SUMMARY:Faculty Ethics Bowl:  Ethics and the Far Future
DESCRIPTION:What role should thinking about the far future—1\,000 years ahead and more—play in research on campus? Faculty at UC Santa Cruz have widely divergent views on this question and it’s something the administration needs to decide on soon. Some say we should allocate significant resources; others say very little. This will be the focus of UC Santa Cruz’s first Faculty Ethics Bowl. \nBut the key here is the Ethics Bowl format. Ethics Bowl is very different from traditional debate. Teams are not automatically pitted against one another\, and are docked for using rhetoric\, spin\, aggression\, and clever rationalization. Rather\, teams are scored on the basis of active listening\, flexibility\, collaboration\, and analytical rigor–critical ingredients for meaningful discussion on difficult topics. \nThis event is free and open to the public\, no RSVP required. \nTeam 1:                                                                                       Team 2:  \n  \nAnthony Aguirre                                                     Pranav Anand\nPhysics                                                                      Linguistics \n  \n  \n  \nSandra Faber                                                          Sylvanna Falcón \nAstronomy & Astrophysics                       Latin American and Latino Studies \n  \n  \n  \nDavid Haussler                                                     Nico Orlandi\nThe Genomics Institute                                         Philosophy \n  \n  \n  \nLed by Associate Professor of Philosophy Jon Ellis\, in conjunction with the Center for Public Philosophy and The Humanities Institute.

SUMMARY:Shadi Rohana: "Cervantes and the Arabs: Don Quixote in translation"
DESCRIPTION:The modern Arab reader cannot be indifferent when reading a novel like Don Quixote. Through its geography\, historical context\, characters and language\, the novel evokes to the modern reader one of the Arabs’ most splendorous historical episodes: Al Andalus. This talk traces the Arab and Andalusian presence in Cervantes’ Don Quixote from 1605\, and how this presence was later translated into modern Arabic during the 20th century. The talk will also discuss the reception of Don Quixote in varios Arabic speaking contexts. \nShadi Rohana is a Mexico City-based literary translator\, translating between Arabic\, Spanish and English. He has introduced and translated a number of Latin American authors from Spanish to Arabic\, as well as speeches and declarations from the EZLN in Chiapas. He pursued Latin American Studies in the United States (Swarthmore College) and Mexico (UNAM)\, and is currently a full-time faculty member at the Center for Asian and African Studies at El Colegio de México\, where he teaches Arabic language and literature. The Arabic translation of José Emilio Pacheco’s Las batallas en el desierto (Palestine\, 2016) was his first novel-length worth \nSpanish: \n“Cervantes y los árabes: Las traducciones del Quijote al árabe” \nShadi Rohana es traductor literario y profesor de tiempo completo en el Centro de Estudios de Asia y África de El Colegio de México. Traduce entre el árabe\, español e inglés. Ha introducido a la lengua árabe a varios escritores latinoamericanos\, así como los comunicados del EZLN en Chiapas. Cursó Estudios Latinoamericanos en los Estados Unidos (Swarthmore College) y México (UNAM). Es traductor al árabe de la novela mexicana Las batallas en el desierto de José Emilio Pacheco (Palestina\, 2016). \nAl leer el Quijote de Miguel de Cervantes\, el lector árabe no puede ser indiferente. En esta novela española del siglo XVII existe un sinnúmero de referencias a la presencia árabe-islámica en la Península ibérica: la geografía\, arabismos\, moriscos\, guerra contra los otomanos\, y personajes que hablan en lengua árabe. Dicha presencia es conocida por los árabes como “Al Ándalus”: un territorio y cultura que se extendió\, de forma cambiante\, en la Península ibérica desde el año 711 hasta la caída de Granada/Ghurnaata en 1492. ¿De qué manera en nuestros días los árabes han leído\, interpretado y traducido aquella presencia de Al Ándalus en el Quijote? Abordaré esta cuestión narrando la historia de las traducciones del Quijote al árabe moderno\, así como la recepción de la novela y sus personajes en varios contextos de habla árabe. \n  \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public. Staff assistance is provided by the Humanities Institute.

SUMMARY:Friday Forum for Graduate Research: Katie Ligmond
DESCRIPTION:The Outcrop of Blue Rocks: Andean Animacy as Illustrated by Guaman Poma \nAndeanists have cultivated an obsession with the illustrations and writing of Guaman Poma\, and with good reason. There are only three truly illuminated manuscript to come out of Colonial Peru\, a scat account in comparison with the plethora from Mexico. Guaman Poma is one of very few Indigenous Peruvian voices that exist in the literary record\, and as we have pored over his words and line drawings\, very few of us have focused on color. This paper analyzes the use of the color blue in the Galvin Murúa\, as it diplicts the rocks as animate\, similarly to water\, and exists as a hidden code to Indigenous readers of this work. \nKatie Ligmond is a second year PhD student in the History of Art and Visual Culture. Her work focuses on the empires of the Andes\, including the Warm. Inka\, and Spanish imperial forces with a focus on their gendered dynamics and the maintenance of  ethic identities. \nFriday Forum for Graduate Research is supported by the Graduate Student Association\, the Humanities Institute\, and the following departments HAVC\, Literature\, History of Consciousness\, Psychology\, and Education. It is a weekly interdisciplinary colloquium series for sharing graduate research across the humanities. \nFor questions email: fridayforum.ucsc@gmail.com
