SUMMARY:Tania Islam's Doctoral Defense: "Things Left Unsaid: Historical Silences and Multiethnic Women’s Fiction"
DESCRIPTION:All graduate students and faculty are encouraged to join us for Tania Islam’s doctoral defense\, “Things Left Unsaid: Historical Silences and Multiethnic Women’s Fiction\,” on Wednesday\, 3/23 @ 11 AM via Zoom. \nDissertation Committee: Miles Orvell\, Daniel O’Hara (Emeritus)\, and James Salazar \nAbstract:\nMy dissertation titled “Things Left Unsaid: Historical Silences and Multiethnic Women’s Fiction” addresses the use of narrative by four ethnic American women authors\, namely Dina Nayeri\, Edwidge Danticat\, Julia Alvarez\, and Amy Tan (immigrants or second-generation citizens)\, who write about personal tragedies and trauma to address the issue of omission and silence in historical records. \nI argue that these literary works are an admixture of narrative and history that function as a mode of storytelling that allows readers to bear witness to events of social and political importance. Transnational and literary theorists have often prioritized the émigré status of these women authors to argue that they have been able to become successful spokespersons for their people because of their journey away from their homeland. However\, my dissertation employs an interdisciplinary approach to demonstrate the opposite—these women authors may refashion themselves as hybridized citizens\, but they do not sever ties with their homelands\, nor do they speak for the entirety of their respective ethnic communities. On the contrary\, through their fictions\, these authors focus on the importance of individualistic and personal storytelling to counter the silencing effects produced through the unidimensional processes of History that do not incorporate a multitude of voices and points of opinion. I argue that the use of narrative and storytelling by these four ethnic American women authors redress such omissions.

SUMMARY:Queer Theory Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join us for the first semester of the Queer Theory Reading Group. The first meeting will be Thursday March 17\, 2022.  \nOur intention is to gain familiarity with Queer Theory by reading foundational texts of the movement. Through our discussions we will attempt to answer questions like What is Queer Theory? What does Queer Theory have to do with literature? Is Queer Theory applicable to my work? How can I use Queer Theory in my writing? \nThis semester we will begin by reading the first chapter of Queer Theory Now(2020) by Hannah McCann & Whitney Monaghan\, called “Defining Queer Theory.” With that chapter as a foundation\, we will undertake readings of works by Adrian Rich\, Judith Butler\, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick\, and others. \nWe welcome anyone who is Queer Theory curious\, from any department—undergraduate students\, graduate students\, faculty members. \nEmail Vanessa Loh at vanessa.loh@temple.edu for more details & PDF’s of the readings.

SUMMARY:Carla Anderson Doctoral Defense
DESCRIPTION:All graduate students and faculty are encouraged to attend Carla Anderson’s doctoral defense on Tuesday\, 3/8 at 2 PM. \nZoom Link: https://temple.zoom.us/j/99303107420  \nTitle: Reading Trauma in Contemporary Northern Irish & Irish Poetry \nAbstract:\nThis dissertation will examine the works of five contemporary Northern Irish poets who lived through the Troubles\, a period of intense sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland that lasted about thirty years from the late 1960s until the late 1990s. Ciaran Carson\, Medbh McGuckian\, Paul Muldoon\, Colette Bryce\, and Leontia Flynn each write in different experimental modes to express the traumatic experiences of the Troubles. Through a discussion of selected works by these poets\, this dissertation will develop a revision of established trauma theory and suggest a mode of reading works about trauma that emphasizes the generative potential of writing about trauma with non-normative narrative styles and poetic techniques. \nCarson’s middle-era poetry transposes post-traumatic responses into poetry\, using poetic form and atemporal narrative to draw the reader in. McGuckian’s deeply interior poems initially seem to resist interpretation\, but ultimately\, the reader as witness plays an important role in processing traumatic experiences. Muldoon’s playful and allusive poetry reflects on traumatic experiences without becoming stuck in any repeating narrative\, emphasizing the generative potential for using poetry to transform the past into infinite imaginative possibilities. Colette Bryce and Leontia Flynn\, writing in the “post-Agreement” era after the ceasefire\, each seek distance and alternate perspectives that allow them to both look back at the past and look forward into the future.

SUMMARY:Eli Goldblatt\, “Can We Talk? What Creative Writing\, Literary Criticism and Composition/Rhetoric Can Learn From Each Other About Writing”
DESCRIPTION:For too long\, colleagues have taught side by side but avoided conversations about what we know in common or can learn from each other about writing and writers. We have let administrative and historical boundaries stand in the way of companionship and mutual support in the difficult task of teaching students and investigating discourses\, genres\, and writing practices. Eli Goldblatt will share some ideas he’s been considering in a project he calls Lit to Lit: Literacy and Literature in Conversation.  Participants are free to read his recent article\, “Imagining the Local: William Carlos Williams\, John Dewey\, and Community Literacy”—Eli will briefly summarize the Lit to Lit project but move quickly to small group discussions among participants about what common ground we have for productive conversation.  \nThis talk is sponsored by the First Year Writing Program at Temple University\, and no registration is required to attend.

SUMMARY:CLA Fall Speaker Series: “Dwelling in the Inhabited Sea”
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate Student Association of the Department of Geography and Urban Studies invites you to the second installment of the Fall 2021 Speaker Series\, featuring Dr. Nikhil Anand. \nNikhil Anand is an environmental anthropologist whose research focuses on cities\, infrastructure\, state power and climate change\, and associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania. His award-winning first book\, Hydraulic City: Water and the Infrastructures of Politics in Mumbai (Duke University Press 2017)\, examines the everyday ways in which cities and citizens are made through the everyday management of water infrastructure. His new book project\, Urban Seas\, is supported by grants from the National Science Foundation\, the Wenner-GrenDr Foundation\, and the Penn Global Inquiries Fellowship. Based on field research with fishers\, scientists and planners as they work in the sea\, the book decenters the grounds of urban planning by drawing attention to the ways in which climate-changed seas are remaking coastal cities today.  \nDr. Anand is also Co-PI for two collaborative research initiatives\, Rising Waters and Inhabited Sea. Together with Bethany Wiggin (Penn Program in Environmental Humanities\, co-PI)\, and Lalitha Kamath and Pranjal Deekshit (Tata Institute of Social Sciences)\, Rising Waters explores how climate change and urban redevelopment are recapitulating classed and raced vulnerabilities of marginalized residents in Philadelphia and Mumbai. Inhabited Sea (with Anuradha Mathur\, Co-PI) is a transdisciplinary research collaboration with architects\, artists\, citizen-scientists\, oceanographers\, social scientists\, and urban planners working in Mumbai.  \nNikhil Anand received his PhD in Anthropology from Stanford University in 2011\, and a Masters in Environmental Science from Yale University in 2004. He has been a Member of the School of Social Science at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton\, a Quadrant Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Minnesota\, and a Mellon Fellow at the Stanford Humanities Center. \nPlease register in advance for this webinar. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. \nProblems registering or other questions?

SUMMARY:Philadelphia Writing Program Administrators' Fall Workshop

SUMMARY:Digital Projects in the Humanities Workshop
DESCRIPTION:THIS THURSDAY 2/1 10:30-11:30am \nPLACE: Women’s Studies Lounge\, Room 821 Anderson Hall \nAlex Wermer-Colan\, Postdoctoral Fellow at the Temple University Digital Scholarship Center\, will present an informal introduction to digital projects in the Humanities\, designed especially for English graduate students. \nHe’ll talk about the shifting role of the digital humanities in universities\, partly based on his own experience. He’ll also address the relevance of digital humanities to job searches\, jobs in the alt-ac sector\, etc. \nThis is a great opportunity to find out more about how digital humanities methods might affect your own work and the future of the humanities more generally. \nAlex\, a recent Ph.D. from CUNY comes with a traditional English degree and with great experience as well in a range of digital projects. As some of you know\, he’s leading several workshops this semester at Paley Library. \nBring your questions\, or simply your curiosity about this new field. \nWe hope to bring Alex back for two more workshops for English graduate students during the course of the semester.
