SUMMARY:338 BCE and the Transformation of Ancient Afro-Eurasia
DESCRIPTION:The second half of the 4th c. BCE witnesses a series of dramatic transformations throughout Afro-Eurasia\, foremost among them a rapid escalation in state formation processes and the emergence of new (or newly aggressive) territorial empires. Concentrating on the 330s BCE\, this lecture will pair a thick description of these transformations with an attempt at their analysis.  \n \nDan-el Padilla Peralta is Associate Professor of Classics\, and associated faculty in African American Studies\, at Princeton University. He is the author of Undocumented: A Dominican Boy’s Odyssey from a Homeless Shelter to the Ivy League (Penguin 2015) and Divine Institutions: Religions and Community in the Middle Roman Republic (Princeton 2020); and he has co-edited Rome\, Empire of Plunder: The Dynamics of Cultural Appropriation (Cambridge 2017) and Making the Middle Republic: New Approaches to Rome and Italy\, c. 400 – 200 BCE (Cambridge 2023). He is currently working on Classicism and Other Phobias\, the subject of his 2022 W.E.B. Du Bois Lectures at Harvard. He is a volume co-editor for The Cambridge History of the African Diaspora and sits on the board of the RaceB4Race collective. \nView lecture recording here\n

SUMMARY:Graduate Writing Workshop Series
DESCRIPTION:The workshop is a grad-student-led space for junior scholars whose work spans various geographies related to Africa and its diaspora. This forum primarily comprises doctoral students in the History Department at NYU but is also open to students outside the department and the History field. Generally\, students present projects related to their Ph.D. research\, including dissertation chapters and journal article submissions. Still\, the space will be available to include more than just dissertation chapters to accommodate better the needs of first to third-years and MA students. \nIdeally\, there will be four sessions in the Fall semester (see schedule below)\, and each date would have one person present a piece of writing to the group\, with the rest providing critique like a standard writing group. We ask that all papers for the presentations be sent to the group at least one week before the meeting date to give everyone adequate time to prepare and that you cap submissions at 40 pages. \nThe workshop forum is structured with the presenter’s needs in mind\, so don’t hesitate to contact me if you are interested in presenting or have any questions about your potential fit. Please indicate if you are interested in presenting by completing this form. \n\nFor the Fall 2023 semester\, the CSAAD Graduate Student Writing Workshop will meet on the following dates and times:\n\n\n\n1. Thursday\, September 28\, 12-1:30 pm EST │ Register here\n\n2. Thursday\, October 19\, 12–1:30 pm EST │Register here\n\n\n3. Thursday\, November 30\, 12–1:30 pm EST │Register here\n\n\n4. Thursday\, December 13\,12-1:30 pm EST │Register here\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information or questions\, please email nyuafricadiasporaworkshop@gmail.com
