Film | Rebel Without a Cause (1955) with James Dean


After moving to a new town, troublemaking teen Jim Stark is supposed to have a clean slate, although being the new kid in town brings its own problems. While searching for some stability, Stark forms a bond with a disturbed classmate, Plato, and falls for local girl Judy. However, Judy is the girlfriend of neighborhood tough, Buzz. When Buzz violently confronts Jim and challenges him to a drag race, the new kid's real troubles begin. Director: Nicholas Ray Cast: Natalie Wood, James Dean, Sal Mineo, Jim Backus, Ann Doran, Corey Allen, Wiliam Hopper, Dennis Hopper James Dean (1931-1955) was an American actor who is remembered as a cultural icon of teenage disillusionment and social estrangement, as expressed in the title of his most celebrated film, Rebel Without a Cause. The other two roles that defined his stardom were loner Cal Trask in East of Eden (1955) and surly ranch hand Jett Rink in Giant (1956). After his death in a car crash on September 30, 1955, Dean became the first actor to receive a posthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Actor for his role in East of Eden. Upon receiving a second nomination for his role in Giant the following year, Dean became the only actor to have had two posthumous acting nominations. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked him the 18th best male movie star of Golden Age Hollywood in AFI's "100 Years...100 Stars" list.

Book Discussion | Race and the Colour-Line: The Boundaries of Europeanness in Poland


Bolaji Balogun’s forthcoming book sets out the foundational ideas about race and colonialism in Poland and relates them to the global manifestations that influenced them. Focusing on race and colonialism, the talk indicates a shift in global racial discourse – an understanding of the specificity of Polish racism that can transform and add to our understandings of race in the West. In doing so, the talk offers a brief theoretical and historical context of race-making in the so-called ‘peripheral sphere’, whilst outlining the ways in which race and colonialism have been framed specifically in early modern Poland and its empire in the Atlantic world. To do this effectively, Balogun draws on archival resources – manuscripts, documents, and records – from Poland and other parts of Europe to theorize what he identifies as the three key manifestations of race and colonialism in Poland, namely Colonial global economy; Colonization; and Eugenics. These key manifestations allow me to recall discussions on race and colonialism from the margin to the centre in order to redirect them beyond the prevailing accounts of race and colonialism in the West. The talk excavates the veiled racialized and colonial structures within the Polish histories as a way of remapping the politics of race-making in Europe.

Discussion | Inclusive or Expansive Gender Language?: Comparing Experiences Within and Outside Social Media (online)


Gender is embedded deep in language, even in languages such as English which do not assign a gender to all the things it names. While it might not be the top priority of trans, intersex and gender diverse people, changing language matters if we are to be included in the situations it describes and manages. That even the smallest modifications to language usage attracts derision and anger points to the stubborn persistence of both linguistic and gendered norms, and their connection.

Lecture | Where Does the Silk Road End?: Power, Recognition and the Aesthetics of Prestige


Scholars often define prestige as "reputation for power" and argue for its significance in the context of high-stakes negotiations, the dynamics of power transition, or (bi-polar) competition to attract allies and partners. It has been argued that for international relations prestige is "enormously important" - even more so than power itself. This is because "if your strength is recognized, you can generally achieve your aims without having to use it." But whereas some correctly conceptualize the power of prestige in driving desired outcomes, there is yet little attention to what exactly it means for strength to be "recognized," and who is doing the recognizing. This talk interrogates the links between prestige and recognition from the vantage point of the politics of aesthetics. Speaker Marina Jose Kaneti is Assistant Professor in International Affairs.

Book Discussion | Stay This Day and Night with Me: A Plot to Influence Google (online)


Belen Gopegui's book is the story of Olga, a retired mathematician, and Mateo, a college student passionate about robotics, and their plot to influence Google. After a chance encounter at the public library, two new friends begin to meet up regularly. Together they decide to submit an application for Google sponsorship to an elite technology-training program. Hoping to stand out, they frame their submission as a direct appeal to the "conscience" of the seemingly all-powerful corporation. Olga, a retired entrepreneur, and Mateo, a college student, find unexpected connection and solace in their conversations. Ideas and arguments open into personal stories as they debate the possibility of free will, the existence of merit, and the role of artificial intelligence. They ask the most basic and important of questions: What does it mean to be human in a reality shaped by data and surveillance? Is there still space for empathy and care? What could we be, what could we build, if we used our resources in different ways?

Discussion | Early Modern Laments Across Reception and Performances


This event brings together modern literary scholars, classicists, musicologists and performers in order to assess the productive ways in which reception and performance inform one another. The keynote and the roundtable will focus on the lament as a long-lasting performative trope that, over the centuries, has triggered forms of artistic experimentation across poetry, music, and vocal expression. The panel will be followed by a musical program entitled Ariadne’s Echo: An Exploration of Musical Hauntings. Organized by Prof. Eugenio Refini, Viva Voce is a series of events – conversations, talks, book discussions – that address the intersections of voice, performance and the mechanisms of reception.

Lecture | Internet Freedom in Russia: An Infrastructural Approach


Over the past decade, internet freedom in Russia has dramatically declined as a result of the state’s repressive policies and enhanced digital surveillance and censorship capacities. Yet, looking at the Russian state provides only a partial picture and risks obscuring the agency of various domestic and foreign (private) actors in shaping these processes. This talk shifts focus to the implementation and enforcement of restrictive Internet policies in Russia to examine how the actions of, among others, platform companies can enable, shape or constrain how these policies impact internet freedom. Speaker Dr. Mariëlle Wijermars is Assistant Professor in Cyber-Security and Politics.

Opening Reception | Jonathan Ryan: Bad Lands


Sweeping plains interspersed with jagged, pyramidal slopes and silky bodies of water delineate the painterly topographies of Jonathan Ryan’s abstracted landscapes. Devoid of inhabitants, their rampant stillness and serenity conjure timelines rooted in a forsaken, archeological past while simultaneously being pulled into a hypothetical, distant future. Mankind’s ongoing project of mining and occupying terrains is indirectly referenced, as the product of industrialized processes – pulverized rocks, sand, and minerals – are cemented with oil paint onto the canvas substrate, portraying textural peaks and valleys that hearken to deposit mounds of quarries in addition to naturally occurring land formations. In Bad Lands, this tension between the earthly and artificially constructed compound within Ryan’s world-building, shaped by the metaphysical space of memories of moving through landscapes inasmuch as the tangible literalness of his materials. Seen over multiple works, the schematization of terra forms prescribes a cerebral map of a ritualized commute, its commuter knowing intuitively to make a left turn after the trapezoidal hill, and to hang a right following a pair of bowl-shaped craters. In a subtle nod to the 1989 video game Super Off Road, Ryan demarcates these meandering routes with brightly-hued barricades that approximate the closed loops of racetracks. As the viewer journeys alongside the artist, repetitious elements begin to take a backseat while experiential variables – the cast of a shadow on a particular hour of the day - allow one to re-discover rote paths anew.

Opening Reception | Zoya Cherkassky: The Arrival of Foreign Professionals


A solo exhibition of new paintings by Ukraine-born, Israel-based artist Zoya Cherkassky. In her latest works, Cherkassky offers up vibrant figurative compositions to depict scenes of African diasporic communities in Europe, Israel, and the USSR from the 1930s to the present day. Based upon historical research and the artist’s own memories, these paintings examine cross cultural encounters from disparate times and locations. Cherkassky’s personal experiences as the wife of a Nigerian emigrant and mother of a mixed-race child simultaneously inform her perspective and complicate her relationship to the subjects she portrays. Aware of the challenges that come with presenting these works in America—a nation whose own history of African enslavement and white supremacy remains entrenched— Cherkassky aims to engage viewers in open conversation about the aftermath of failed colonial projects.

Lecture | Feminism as a Politics of Articulation: bell hooks and the Trouble of Identities


Focusing on a historical and critical reading of bell hook’s work, the lecture will analyze the feminist problem of the interconnection of sex, race, and class incontemporary neoliberal society. hooks’ understanding of the ideological function of mass media highlights the link between representation and social reproduction, which is in turn critical to grasp the tension between politicization and commodification of identities. On this analytical basis, “the margin” emerges as an epistemic and political stance, which both allows to understand the polemical function of history and memory, and to regard feminism as a politics of articulation.   Speaker Paola Rudan is Associate Professor in History of Political Thought at the Department of History, University of Bologna.

Talk | Writing Against the War


A talk with Mikhail Shishkin. Moderated by Mark Lipovetsky. Mikhail Shishkin is a prominent author of fiction and essays. His work has been recognized with multiple awards, including the Russian Booker, the National Bestseller Prize, the Big Book Prize, and, most recently, the Italian Strega Prize. He is a longstanding and outspoken critic of the Putin regime, whose essays have been published in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Le Monde, and elsewhere. Since 1995, he has lived and worked in Switzerland. Nowadays, he is among intellectuals globally representing Russian culture alternative to nationalism and war. When asked about the subject of his lecture, he defined it as follows: “It hurts to be Russian. My language, the language of Pushkin and Tolstoy, Tsvetaeva and Brodsky has become the language of war criminals and murderers. My country, blessed with stunning nature and wonderful culture, keeps turning into a monster that devours its own and other countries’ children — why? The aim of Russia’s “special military operation” is to destroy democratic Ukraine. The result will be the destruction of Putin’s Russia. But what then? Is Putin the disease or just a symptom? Does the way to Bucha lead through Russian literature? What can a writer do?”
