SUMMARY:Oral Histories of Environmental Illness (OHEI) Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the CSW|Streisand Center. \n\nRSVP to the symposium.\nView the program and schedule.\n\nWhen: Friday\, November 17 – Saturday\, November 18\, 2023 \nWhere: Hershey Hall Salon (158)\, 612 Charles E. Young Drive East\, Los Angeles\, CA 90095 (Parking structure 2 is closest) \nHybrid event. The event will be in-person and live-streamed on CSW|Streisand Center’s YouTube channel @UCLACSW. \n\nWatch the Friday\, November 17 livestream.\nWatch the Saturday\, November 18 livestream.\n\nWith the surge in numbers of “unrecovered” from the Co-V2 pandemic\, the public’s interest has turned to disability and caregiver activism\, ongoing remissions protocols\, and patient-led research networks established by those living with chronic fatigue\, multiple chemical sensitivity\, tick-borne illnesses\, and autoimmune conditions (e.g. HIV\, lupus\, Crohn’s). This conference bridges the immediate before and after of Co-V2’s effects on this growing population of the chronically ill\, and often medically abandoned\, to ask how they—like the proverbial canaries in the coal mine—have defined and laid the groundwork for disability justice\, art\, and activism. \nThis event is part of a three-year multi-campus research grant at the University of California focusing on “Abolition Medicine and Disability Justice: Mapping Inequity and Renewing the Social Project.” \nFragrance-free: \nPlease avoid wearing scented products such as perfumes/colognes\, scented lotions\, clothing with strong detergent scents\, etc. while attending this event as they can trigger serious health issues for those with fragrance allergies.

SUMMARY:Lighght Reading: Thinking through Concrete Poetry
DESCRIPTION:This talk joins in the recent resurgence of critical interest in the mid-century international movement known as Concrete Poetry.

SUMMARY:Fall 2023 Research Seminar Public Lecture – Professor Craig Muldrew (Cambridge\, UK)
DESCRIPTION:As part of the CMRS-CEGS Research Seminar graduate course for Fall 2023\, Money Matters: Between Antiquity and the Enlightenment (ca. 600-1600)\, guest lecturer\, Professor Craig Muldrew (Cambridge\, UK) will share about his expertise in British Social and Economic History from 1500 to 1800. \nCraig Muldrew’s research mainly focuses on the investigation of the economic and social role of trust in the development of the market economy in England between 1500-1700\, and the living standards and work of agricultural laborer’s in the early modern English economy. He has written articles in the field of legal history concerning debt litigation and its relationship to the nature of community\, and articles on the cultural nature of money\, and wages in the early modern period. He is currently engaged on a long term project examining the development of the concept of self-control and its effect on the structure of community and on the creation of savings\, as well as how local paper credit came to be trusted in eighteenth century England. \n“Money” is a Fall 2023 graduate course designated as a CMRS Center for Early Global Studies Research Seminar which provides funding for guest scholars to lecture and work closely with students. Taught by Professor Debora Shuger (English) and Associate Professor Arvind Thomas (English)\, this Research Seminar will look at a diverse range of premodern texts concerning the emergence and expansion of economic thought/ practices and their socio-political\, literary\, religious\, and aesthetic implications. \nQuestions about the event?\nVisit The CMRS Center for Early Global Studies website.

SUMMARY:Book Discussion & Celebration: Justin Torres - Blackouts
DESCRIPTION:Join UCLA English for a book discussion and reception to celebrate Professor Justin Torres and his new novel\, Blackouts. Blackouts is a finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction\, and has been named A Most Anticipated Read by The New York Times\, The Guardian\, Literary Hub\, The Rumpus\, The Bay Area Reporter\, Datebook\, Electric Literature\, The Stacks\, Them\, and Publishers Weekly. \nRegister here to attend the event. \nCreative writing colleagues Fred D’Aguiar\, Mona Simpson and Xuan Juliana Wang will lead the discussion. Light refreshments will follow the event. Please join us to celebrate Justin and his new work! \nSynopsis: \nOut in the desert in a place called the Palace\, a young man tends to a dying soul\, someone he once knew briefly\, but who has haunted the edges of his life. Juan Gay—playful raconteur\, child lost and found and lost\, guardian of the institutionalized—has a project to pass along to this new narrator. It is inspired by a true artifact of a book\, Sex Variants: A Study in Homosexual Patterns\, which contains stories collected in the early twentieth century from queer subjects by a queer researcher\, Jan Gay\, whose groundbreaking work was then co-opted by a committee\, her name buried. As Juan waits for his end\, he and the narrator trade stories—moments of joy and oblivion—and resurrect lost loves\, lives\, mothers\, fathers\, minor heroes. The past is with us\, beside us\, ahead of us; what are we to create from its gaps and erasures? \nInspired by Kiss of the Spider Woman\, Pedro Páramo\, Voodoo Macbeth\, the book at its own center and the woman who created it\, oral histories\, and many more texts\, images\, and influences\, Justin Torres’s Blackouts is a work of fiction that sees through the inventions of history and narrative. An extraordinary work of creative imagination\, it insists that we look long and steady at the world we have inherited and the world we have made—a world full of ghostly shadows and flashing moments of truth. \nQuestions about the event?\nEmail: englishevents@ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Jillian + Mariko Tamaki Book Talk: Roaming
DESCRIPTION:Mariko and Jillian Tamaki from Drawn & Quarterly will discuss their new graphic novel\, Roaming. Books will be available for purchase following the event. \nRegister here to attend the event. \nRoaming marks a triumphant return to the graphic novel and deft foray into new adult fiction for Caldecott Medal-winning authors Jillian Tamaki (Boundless) and Mariko Tamaki (Cold). \nOver the course of a much-anticipated trip to New York\, an unexpected fling blossoms between casual acquaintances and throws a long-term friendship off-balance. Emotional tensions vibrate wildly against the resplendently illustrated backdrop of the city\, capturing a spontaneous queer romance in all of its fledgling glory. Slick attention to the details of a bustling\, intimidating metropolis are softened with a palette of muted pastels\, as though seen through the eyes of first-time travelers. The awe\, wonder\, and occasional stumble along the way all come to life with stunning accuracy in this sumptuous softcover with gorgeous jacket. \nRoaming is the third collaboration from the critically acclaimed team behind Skim and Governor General’s Literary Award winner This One Summer. Moody\, atmospheric\, and teeming with life\, the magic of this comics duo leaks through the pages with lush and exquisite pen work. The Tamakis’ singular\, elegant vision of an urban paradise slowly revealing its imperfections to the tune of its visitors’ rhythms is a masterpiece–a future classic for generations to come. \nQuestions about the event?\nEmail: englishevents@ucla.edu

SUMMARY:The Paranoid Chronotope\, or: How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love Conspiracies
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Professor Frida Beckman will take you on a trip through the contemporary paranoid imaginary. This means a swift but hopefully not too mindboggling tour from the 1950s to the present with flashbacks to Richard von Krafft-Ebing\, detours to Jordan B. Peterson\, and temporary stops along the way at usual suspects such as Michel Foucault\, George Soros\, and Donald Trump. Usual suspects are also Philip K. Dick\, Thomas Pynchon\, and Don DeLillo and together with newer culprits such as Dave Eggers\, Patrick Flanery\, and Ben Lerner they will\, hopefully\, give us some clues to solving the plot to undermine the American liberal subject\, not to mention democracy. \nFrida Beckman is Professor of Literature specializing in American literature at the Department of Culture and Aesthetics at Stockholm University\, Sweden. Recent work includes the monographs The Paranoid Chronotope: Power\, Truth\, Identity (2022) and Culture Control Critique: Allegories of the Present (2016)\, the critical biography Gilles Deleuze (2017)\, and the edited collection Control Culture: Foucault and Deleuze after Discipline (2018).
