in many contexts\, the real work of intellectual and creative collaboration is rarely discussed or modeled. Artist Cameron Rowland and scholar Saidiya Hartman will share some of the insights they have gleaned from their collaborative efforts thinking and working together about slavery and its afterlife. Please join us for a conversation on the joys and challenges of collaboration and composition\, and cross-pollination between the arts and humanities\, moderated by Visiting Professor in Visual Arts and Art & Archaeology Tina Campt. Co-sponsored by Princeton’s Department of Art & Archaeology. \nFree and open to the public; tickets available and required through University Ticketing at tickets.princeton.edu.

SUMMARY:"Picturing Mathematicians: A History of Geometrical Diagrams and Philosophy of Space"
DESCRIPTION:***THIS WILL BE A HYBRID EVENT*** \nZoom Meeting Link: \nhttps://princeton.zoom.us/j/96002628104 \nThe Department of Philosophy (with the support of the Humanities Council) is pleased to present the first of two lectures by our Spring 2022 Humanities Council Short-Term Visiting Fellow Vincenzo De Risi. \nAbstract: Mathematics textbooks are full of pictures (diagrams) with which theorems are sometimes proved. The validity of these visual demonstrations has always been the focus of important debates among philosophers and mathematicians. The talk discusses this problem in historical perspective\, and shows that in modern geometry there was a gradual disappearance of diagrammatic proofs compared to Greek geometry. This phenomenon is explained through a history of the different modern conceptions of space\, and of the consequent thematization of space as the object of geometry. It is shown that the birth of modern logic owes much to such debates on the nature of space. In the process\, geometric diagrams were transformed from demonstrative icons into pictorial images. \nThe second of two lectures from Vincenzo De Risi entitled “The Paradigm of Science: Axiomatic Methods from Euclid to Gauss” will be held on Thursday\, April 7 at 4:30 pm  in 002 Robertson Hall. For more details\, visit the Department of Philosophy website.

SUMMARY:"Epic Vulnerability: Anchises in the Aeneid"
DESCRIPTION:One of the best-known images from Roman culture is that of one man carrying another. What values might the scene of Aeneas carrying Anchises have encapsulated for Roman audiences? This talk re-examines Virgil’s representation of Anchises\, arguing that the character and his body should not be regarded merely as a pretext for illustrating the virtues of the son. Virgil’s representation of Anchises establishes physical vulnerability and dependence upon others\, not just filial duty or strength\, as a foundation for social relationships at Rome.\nThis event is open to Princeton faculty\, staff and students. In person attendance requires on-site registration and face coverings. \n\n\nTo attend virtually click here for the zoom registration link.

SUMMARY:HMEI Faculty Seminar: “‘The Science Is Clear’: Why the Climate Crisis Needs New Narratives”
DESCRIPTION:Allison Carruth\, professor of American studies and the High Meadows Environmental Institute\, will present “‘The Science Is Clear’ — Why the Climate Crisis Needs New Narratives” for the third talk in the spring 2022 HMEI Faculty Seminar Series. \nCarruth will discuss how appeals to both big data and apocalyptic alarm define the most widely circulated environmental stories. While powerful for some groups\, these appeals do not speak to the increasingly unequal impacts of global warming. Carruth will make a case for narratives that include localized and lived accounts of climate disaster while envisioning futures beyond catastrophe. She will focus on a set of environmental art and media projects about American coastlines that cast neighborhood-level experiences of the climate crisis — and the actions to address them — as inseparable from social inequality. \nThis seminar will be held via Zoom livestream (open to all) and in person (PUID holders only). \nFace coverings are REQUIRED to attend this event in person; boxed lunches will be available at noon in the Guyot Atrium for registered attendees. 10 Guyot (PUID required); Zoom webinar (open to all)

SUMMARY:Book Talk | "Charged: A History of Batteries and Lessons for a Clean Energy Future"
DESCRIPTION:For a clean energy future\, few technologies are more important than batteries. Used for powering zero-emission vehicles\, storing electricity from solar panels and wind turbines\, and revitalizing the electric grid\, batteries are essential to scaling up the renewable energy resources that help address global warming. But given the unique environmental impact of batteries―including mining\, disposal\, and more―does a clean energy transition risk trading one set of problems for another? \nIn Charged\, James Morton Turner unpacks the history of batteries to explore why solving “the battery problem” is critical to a clean energy transition. At a time when climate activists focus on what a clean energy future will create―sustainability\, resiliency\, and climate justice―considering the history of batteries offers a sharp reminder of what building a clean energy future will consume―lithium\, graphite\, nickel\, and other specialized materials. With new insight on questions of justice and sustainability\, Turner draws on the past for crucial lessons that will help us build a clean energy future\, from the ground up.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Edge Effects\, Post-Professional M.Arch Thesis Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:7 projects on Edge Effects \nArchitecture is on edge\, architecture is the edge. Far from the utopian visions and formal bombast of the early 21st century\, these projects offer no easy solutions to urbanism\, infrastructure\, or environment. Instead this architecture offers spaces of safety and succor for adolescence and convalescence. It offers simple shelter to both the human and non-human. It saves both factory and fresco alike\, inviting memory back into public life. It looks into emptiness with empathy for those technical things which toil tirelessly for us. This is architecture on edge\, fragile in its systemicity\, as we are and have been and may continue to be. \nThe 7 projects exhibited are conducted in the context of the Post-Professional M.Arch program at Princeton University School of Architecture where there is a unique opportunity for professionally trained architects to return to the university to pursue a two-year program culminating in a year-long thesis. \nThe 2022 Post-Professional M.Arch Thesis class is coordinated by Assistant Professor V. Mitch McEwen. \nPublic exhibition hours:\nApril 1–22\, 12:00pm-6:00pm (Wed-Sun)\n83 Grand Street New York\, NY 10013 \nDue to Princeton University policies\, masks are required to enter the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Lecture and Lunch with Alex Blanchette: Off-Animals and the End of the American Factory Farm
DESCRIPTION:Alex Blanchette is associate professor of anthropology and environmental studies at Tufts University. He is the author of Porkopolis: American Animality\, Standardized Life\, and the Factory Farm (2020\, Duke University Press) and the co-editor of How Nature Works: Rethinking Labor on a Troubled Planet (2019\, SAR Press). \nPrinceton students\, faculty and staff\, log in with netID to register via webform. \nMembers of the public welcome. Email Bianca Toliver (bianca.toliver@princeton.edu) for details. \n“Off-animals\,” as they are called by some managers of North American pork production\, are the biological refuse of agribusiness efforts to realize standardized life and death. Ranging from aged boars to misshapen pigs\, evolving attempts to industrially slaughter these creatures for meat has led to a shadow infrastructure of killing that\, in turn\, underpins some of the world’s largest factory farms — and potentially signals their limits. This talk arches through Alex Blanchette’s recent book\, Porkopolis\, and into his research on the remains of Chicago’s Union Stockyards\, in order to examine off-animals as indicators of the waning state of labor and value in the United States today. \nLecture at noon. Lunch to follow in East Pyne 010 corridor. \nThe Princeton Food Project is a Humanities Council Magic Project. \nLecture and lunch co-sponsored by the Effron Center for the Study of America\, Department of Anthropology\, High Meadows Environmental Institute\, and University Center for Human Values.

SUMMARY:‘Disturbed’ memories? Tomb reuse in central Apulia in the 4th century BCE
DESCRIPTION:Tomb re-opening in the ancient Mediterranean has been generally treated in scholarship as a transgressive act of violation against the memory of the deceased. Yet\, the practice of re-opening and re-using tombs seems to be a widespread and accepted phenomenon in pre-Roman Italy.  This paper discusses the relationship between graves and collective memory\, focusing on tomb violation in Central Apulia in the 4th century BCE. I argue that this practice\, paired with the general lack of grave markers and post-depositional rites\, ancient looting\, and the unclear boundaries between settlements and necropoleis is part of complex local strategies where the local communities alternately rejected\, incorporated\, and reinvented memories of their own past to create a narrative about themselves and legitimize their newfound power. \n  \nBrice is an Assistant Professor of Classics at Rutgers University. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Cincinnati and has held fellowships at the ASCSA\, the A.D. Trendall Research Center\, and the American Academy in Rome. She has worked at sites in Italy\, Turkey\, and Greece. Her research focuses primarily on burial practices in Southern Italy\, and the relationship between the construction of cultural identity and the consumption of specific artifacts\, especially pottery. Currently\, she is writing a social biography of the inhabitants of pre-Roman Apulia\, using burials as my main source of evidence\, and is about to start a new project on Hellenistic pottery in Tarquinia. \nPre-registration is required\, and in-person attendance will be capped at 20 participants. Registrations will be confirmed via email on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nRegister Here \n– All attendees must wear face coverings.\n– Ability to social distance may not be possible.\n– Princeton ID/Prox cards are required to enter the building. \n
