Staged Reading | An Evening with Argentine Playwright Romina Paula
Romina Paula is one of Argentina's most celebrated emerging playwrights, winning critical acclaim both at home and abroad, but to date none of her plays have been translated into English. In her work, she breaks down barriers that have traditionally separated artistic genres, not least theatre and film, and investigates the synergies between documentary and fiction, gender and biography, and love and art. Paula's Fauna is a play about the making of a film that will never take place, a film that brings together a daughter, a son, an actor, and a director. Together they will attempt to tell the story of Fauna, a wild but well-read otherworldly being, who over the course of her lifetime transitions to become Fauno. Highly intertextual, reflexive, and subtly ironic, the play explores how to tell the story of one's life, how to capture what is true and real, and how to decipher where reality ends and fiction begins. The evening will feature readings from Paula's translated plays Fauna and The Whole of Time, included in the volume Fauna and Other Plays by Romina Paula.

Lecture | Dante and Cosmology
In the early twentieth century, Albert Einstein discovered that time could stretch and space bend, and a multi-dimensional mathematics would eventually be needed to describe the cosmos that his physics predicted. In this lecture, Professor Egginton shows how, by confronting some of the greatest metaphysical problems of their day, Dante and the theologians and philosophers who inspired him anticipated Einstein's insight in surprising and at times mind-bending ways. Speaker William Egginton is the Decker Professor in the Humanities and Director of the Alexander Grass Humanities Institute at Johns Hopkins University.
