SUMMARY:A/An: Book Launch and Poetry Reading
DESCRIPTION:A Clark Faculty Series Event\nPresented by\nMandy Gutmann-Gonzalez\, MFA\nAssociate Professor of Practice in English\nClark University \nIn this book launch\, poet Mandy Gutmann-Gonzalez reads from their chapbook A/An. Using 17th century court records of the Salem Witch Trials as a sounding board\, A/An mines the archives to uncover the power and violence residing within the language of the legal system. Through a series of poems modeled after examinations of particular witches\, Gutmann-Gonzalez acts as a medium for these voices from the past. In A/An\, poetry and archive wrestle\, shattering these legal documents that act as gravestones and spilling the voices caught therein. \nAdmission is free and open to the public\, and lunch will be provided. Guests are encouraged to arrive at 11:45 a.m. for refreshments. \nThis event is sponsored by the Alice Coonley Higgins Institute for Arts and Humanities and the Department of English at Clark University. \n\nAbout the Speaker \n \nMandy Gutmann-Gonzalez is a Chilean poet and novelist working at the intersections of text\, image\, archive\, and translation. They are the author of La Pava (Ediciones Inubicalistas) and A/An (End of the Line Press). Their work has been supported by fellowships and residencies from The Bucknell Seminar for Younger Poets\, Lambda Literary\, The Center for Book Arts\, TAKT Residency in Berlin\, The Frost Place\, Studios at MASS MoCA\, the Alice Coonley Higgins Institute for Arts and Humanities\, and MacDowell. They teach creative writing at Clark University. \n  \nAbout the Book \nUsing 17th-century court records of the Salem Witch Trials as a sounding board\, A/An mines the archives to uncover the power and violence residing within the language of the legal system. As state-legislated violence\, witch hunts were constitutive to the colonial order\, reinforcing what was normal and what was aberrant. Rather than regarding the witch hunts as historical curiosity or speculating to fill the gaps\, A/An considers the court examination as poetic form\, a hybrid of legal language and lyric utterance. In these poems\, English becomes foreign to itself\, having distorted through time and slipped through the sieve of law\, through the inevitable erasures of matter and the ideological erasures of the archive: the gaps marked “[illegible due to fold in paper]\,” and the silences that remain unmarked. In a poetics of the “[…]”\, A/An engages with textual gaps as lacunae. In A/An\, poetry and archive wrestle\, shattering these legal documents that act as gravestones and spilling the voices caught therein.

SUMMARY:Modernist Poetics and Queer Fruit
DESCRIPTION:A Clark Faculty Series Event\nPresented by\nElizabeth Blake\, PhD\nAssistant Professor of English\nClark University \nForbidden fruit has long been a convenient metaphor for illicit knowledge and sexuality\, a trope easily traced to the garden of Eden. Modernist poets deployed this familiar figure in new ways\, insisting on the fleshy materiality of fruit as a way of representing other forms of fleshly pleasure. In her recent book\, Edible Arrangements: Modernism’s Queer Forms\, Clark University professor Elizabeth Blake examines this phenomenon as part of a larger exploration of the ways queer consumption restructures modernist literary forms. In this talk\, Blake focuses on T. S. Eliot’s “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” and H. D.’s “Priapus” to discuss the way modernist poets disrupt lyric traditions by setting intertextuality and phenomenological referentiality in tension in order to explore queer experience. \nAdmission is free and open to the public\, and lunch will be provided. Guests are encouraged to arrive at 11:45am for refreshments. \nThis event is sponsored by the Alice Coonley Higgins Institute for Arts and Humanities and the Department of English at Clark University. \n\nAbout the Speaker \nProfessor Elizabeth Blake specializes in gender and sexuality studies\, food studies\, and global modernist literature. Her research focuses on the ways queer pleasure is represented in the literature of the early twentieth century\, and how those representations come to reshape existing literary forms. Her first book\, Edible Arrangements: Modernism’s Queer Forms\, demonstrates that scenes of eating in modernist literature are sites of queerness\, depicting and enacting a kind of pleasure that exceeds normative models. She is also interested in the relationship between modernism and popular forms of cultural production\, including cookbooks\, dinner theatre\, genre fiction\, and women’s middlebrow fiction. Her second book project\, tentatively entitled Against the Love Plot\, traces the ways mid-twentieth century women’s fiction resists both normative models of love and normative plotlines that end in marriage. \nAbout the Book \nIn Edible Arrangements: Modernism’s Queer Forms\, Elizabeth Blake explores the way modernist writing about eating delves into larger questions about bodily and literary pleasure. Drawing on insights from the field of food studies\, she makes dual interventions into queer theory and modernist studies: first\, locating an embrace of queerness within modernist depictions of the pleasure of eating\, and second\, showing how this queer consumption shapes modernist notions of literary form\, expanding and reshaping conventional genres. Drawing from a promiscuous archive that cuts across boundaries of geography and canonicity\, Blake demonstrates how modernist authors draw on this consuming queerness to restructure a range of literary forms. Each chapter constellates a set of seemingly disparate writers working in related modes—such as the satirical writings of Richard Bruce Nugent\, Virginia Woolf\, and Katherine Mansfield—in order to demonstrate how writing about eating can both unsettle the norms of bodily pleasure and those of genre itself.

Refreshments will be served. \n\nApplied Motion Studies: Artists and Scientists Consider Movement is a video exhibition featuring a diverse array of short films that blend the creative visions of artists with the analytical perspectives of scientists. This stellar collection delves into the fascinating world of motion\, exploring the intricacies of human and animal movement in ways imaginative\, inventive\, methodical\, systematic\, and technical. \nThe exhibition considers a myriad of movements\, from the graceful to the dynamic: the fluidity of running\, the poetry of colliding forces\, the mesmerizing mirroring of gestures\, the deliberate crawl of lizards\, the fantastical flight of planes and fireflies\, the rhythmic dance of swimming\, the boundless joy — and anxiety — of jumping\, the thrilling chase\, the explosive pop\, the gradual escalation\, and the playful wink. These are all seen through the lens of artistic expression and scientific observation. \nContributors include: \n\nAlison Chen\, Los Angeles and New York based visual artist/ Run into the Other. / Collide.& Mirror the movements of the other. (2012)\nStephen DiRado\, Professor of Practice\, Clark University / JUMP (2016)\nJames Maurelle\, Assistant Professor\, Clark University / Joe (2014)\, Six Billion Dollar Duddley (2014)\, Intervention (2015)\, & Stogie One (2014)\nOriginal research footage by Frank & Dr. Lillian Gilbreth\, American early advocates of scientific management / Gilbreth Time-and-Motion Study #1 (1924 / 2024\, with soundtrack by Matt Malsky)\nA documentary about American scientist and researcher Harold “Doc” Edgerton\, Professor of Electrical Engineering\, Massachusetts Institute of Technology / Quicker’n a Wink (1940)\nFaculty and students of The Bergmann Evolutionary Functional Morphology Lab at Clark University /Animal Locomotion Studies\n\nThe exhibition will be on display from February 27 through May 20\, 2024 in the Higgins Lounge at Dana Commons on the Clark University campus. \nThe exhibition runs in a loop lasting approximately one hour. Standard hours of admission are Tuesday through Thursday from 9:30am to 3:30pm\, but the schedule may vary due to University holidays and closures. \nPlease contact HigginsSchool@clarku.edu for more information or to arrange a viewing. \nThis exhibition is sponsored by the Higgins School of Humanities as part of the Spring 2024 symposium on Movement.

SUMMARY:Klezmer Dynasty: An Intimate History of Modern Jewish Culture\, 1880-2019
DESCRIPTION:In her inaugural lecture as Rose Professor\, Frances Tanzer gave a sketch of her new project\, Klezmer Dynasty: An Intimate History of Modern Jewish Culture. At the heart of her research is a branch of her own family tree\, the Brandwein klezmer musicians of Hapsburg Galicia. Their story spans three centuries as the family grappled with the tensions between tradition and modernity\, the urban and rural\, Jews and non-Jews\, and the Holocaust and its aftermath. Tanzer posed several key questions to guide her story across many generations\, places\, and cultures from which klezmer music emerged: what happened to the cultures in the multi-ethnic borderlands as their contexts changed over time\, and what new meanings can we derive from them? How did klezmer move from the margins to the mainstream in Europe\, and what does that say about the relationship between Jews\, Jewish culture\, non-Jews\, and the Holocaust? \nRead summary of the event \nWatch video of lecture

SUMMARY:The Ecology of Genocide - Felipe Milanez
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Felipe Milanez\, Professor at the Institute for Humanities\, Arts and Sciences Professor Milton Santos and the Multidisciplinary Postgraduate Program in Culture and Society\, of the Federal University of Bahia\, Brazil \nThis presentation investigates the relationships between the physical destruction of humans and of nature in the Brazilian Amazon. It pays particular attention to the extreme situation of the remaining indigenous peoples in isolation. Historically\, the Amazon has given refuge to massacre survivors and provided the means to rebuild worlds destroyed in wars of conquest. The capture of territories and the control of resources are perennial engines of contemporary genocide perpetrated against indigenous and traditional communities in Brazil\, despite the fundamental rights established by the Federal Constitution of 1988\, a contradiction which has accelerated with the rise of fascist military authoritarianism and the disproportional effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on indigenous and traditional peoples. Resisting genocide and defending forests\, rivers and the ecology of life are deeply interconnected. \nWatch video of event \nSponsored by A new Earth conversation (NEC) and the Strassler Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Clark University. \n
