SUMMARY:Sephardi Modernities Seminar Series\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Belzberg Program in Israel Studies at the University of Calgary and the Schusterman Center for Israel Studies at Brandeis University\, with the collaboration of the American Sephardi Federation\, Centro Sefarad Israel\, and the International Network for Jewish Thought\, present: \nSephardi Modernities Seminar Series\, 2023\n“The Future of Our Histories: Recollecting the Past\, Projecting the Future.” \nJoin us as we explore the relationship between our narratives about the past and the future to which we aspire. The ways in which scholars approach the stories\, events\, characters\, and historical processes of the Sephardi/Levantine past are inevitably guided by values\, by their moral and political beliefs. Which elements of the past do they strive to preserve\, reclaim and grant continuity? What are they trying to say about a potential future? Which stories become part of canonized history\, and which ones are dismissed as mere anecdotes? Which theoretical\, social\, political\, and cultural frameworks do they wrestle with\, and which do they seek to advance? \nOn Zoom \n(Registration is required for each session) \n2 February at 12:00PM EST \nThe Sephardi-Moorish Atlantic: The Two 1492s and the Multi-Chronotope of Orientalism  \nElla Shohat\, New York University\, in conversation with Yuval Evri\, Brandeis University \nSign-up Now!\n14 March at 12:00PM EST \nPreservation of Jewish Heritage and Debating Egypt’s Past and Present \nYoram Meital\, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev \nSign-up Now!\n23 March at 12:00PM EDT \nHow Do Judeo-Spanish Proverbs and Tales Communicate with Us and How Do We Communicate With Them? \nLital Belinko-Sabah\, Hebrew University of Jerusalem \nSign-up Now!\n18 April at 12:00PM EST \n‘Modernity’ and ‘Tradition’ on the Move: Spanish Moroccan Jews and their Diasporas \nAviad Moreno\, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev\, in conversation with Angy Cohen\, University of Calgary \nSign-up Now!\n9 May at 12:00PM EST \nSephardi Musical Modernities: Listening to the Past in the Future \nEdwin Seroussi\, Hebrew University of Jerusalem \nYair Dalal\, Composer\, violinist\, oud player\, singer\, and teacher \nSign-up Now!\n \nThroughout this year’s series we will discuss the future invoked by each way of looking at the past\, the political agendas of historical research\, and the values that unavoidably guide scholastic inquiry. Topics include the transmission of narratives among collectives and among researchers\, ownership of archives\, encounters with the past\, the academic legitimacy of certain topics and collectives\, vehicles of memory (music\, oral history\, proverbs\, etc.) and the construction of historical narratives. \nOrganized by Dr. Angy Cohen\, Inaugural Hy and Jenny Belzberg Postdoctoral Associate in Israel Studies\, Department of Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Calgary\, and Dr. Yuval Evri\, Assistant Professor of Near Eastern and Judaic Studies on the Marash and Ocuin Chair in Ottoman\, Mizrahi\, and Sephardic Jewish Studies\, Brandeis University.
