SUMMARY:Women in Chinese Silent Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Women in Chinese Silent CinemaIn his lecture\, Prof. Pickowicz will screen compelling clips from Chinese silent-era films of the 1920s and 1930s. He’ll emphasize the diverse roles played by women and ask questions about why the women seen on screen\, including such iconic figures as Ruan Lingyu\, Li Lili\, and Wang Renmei\, were far more important than men to the success of Chinese silent cinema. \nTuesday\, May 10\, 3:30 – 5:30 PM\, SSMS 2135

SUMMARY:Koichi Takashima Lecture 2022:  Tawada Yōko -- Translation as Politics\, Translation as Dream
DESCRIPTION:Koichi Takashima Lecture 2022: Tawada Yōko — Translation as Politics\, Translation as Dream \nThe consistent process of disorienting geography\, maps\, and directions in Tawada Yōko’s fiction flies in the face of problematic distinctions between “areas” and the territorial boundaries they imply\, assumptions still often dominant in studies of the “boundary-crossing literature” she is taken to represent. I contend\, rather\, that Tawada invites us to understand the reading of her texts as itself a “project of translation\,” one Roland Barthes once asserted could “only be a dream.” All translation involves assuming uncertainty and risk\, and this I\, contend\, implies the political risks of translation. I put the unstable\, dream-like\, uncanny Tawada text in dialogue with contemporary theorists of translation\, including Emily Apter\, Haun Saussy\, and Gayatri Spivak. \nBrett de Bary is Professor Emerita of Asian Studies and Comparative Literature at Cornell University. Her translation of Tawada Yōko’s Borudò no gikei (2009)\, together with a critical study of the text\, is forthcoming from Columbia University Press in the volume. Tawada Yōko’s The Brother-in-Law in Bordeaux: Translation as Method.  Her essay on Tawada’s Fukushima novel\, The Emissarv (Kentöshi\, 2014) will be published this spring in Tales That Touch\, ed. Brandt and Yildiz (De Gruyter) \nTUESDAY\, MAY 10\, 4 — 5:30P M\nUCSB:  MCCUNE CONFERENCE ROOM
