SUMMARY:1930's FIlm Series: "Chapaev (1934)"
DESCRIPTION:An important example of socialist realism in Soviet cinema\, Chapaev charts the ideological development and refinement of Chapaev (Boris Babochkin)\, a charismatic leader of a Red Army division. Under the guidance of his accompanying Party commissar\, Dmitri Furmanov (Boris Blinov)\, the impetuous and proud Chapaev learns important lessons in the dialectic of spontaneity and consciousness. Released on the seventeenth anniversary of the October revolution and directed by Georgii and Sergei Vasil’ev (often referred to as the Vasil’ev Brothers\, even though they weren’t fraternally related)\, Chapaev was the most popular Soviet film of its time and a huge hit internationally. Not to be missed! \n\n\n\nFor the remainder of the quarter\, we will be showing 1930s films from different countries each week. Same time\, same place. All are welcome. Tell your family\, invite your friends.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Katherine Gordy: "Situated Theory: Radical Political Thought in Latin America"
DESCRIPTION:Katherine Gordy’s current book project traces the interrelations between what she identifies as different “spheres” of Cuban political thought—political doctrine (official sphere)\, political theory (academic sphere)\, and daily practice (popular sphere)—in order to challenge accounts that treat Cuban socialist ideology as solely state-originated dogma or as necessarily in opposition to academic and popular forms of political thought. \nKatherine Gordy is Assistant Professor at San Francisco State University in the Department of Political Science. \n

SUMMARY:Korea Peace Day
DESCRIPTION:Santa Cruz Korea Peace Day 2013 \n“No Gun Ri: No Reconciliation Without Truth”\nLecture by Charles Hanley\n(Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist) \nScreening of Memory of Forgotten War\nA film by Deann Borshay Liem and Ramsay Liem< \nAdditional Speakers: Paul Liem (Korea Policy Institute)\, Sarah Sloan (ANSWER Coalition)\, and Stephen McNeil (American Friends Services Committee) \nAbout the talk: Although South Korea’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission has investigated many of more than 200 alleged cases of what it categorizes as civilian massacres committed by U.S. soldiers during the Korean War\, a war that has yet to be ended with a peace treaty\, the U.S. government has investigated only one\, the refugee killings at No Gun Ri. The U.S. government’s 300-page report on that inquiry exonerated the U.S. military of wrongdoing. President Clinton stated that the evidence was not clear that there was responsibility “high enough in the chain of command.” In reporting their findings\, however\, the U.S. Army investigators ignored and left undisclosed many of the most relevant documents and testimony. The most significant example is the “Muccio letter\,” in which the U.S. ambassador to South Korea informed the State Department that the Army\, fearing infiltrators\, had decided to fire on South Korean refugees approaching U.S. lines despite warning shots. The No Gun Ri carnage began the next day. \nAbout the speaker: Charles J. Hanley is a retired journalist with more than 40 years’ experience as reporter and editor\, largely internationally. As an Associated Press special correspondent from the late 1970s to 2011\, he reported from some 100 countries on stories ranging from summit conferences and arms negotiations to climate change and the plight of a threatened tribe in New Guinea. He also reported from a dozen war zones\, including extensively from Afghanistan and Iraq beginning in 2002. He served as AP assistant and deputy managing editor in 1987-92. In 1998-99\, he was part of the Associated Press investigative team that confirmed the U.S. military’s large-scale killing of South Korean refugees at No Gun Ri in 1950\, early in the Korean War. That work earned the team a Pulitzer Prize and 11 other major national and international journalism awards. Hanley’s reporting was recognized with a half-dozen other major awards over the years. \nAbout the film: Four Korean American survivors testify to the brutality of the Korean War and the pain of divided families\, 60 years later.  Interwoven with the history of the war\, their stories speak loudly for a long overdue end to the unresolved Korean War. \n  \nCo-sponsored by the Institute for Humanities Research\, the Asian American and Pacific Islander Resource Center\, the Department of History\, the Department of Film and Digital Media\, Cowell College\, Stevenson College\, the Korea Policy Institute\, and the American Friends Services Committee. \nFree and open to the public.  For more information\, please contact Christine Hong (cjhong@ucsc.edu).

SUMMARY:Living Writers Series: Carolyn Cooke
DESCRIPTION:Thresholds and Breaking Points \nThe writers in this series will present across multiple genres\, to include poetry\, fiction\, criticism\, and various hybrid genres. Each will explore ways that language tests thresholds of culture\, race\, nation\, sex\, gender\, and desire through the creative imagination. Central to each will be how these thresholds are performed\, tested\, broken\, clarified and complicated in their works. \nCarolyn Cooke’s novel Daughters of the Revolution was listed among the best novels of 2011 by the San Francisco Chronicle and The New Yorker Magazine.  Her short fiction\, collected in The Bostons\, won the PEN/Bingham Award\, and has appeared in AGNI\, The Paris Review\, Ploughshares and two volumes each of Best American Short Stories and O. Henry Prize Stories. Her new collection\, Amor & Psycho\, was published by Alfred A. Knopf this summer. Carolyn directs the MFA programs at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco. \nLocation and Time: All Readings located at Kresge Town Hall 466 | 6-7:45pm \nThe Living Writers Series is co-sponsored by the Porter College George Hitchcock Poetry Fund\, a Poets & Writers through the grant from the James Irvine Foundation\, the Literature Department and the Creative Writing Program\, Morton Marcus Memorial Poetry Reading\, and a Laurie Sain Creative Writing Endowment.

SUMMARY:Anna Szabolcsi: "What do quantifier particles do?"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In Szabolcsi (2010: Ch 12.5) and subsequent work I embarked on a program to investigate the compositional semantics of quantifier words. Taking apart someone and everyone and specifying what the quantifier particles and the indeterminate pronoun mean are not daunting tasks. The interesting part of the project begins when we observe that in many languages\, the “quantifier particles” also serve in multiple other roles\, and set out to investigate whether and how the same interpretations extend to those contexts. Best-known is the case of Japanese\, where “someone” (dare-ka) is formed with the morpheme ka and “everyone/anyone” (dare-mo) with the morpheme mo\, both of which have busy lives of their own. In addition to indefinites\, ka shows up in disjunctions (John-ka Mary(-ka)) and questions (Dare-ga VP ka; John-ga VP ka) . In addition to universals\, mo serves as an additive and scalar particle (John-mo) and shows up in distributive conjunctions (John-mo Mary-mo). Hungarian vala/vagy\, –e\, mind\, and is exhibit very similar behavior. A natural first stab is to observe that members of the cross-linguistic KA family are join operators\, whereas members of the MO family are meet operators. This talk will confront a particular problem for that interpretation: the fact that in many constructions multiple copies of the same particle occur. A semantic approach will be proposed. \nAnna Szabolsci is Professor of Linguistics at New York University.

SUMMARY:Billy Collins: "Aimless Love"
DESCRIPTION:Bookshop Santa Cruz is delighted to welcome two-term U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins for a reading and signing of his new collection\, Aimless Love: New and Selected Poems. Local poet and artist Gary Young\, who teaches at UCSC and was Santa Cruz County’s first Poet Laureate\, will introduce Mr. Collins. \nBilly Collins is famous for conversational\, witty poems that welcome readers with humor but often slip into quirky\, tender or profound observation on the everyday\, reading and writing\, and poetry itself. Aimless Love combines more than fifty new poems with selections from four previous books—Nine Horses\, The Trouble with Poetry\, Ballistics\, and Horoscopes for the Dead. By turns playful\, ironic\, and serious\, Collins’s poetry captures the nuances of everyday life while leading the reader into zones of inspired wonder. In the poet’s own words\, he hopes that his poems “begin in Kansas and end in Oz.” Touching on the themes of love\, loss\, joy\, and poetry itself\, these poems showcase the best work of this “poet of plenitude\, irony\, and Augustan grace” (The New Yorker).\n  \nThis offsite event will take place at UCSC Music Recital Hall. Parking is $3\, but is located next to the venue and is easily accessible. \nPeople with disabilities needing assistance are asked to contact us in advance: email bookshopevents@yahoo.com or call 46-3232\nPLEASE NOTE: Tickets will be sold by row\, with open seating within each row. If you are planning on attending this event with others\, you will want to purchase tickets as a group if you’d like to sit next to each other.\n  \nTICKETS: $28.30\, includes one ticket to the event & one copy of Aimless Love. \nPurchase Tickets\n  \nAuthor photo courtesy of Suzannah Gilman
