- Oct 312:30 PMAn invitation to engage: "Exploring Environmental Violence: Perspectives, Experience, Expression, and Engagement"Exploring Environmental Violence: Perspectives, Experience, Expression, and Engagement invites communities to explore violence on the environment as both a concept and phenomena. The contributors to this book represent a wide breadth of scholarly approaches, including law, social and environmental science, engineering, as well as from the arts and humanities. The chapters explore what environmental violence is and does, and the variety of ways in which it affects different communities. The authors draw on empirical data from around the globe, including Ukraine, French Polynesia, Latin America, and the Arctic. Varying responses to environmental violence by different communities, whether through active resistance or the creative arts, are also discussed, providing the foundation on which to build alternatives to the potentially damaging trajectory on which humans currently find themselves.

- Oct 35:00 PMLecture: "Dante’s Chorographies. From the territory to the 'Comedy'"Venice, BNM, Lat. Z 399, c. 98v. Courtesy of the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana in Venice.The Center for Italian Studies is pleased to host a lecture by Dr. Giovanna Corazza (Cà Foscari) titled:Dante’s Chorographies. From the territory to the Comedy Between the 13th and 14th centuries, medieval Italian culture witnessed the emergence of regional and local territorial representations more prominently than in the rest of Europe. This detailed chorography, which developed both in the visual language of cartography and the verbal language of writing, evidently corresponds to the new practices of urban society, playing a central role in the conquest of rural areas and the increase in mobility, thereby engaging in a process of conceptual appropriation of space. Despite the diversity of expressive tools, the graphic and verbal chorography of the early 14th century reflect similar forms of territorial knowledge, based on an odological perspective and the need to reproduce the actual spatial and proportional relationships between the geographical objects represented. Moreover, Dante’s Comedy contains important chorography, composed in the formalized language of poetry. The analysis of these passages reveals construction methods perfectly integrated into the knowledge practices and the culture of territorial representation characteristic of his time. Giovanna Corazza è Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow presso il Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici dell’Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia con il progetto GEODETIC – Geography and Cartography in Dante’s Comedy (GA 101110048), che coinvolge il Dipartimento di Scienze Storiche, Geografiche e dell’Antichità dell’Università di Padova e il Center for Italian Studies della University of Notre Dame. Si interessa principalmente del rapporto tra geografia e letteratura nell’opera di Dante e nella produzione letteraria del XIV secolo, di cultura topografica e cartografica medievale, di interpretazione e ricezione dantesca.

- Oct 35:30 PM"We Need to Talk about Crimea": 2024 Laura Shannon Prize Lecture with Rory FinninThe Nanovic Institute welcomes Rory Finnin, author of Blood of Others: Stalin's Crimean Atrocity and the Poetics of Solidarity (University of Toronto Press, 2022), the recipient of the 2024 Laura Shannon Prize in Contemporary European Studies. Finnin will join the Nanovic Institute to receive the prize and deliver a public lecture to faculty, students, staff, and the general public on October 3, 2024. In the words of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, “this Russian war against Ukraine and against all of free Europe began with Crimea. And it will end with Crimea — with its liberation.” Zelensky’s bold prediction is an urgent reminder. Crimea is the ground zero of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, the largest and most dangerous armed conflict in Europe since the Second World War. In February 2014, Russia’s war began with the military seizure of Crimea; in February 2022 it escalated with a full-scale invasion launched in part from Crimea. In the 2024 Laura Shannon Prize Lecture, Professor Rory Finnin (University of Cambridge) explains the profound significance of Crimea and shares untold stories of local resistance to Russian colonialism, past and present. Through literary and archival sources, he sheds light on the remarkable history and culture of Crimea’s indigenous Sunni Muslim people, the Crimean Tatars. His lecture argues that Ukrainian-Crimean Tatar relations are a key to understanding contemporary Ukraine and its vibrant civic national identity, which may be the most powerful force defending liberal democracy today. About the speaker Rory Finnin is professor of Ukrainian studies at the University of Cambridge. He launched the Cambridge Ukrainian Studies program in 2008. Finnin’s primary research interest is the interplay of culture and identity in Ukraine. His broader research interests include nationalism studies, solidarity studies, and cultural memory in the region of the Black Sea. Finnin is a graduate of St Ignatius High School (Cleveland), Georgetown University (B.A.), and Columbia University (Ph.D.). In 1995-97 he served as a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine.
