SUMMARY:Book Presentation: Náo É Isto Um Livro
DESCRIPTION:BOOK PRESENTATION: NÃO É ISTO UM LIVRO/ NO ES ESTO UN LIBRO BY PATRÍCIA LINO (EDICIONES VESTIGIO\, COLOMBIA 2020) \nNOVEMBER 20\, 2020\, 3:30PM \nZOOM LINK: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9654492228 \nPresenter: Jerónimo Pizarro (Universidad de los Andes) \n  \nNão é isto um livro/ No es esto un libro collects several of the poems that the Portuguese poet and scholar Patrícia Lino published\, performed\, and exhibited across five different countries. Published in Colombia in 2020\, this anthology and bilingual edition was edited by Ediciones Vestigio and was translated by Jerónimo Pizarro\, an expert in Portuguese literature and Professor at Universidad de los Andes. According to the Portuguese critic and literature scholar Pedro Eiras\, Patrícia Lino creates new languages. Besides her interdisciplinary work\, in which she combines various forms of expressions and media — from videopoetry\, music\, to performance —\, Lino is also the author of poetry that contends with satirical\, political\, philosophical\, and empathetic themes. Her poems are the result of an attentive look at society and at the literary canon and the necessity of questioning\, rebuilding\, and undoing language. \nThe event will be held in both Portuguese and Spanish. \n https://edicionesvestigio.com/product/no-es-esto-un-libro/ \nBios \nJerónimo Pizarro is Professor at the Universidad de los Andes and holds the Camões Institute Chair of Portuguese Studies in Colombia. He has a PhD in Hispanic Literatures (2008\, Harvard University) and a PhD in Portuguese Linguistics (2006\, Universidade de Lisboa). He contributed seven volumes to the critical edition of Fernando Pessoa’s Works\, published by the INCM\, the last volume being the first critical edition of the Livro do Desasocego [Book of Disquiet]. Together with Steffen Dix\, he organized Portuguese Modernisms in Literature and the Visual Arts\, which was published by Legenda in 2011. They also co-edited a special issue of Portuguese Studies (2008) and a book of essays\, A Arca de Pessoa [Pessoa’s Trunk] (2007). Pizarro was the Editor-in-Chief of two new Ática’s series (1. Fernando Pessoa | Works; 2. Fernando Pessoa | Studies)\, and he contributed with more than ten volumes. Currently he is in charge of Tinta-da-China’s “Colecção Pessoa”. In 2013 he was the Program Director of Portugal’s visit to the International Book Fair of Bogotá and he won the Eduardo Lourenço Prize. \nPatrícia Lino (Portugal\, 1990) is Assistant Professor of Luso-Brazilian Literatures and cinema at UCLA and the author of Não é isto um livro (2020)\, Manoel de Barros e A Poesia Cínica (2019)\, and Antilógica (2018). She recently directed Anticorpo. A Parody of the Laughable Empire (US 2019) and Vibrant Hands (US 2019). She is also the author of the mixed poetry album I Who Cannot Sing (2020). Lino presented\, published\, and exhibited essays\, poems\, and illustrations in more than six countries. She was one of the Portuguese poets invited to participate in the 2020 Feria del Libro de Bogotá and in the 2020 Fiesta del Libro y la Cultura de Medellín. Her current research focuses on contemporary poetry\, visual and audiovisual culture\, parody and anticolonialism\, and Brazilian film. She also works as a researcher member at the UCLA Latin American Institute and a collaborator at Instituto de Literatura Comparada Margarida Losa. \nTo download flyer\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Book Presentation - Talking Trash: Cultural Uses of Waste
DESCRIPTION:CERS book talk by Maite Zubiaurre (UCLA\, Spanish & Portuguese\, Germanic Languages). \nDiscussants: Charlene Villaseñor Black (UCLA\, Art History and Chicana Studies) and Allison Carruth (UCLA\, English and the Institute for the Environment and Sustainability). \nThursday\, May 28\, 2020\n** Zoom\, 2 – 3:30pm (Pacific Time)**\nRegistration required for attendance.  \nNote: This live event will be recorded and posted on the UCLA Center for European and Russian Studies (CERS) website and Facebook page. By attending this webinar via the Zoom platform\, you are consenting to being recorded. \nMuch has been written about landfills and the monumentality of rubbish\, but little attention has been paid to “litter\,” the small trash that soils the urban pavement\, like the bits of chewing gum that some artists decorate. Talking Trash looks at refuse in its early stages\, when it is still tiny and unassuming\, still lives in the city\, and has yet to grow\, leave the metropolis\, and accumulate in landfills.\nThe chapters of Talking Trash reflect upon the anthropomorphic nature of urban refuse; upon the poetics and semantics of micro-litterscapes and the archives of all things discarded; upon “Dumpsterology\,” or the history of the garbage container as a gendered artifact dense with cultural meaning; and upon “dirty innocence\,” or the complex and contradictory link that ties childhood to muck.\nThe author also focuses on one significant non-urban scene\, the desert landscape and the clothing and other items that immigrants discard as they make a desperate trek across the border. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR:\nMaite Zubiaurre is Associate Dean for Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion\, Humanities Division\, and Professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese and the Department of Germanic Languages at UCLA. Her areas of expertise are Twentieth-century Peninsular literature; European (particularly German) and Latin American Realism; comparative literature; gender studies; urban studies; cultural studies; Latin American women’s fiction; and Latina and Chicana fiction. \nDISCUSSANTS:\nCharlene Villaseñor Black\, whose research focuses on the art of the Ibero-American world\, is Professor of Art History and Chicana/o Studies at UCLA. While much of her research investigates the politics of religious art and global exchange\, she is also actively engaged in the Chicana/o art scene. \nAllison Carruth is an Associate Professor in the Department of English and Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA. Her current research interests include environmental narrative and science communication; the role of artists and writers in American environmental and food justice movements; and the evolving relationships between ecology\, sustainability and engineering in the US since the 1980s. \nBelow are the links to all the necessary information to RSVP and to join via ZOOM. \nCERS webpage with the event announcement: https://www.international.ucla.edu/euro/event/13950 \nFull link to the registration: https://ucla.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_0l_QscF0SfC8pNbP5dIzyQ \nShort link to the registration page): https://ucla.in/3fQytNK \nFacebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/235152641083066/
