SUMMARY:IHC Humanities Decanted: Juan Cobo Betancourt
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a dialogue between Juan Cobo Betancourt (History) and Antonio Cortijo (Spanish and Portuguese) about Cobo’s new book\, The Coming of the Kingdom: The Muisca\, Catholic Reform\, and Spanish Colonialism in the New Kingdom of Granada. The Coming of the Kingdom explores the experiences of the Indigenous Muisca peoples of the New Kingdom of Granada (Colombia) during the first century of Spanish colonial rule. Focusing on colonialism\, religious reform\, law\, language\, and historical writing\, Cobo examines the introduction and development of Christianity among the Muisca\, who\, from the 1530s\, found themselves at the center of the invaders’ efforts to transform them into tribute-paying Catholic subjects of the Spanish crown. The book illustrates how successive generations of missionaries and administrators approached the task of drawing the Muisca peoples to Catholicism at a time when it was undergoing profound changes\, and how successive generations of the Muisca interacted with the practices and ideas that the invaders attempted to impose\, variously rejecting or adopting them\, transforming and translating them\, and ultimately making them their own.\n\n\nJuan Cobo Betancourt is Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. His research focuses on questions of religion\, colonialism\, law\, and language in colonial Latin America\, with a focus on the New Kingdom of Granada (modern-day Colombia). Alongside this work\, he co-founded Neogranadina\, a Colombian non-profit foundation devoted to safeguarding the holdings of endangered archives and libraries through digitization\, and to developing digital tools and resources to make them available to broad audiences.\n\n\nRefreshments will be served.\n\n\nCosponsored by the IHC’s Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:IHC Key Passages Talk: Translating Ovid’s Metamorphoses
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Stephanie McCarter will discuss her recent translation of Ovid’s Metamorphoses (Penguin\, 2022). She will first address her tactics for transforming Ovid’s poetic and metrical effects into English verse. She will then outline her strategies for interpreting and rendering Ovid’s themes of sexual violence\, gender\, sexuality\, and the body. She will consider throughout how she carefully negotiated Ovid’s playful style and disturbing subject matter to produce a poetic\, accurate\, and ethical translation.\n\n\nStephanie McCarter is a professor of Classics at the University of the South in Sewanee\, TN. Her works of translation include Horace’s Epodes\, Odes\, and Carmen Saeculare (University of Oklahoma Press\, 2020) and Ovid’s Metamorphoses (Penguin Classics\, 2022)\, which won the 2023 Harold Morton Landon Translation Award from the Academy of American Poets. She also recently edited and contributed translations to Women in Power (Penguin Classics\, 2024)\, an anthology of classical myths and stories about ancient female rulers.\n\n\nCosponsored by the IHC’s Key Passages series and Hester and Cedric Crowell Endowment

SUMMARY:IHC Key Passages Talk: The Making of Ghost Village
DESCRIPTION:This talk will take you into the process of creating a new\, experimental opera based on a historical ghost story from Pu Songling’s seventeenth-century Chinese masterpiece\, Liaozhao’s Strange Tales (Liaozhai zhiyi). Entitled Ghost Village\, the opera is a creative collaboration between Judith Zeitlin\, as scholar and English language librettist\, and the composer Yao Chen\, a China-based\, Chicago-trained professor of composition at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing.\n\n\nBuilding on the European operatic tradition\, Ghost Village also evokes Chinese aesthetic and theatrical sensibilities. The eerily beautiful wedding scene\, for example\, draws inspiration from the rich Chinese tradition of spirit marriage and female ghosts. Though set in the past\, this opera speaks to many pressing issues in today’s world\, particularly war\, terrorism\, the refugee crisis\, and the general suffering of innocent individuals through political violence. At the same time\, Ghost Village builds on the long operatic tradition centered on love that crosses the boundaries of life and death\, exemplified by such foundational early works such as Tang Xianzu’s Peony Pavilion (1598)\, and Monteverdi’s Orfeo (1607).\n\n\nJudith T. Zeitlin is the William R. Kenan\, Jr. Professor in the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at the University of Chicago. A scholar of early modern Chinese literature\, her innovative work combines literary history with other disciplines\, including visual and material culture\, theater\, music\, medicine\, gender studies\, and film. Her many publications include The Phantom Heroine: Ghosts and Gender in Seventeenth-Century Chinese Literature (2007)\, Historian of the Strange: Pu Songling and the Chinese Classical Tale (1993)\, and co-edited works such as Writing and Materiality in China (2000)\, Thinking in Cases: Specialist Knowledge in Chinese Cultural History (2007)\, Chinese Opera Film (2010)\, and The Voice as Something More: Essays toward Materiality (2019).\n\n\nCosponsored by the IHC’s Key Passages series and Hester and Cedric Crowell Endowment\n\n \n\n\nImage courtesy of Judith Zeitlin
