- Nov 211:00 AMAuthor Talk/GODZILLA FEST: The Michigan Man Who Translated GodzillaCelebrate Godzilla's 70th anniversary with a talk by Professor Jeffrey Angles, Western Michigan University, who translated the Japanese novellas "Godzilla" and "Godzilla Raids Again" by Shigeru Kayama. Jeffrey Angles is a professor of Japanese at Western Michigan University. He is the author of "Writing the Love of Boys" (Minnesota, 2011) and award-winning translator of Orikuchi Shinobu’s "The Book of the Dead" (Minnesota, 2017) and Hiromi Ito’s "The Thorn Puller." His book of poetry, "My International Date Line" (Watashi no hizukehenkosen ), won the 2017 Yomiuri Prize for Literature, making Jeffrey the first American to win this prestigious prize. Godzilla Fest is a celebration of the 70th anniversary of the 1954 release of the film "Godzilla" by Toho Studios in Tokyo. The giant monster, who attacked Japan after being awakened by hydrogen bomb testing, went on to become a global icon. Godzilla has starred in 38 films and has appeared in comic books, games, novelizations, advertisements, toys, and more. The king of the monsters has also been interpreted widely as a symbol for the destructive nature of humankind—from nuclear war to climate change. Godzilla Fest is organized by the Liu Institute for Asia and Asian Studies at the University of Notre Dame, the St. Joseph County Public Library, and the Browning Cinema at Notre Dame's DeBartolo Performing Arts Center.

- Nov 512:30 PMTalk—"Bangladesh 2024: Protest, Politics, Possibilities"The July 2024 uprising in Bangladesh has been deemed unprecedented because of its success in deposing a leader whose grip on power seemed unshakable. Angry students steered the opposition who turned their dissatisfaction with a court decision about government job allocation into a one-point demand for the resignation of the prime minister. In a matter of weeks, and in the face of excessive state violence, droves of ordinary citizens came out on the streets and joined the protests. While the speed and manner in which the events unfolded is unprecedented, the student as political agent has a longer history in the political culture of the region. Based on conversations with student activists and leaders, this talk will situate the 2024 uprising within this larger context while identifying the shifts in the performative, aesthetic, and linguistic aspects of the July protests that aimed to draw a sharp line with the past.
