SUMMARY:INSULAR POSSESSIONS: IMPERIAL LEGACIES OF 1898 WITH A SPECIAL SCREENING OF CALL HER GANDA
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored by the NYU Native Studies Forum\, the NYU Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies\, and Asian/Pacific/American Studies Program in the NYU Department of Social & Cultural Analysis. \nThe year 1898 has conventionally been regarded as the American “imperial moment\,” when the United States acquired and occupied a number of island nations\, both in the Pacific and the Caribbean. One hundred twenty years after the Treaty of Paris\, which ended the Spanish-American War\, as well as the alleged annexation of Hawai‘i\, what have been the legacies and ongoing effects of this “imperial archipelago”? How did the distinct but overlapping colonial practices of Spain and the United States shape social and cultural life? What has been the formal legal and political status of the Philippines\, Guåhan (Guam)\, Cuba\, Puerto Rico\, Samoa\, and Hawai‘i? \nThis half-day symposium ends with a screening of the award-winning documentary Call Her Ganda and Q&A with filmmaker PJ Raval (University of Texas\, Austin). The film follows the fight for justice for Jennifer Laude\, a Filipina trans woman who was murdered by a US serviceman in 2014. The screening is co-sponsored by the NYU Center for the Study of Gender & Sexuality.

SUMMARY:Book Talk: "The Chief Eunuch of the Ottoman Harem" Jane Hathaway
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nEunuchs were a common feature of pre- and early modern societies that are now poorly understood. Here\, Jane Hathaway offers an in-depth study of the chief of the African eunuchs who guarded the harem of the Ottoman Empire. A wide range of primary sources are used to analyze the Chief Eunuch’s origins in East Africa and his political\, economic\, and religious role from the inception of his office in the late sixteenth century through the dismantling of the palace harem in the early twentieth century. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHathaway highlights the origins of the institution and how the role of eunuchs developed in East Africa as well as exploring the Chief Eunuchs connections to Egypt and Medina. By tracing the evolution of the office\, we see how the Chief Eunuch’s functions changed in response to transformations in Ottoman society\, from the generalized crisis of the seventeenth century to the westernizing reforms of the nineteenth century.\n\nJane Hathaway (Arts & Sciences Distinguished Professor of History\, Ohio State University) is a specialist of the Ottoman empire. Her research has focused on the empire’s Arab provinces\, particularly Egypt and Yemen. She has recently been working on the Chief Eunuch of the Ottoman Imperial Harem. She received her Ph.D. from Princeton’s’ Near Eastern Studies Department in 1992. She is the author of The Politics of Household in Ottoman Egypt: The Rise of the Qazdaglis (Cambridge\, 1997)\, A Tale of Two Factions: Myth\, Memory\, and Identity in Ottoman Egypt and Yemen(SUNY Press\, 2003)\, Beshir Agha\, Chief Eunuch of the Ottoman Harem (Oneworld\, 2006)\, The Arab Lands under Ottoman Rule\, 1516-1800 (Pearson/Longman\, 2008)\, and The Chief Eunuch of the Ottoman Harem: From African Slave to Power-Broker (Cambridge\, 2018). \n\nThis book talk will also feature discussant Leslie Peirce (Emeritus\, NYU)\, whose writing and teaching focus on the Ottoman empire\, with an emphasis on the early modern period. Her first book explored the shifting nature of imperial politics by placing the palace harem at the center of inquiry. Other topics Peirce has written about include honor and sexuality\, provincial politics\, abduction and captivity\, and slavery and household formation. She recently published a biographical account of Hurrem\, the concubine and then wife to Suleyman I the Magnificent. \nCheck out the Facebook event here. \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by Ottoman & Turkish Studies (OTS) at NYU.

SUMMARY:Latin America's 1968 - Marta Minuj´ín
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Latin America’s 1968 Colloquium series\, New York University’s Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS)\, Department of Spanish and Portuguese\, The Hemisphiric Institute of Performance and Politics\, and The Institute of Fine Arts (IFA)\, are proud to present a conversation with internationally acclaimed Argentine performance and conceptual artist Marta Minujín and IFA’s Deputy Director Edward Sullivan. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Ticket holders receive priority seating. \nAbout the speakers: \nMarta Minujín is an internationally acclaimed Argentine performance and conceptual artist whose career has helped define the role of participation\, performance\, and media in contemporary visual art. Minujín created her first “ephemeral” works in the 1960s in Paris and New York\, where she and became an innovator of pop art\, happenings\, soft sculpture\, and early video. Her celebrated La Menesunda (1965) created a sequence of 16 multi-sensory “situations” or environments for spectators to traverse; these included a beauty parlor\, a couple in bed\, and a shower of a confetti in an octagonal mirror chamber. Her 1967 Minuphone created an interactive “psychedelic” telephone booth in which voice triggered sensory changes in light\, image\, and sound. In May 1968—at the height of the cultural and political ferment of global 1968—Minujín hosted a series of soirèes/happenings with luminaries of fashion\, art\, finance\, and politics at Manhattan’s Center for Inter-American Relations (now Americas Society); the documentation became the basis of an immersive film installation\, known as Minucode\, which advanced a subtle critique of the role of “cultural” diplomacy needed to carry out the US cold war in Latin America. While in New York she participated in activities at Andy Warhol’s Factory\, and in the 1980s\, created a performance in which she offered Warhol a corn on the cob as a way of paying off Argentina’s foreign debt. She is perhaps best known for the 1983 piece The Parthenon of Books\, a large-scale replica of a Greek parthenon built on Buenos Aires’s main avenue\, comprised of 30\,000 books banned by the military regime during Argentina’s “Dirty War\,” including works by Marx\, Freud\, and Foucault. Spectators were then invited to dismantle work. She has continued to create works that combine ephemeral materials with monumental scale\, including Tower of Babel (2011)\, Agora of Peace (2013)\, and Hopscotch Art (2014). She lives and works in Buenos Aires. \nEdward J. Sullivan is the Helen Gould Sheppard Professor in the History of Art and the Deputy Director of the Institute of Fine Arts New York University. He has developed extensive research and curated several shows on the arts and visual cultures of the Americas from a transnational perspective\, with a particular concentration in Mexico\, Cuba\, Brazil\, Argentina\, Puerto Rico\, and Uruguay. Edward is the author of From San Juan to Paris and Back: Francisco Oller and Caribbean Art in the Era of Impressionism\, published by Yale University Press in 2014\, and The Language of Objects in the Art of the Americas\, published also by Yale in 2007\, among many other books and catalogs. \nSullivan’s latest book is entitled “Making the Americas Modern. Hemispheric Art 1910-1960” published this past March. He is currently curating a major exhibition of the Brazilian garden architect and painter Roberto Burle-Marx that opens in June next year at the New York Botanical Garden. His next book project concerns the relationships between artists and choreographers in the US and Latin America in the mid twentieth century. \nAbout the series: \nLatin America’s 1968; Curated by Jill Lane & Dylon Robbins. \nIn Latin America\, the year 1968 marked a turning point in the social\, political\, and cultural transformations that had been unfolding in the wide wake of the Cuban Revolution of 1959. For Latin America\, as for the rest of the world\, the sixties were shaped by geopolitics of the Cold War\, and of anti-colonial struggles across the globe. Yet they are most remembered by those who lived them as a time when ordinary people felt\, like never before and perhaps never after\, that they could change the course of history: millions of youth in student movements\, advocates for indigenous rights\, workers\, campesinos\, educators\, intellectuals\, and artists\, long with guerillas and other armed insurgents\, were self-aware in world-historical projects of radical social\, political\, economic\, and cultural change. In these years\, the personal became the political\, politics became theatrical\, theatre became a weapon\, and the lines between self\, art\, and politics were forever redrawn. To mark the 50th anniversary of this momentous year\, the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS) offers a film and lecture series that will explore and celebrate its significance in the region. \nImage: Marta Minujin | by Martin Lucesole | Flickr

SUMMARY:Enforced Disappearances in an Age of Emboldened Repression
DESCRIPTION:Governments are disappearing people at an alarming rate\, often in conjunction with policies carried out in the name of repressing terrorism\, organized crime\, or plain political dissent. Reports of undercover extraterritorial abductions of people in foreign countries are on the rise. The widely-reported case of disappeared Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi is only one example of many occurring from Mexico to the Philippines and beyond. Join us for a timely discussion on recent developments in international law and accountability with one of the independent experts charged with monitoring human rights violations and reporting to the UN Human Rights Council. \nAbout the Speaker \nBernard Duhaime serves as member and president of the UN Working Group on enforced or involuntary disappearances. He is Professor of International Law at the University of Quebec in Montreal’s Faculty of Law and Political Science and is currently a CHRGJ Visiting Scholar at NYU Law\, as a Fellow of the Pierre Trudeau Foundation (2017-2021).
