SUMMARY:The Letters of Ralph Ellison: "Who Knows But That On the Lower Fr

DESCRIPTION:Ralph Ellison's letters are fascinating. \; \; Writte
n over 60 years from his college days at Tuskegee in 1933 to shortly 
\; before his death in April 1994\, the letters\, directly and indirectly
\, provide rich commentary on American society as it evolved from a Jim C
row\, still largely rural society to an urban digital America where integ
ration had long since become the law of the land\, if not its reality.
60\; Ellison's letters are a complex portrait of his development as a man
who insisted that his identity was indelibly black (Negro was his word o
f choice into the 1980s) and American. \; Many of his letters also of
fer some of his most candid\, incisive comments about what he was strivin
g for in his fiction\, both the classic\, Invisible Man\, and the immense
second novel he left unfinished at his death. \; Professor John C
allahan will discuss how Ellison's letters\, when published in 2016\, wil
l become an indispensable autobiographical source for new interpretations
of his essays and fiction as well as for understanding the America he li
ved in and helped shape. \; The letters will be the centerpiece of th
e ENG 333-2 Major Figures course Callahan is teaching this coming spring.

SUMMARY:Johnny Stallings Presents "King Lear"
DESCRIPTION:This is an encore performance of Johnny Stallings' solo versi
on of King Lear. Stallings first performed his solo version of King Lear
in the spring of 1978\, thanks to a grant from the Metropolitan Arts Comm
ission of Portland. Since then\, he has performed in schools\, theaters\,
prisons\, and at the Cornelia Connell Theater in New York. Stallings'&#
160\; performance of King Lear is a no-frills version that will amaze and
fascinate. Without trivial things like sets\, props\, costumes\, and oth
er actors cluttering up the stage\, you'll find your brain forced to conc
entrate on nothing but the words themselves\, which–according to Johnny
–is not such a bad thing: "It's arguably the best poetry in any languag
e\," he says reverently. It takes great skill to make Shakespeare this ap
proachable\, and above all else\, his grasp of the language is impeccable
. Stallings glosses over sections of King Lear with summary asides\, and
handles the dialogue scenes by simply moving to different parts of the ro
om\, distinguishing the different characters with only the smallest varia
tions in posture and tone. The result should be clumsy and awkward\, but
the precision of his line readings\, combined with his quirky sense of hu
mor\, makes it fluid. In prior years\, this has been a standing-room-onl
y event. \; Please arrive early to get a seat. \; Refreshments t
o be provided.

and readers. Although he is best known as a novelist\, Ondaatje's work a

fying conventional form. His transcendent novel The English Patient explo
res the stories of people history fails to reveal by intersecting four di

ers. And having won the British Commonwealth's highest honor\, the Booker
Prize\, he has taken his rightful place as a contemporary literary treas
ure. He is the author of four collections of poetry including The Cinnam
on Peeler and most recently\, Handwriting. His works of fiction include I
n the Skin of a Lion\, The English Patient\,Anil's Ghost\, Divisadero\, a
nd The Cat's Table. Ondaatje's work of non-fiction is The Conversations:
Walter Murch and the Art of Editing Film\, which unites his love of liter
ature and passion for the art of filmmaking. Ondaatje is also a filmmake
r\, creator of 3 documentary films in the 1970s. The Clinton Special: A F
ilm about the Farm Show (1974) is about a group of actors who went into a
n Ontario farming community to build a play about what they saw and learn
ed. Sons of Captain Poetry (1970) is about the poet bpNichol. Carry On Cr

SUMMARY:"Immersion"\, A Lecture by Dr. Warren Motte
DESCRIPTION:"What happens to us when we immerse ourselves in the fictions
we read\, suspending our normal manners of being? I am interested in th
e way that fiction recognizes that immersive potential\, and comments up
on it. In my talk\, I shall visit a few passages of that sort from write
rs such as Jean-Philippe Toussaint\, Don DeLillo\, Lewis Carroll\, Christ
ine Montalbetti\, Tanguy Viel\, Michael Innes\, Hélène Lenoir\, and Pi
erre Bayard. I shall argue for a theory of reading founded in pragmatics
\, one that recognizes that we may immerse ourselves as deeply as we wis
h in the fictions we read\, while never abdicating our critical responsi
bilities." Professor of French and Comparative Literature at the Univers
ity of Colorado-Boulder\, Dr. Warren Motte specializes in contemporary wr
iting\, with particular focus upon experimentalist works that put accepte
d notions of literary form into question. In 2015\, he was named Chevalie
r dans l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques by the French government. In 2016\
, he was named College Professor of Distinction by the University of Colo
rado\, a title "reserved for scholars and artists of national and interna
tional distinction who are also recognized by their College peers as teac
hers and colleagues of exceptional talent."Co-sponsored with the Departm

SUMMARY:Realist Montage: Reinventing Modernism at the Mid-Century.
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin Kohlmann is Assistant Professor of English at Freibu
rg University\, Germany\, having previously held a postdoctoral fellowshi
p at the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia Uni
versity. \; This lecture is co-sponsored by the English and History d
epartments. Realist Montage: Reinventing Modernism at the Mid-Century B
ritish literature of the \;mid-twentieth century is often described i
n terms of a contrast between a residual or moribund modernism and a 
\;resurgent realism. This paper seeks to complicate our understanding of
mid-century literary history by identifying a distinct tradition of reali
st writing that repurposed formal experimentation in order to open up new
futures for modernism rather than anticipating its end. Responding to th
e historical challenges and political pressures of the mid-century\, this
neglected tradition can prompt us to rethink the political charge of mod
ernist formal experimentation\, but it also usefully defamiliarises the c
ategories that we typically use in talking about British literature betwe
en 1930-1960.

SUMMARY:Eric Schlosser\, Bestselling Author of Fast Food Nation & Com
mand and ControlÂ
DESCRIPTION:Eric Schlosser explores subjects ignored by the mainstream me
dia and tries to give a voice to people at the margins of society. As an
investigative journalist\, he's followed the harvest with migrant farm wo
rkers in California\, spent time with meatpacking workers in Texas and Co
lorado\, told the stories of marijuana growers and pornographers and the
victims of violent crime\, gone on duty with the New York Police Departme
nt Bomb Squad\, and visited prisons throughout the United States. His aim
is to shed light on worlds that are too often hidden. His work defies ea
sy categorization\, earning praise from a wide variety of publications li
ke the Nation\, Fortune\, The Financial Times\, and the National Review.&
#160\; As an author\, Schlosser's recent book\, Command and Control (201
3) reveals the details of America's effort to prevent nuclear weapons fro
m being stolen\, sabotaged\, or detonated by accident. Command and Contro
l was a finalist for the 2014 Pulitzer Prize (History)\, a New York Times
Notable Book and bestseller\, a Time Magazine Top 10 Nonfiction Book\, a
nd won the Gold Medal Award (Nonfiction) from the 2013 California Book Aw
ards. Schlosser has spoken on the subject of nuclear weapon safety at the
United Nations\, the US House of Representatives\, the Parliaments of th
e United Kingdom\, Sweden\, and Norway\, the Sandia National Laboratory\,
and the headquarters of the National Nuclear Security Administration. Hi
s New Yorker article\, "Break-In at Y-12" explores the risk of nuclear te
rrorism by telling the story of three Catholic pacifists who broke into o
ne of the most heavily guarded nuclear weapon facilities in the world. It
was later expanded and published in book form as Gods of Metal (2015) in
the United Kingdom\, New Zealand\, and Australia. \; As a filmmaker
\, Schlosser was involved with two films that premiered at the 2016 Tribe
ca Film Festival: he was a producer of Command and Control\, a documentar
y based on his book and directed by Robert Kenner\; and he was a co-creat
or of The Bomb\, a multimedia piece about nuclear weapons. The Bomb featu
red a film projected on large screens fully surrounding the audience\, an
imation\, lighting effects\, and the live performance of an original scor
e by The Acid\, an electronica band. Entertainment Weekly called it "A st
unning\, avant-garde approach to a plea for nuclear disarmament…a uniqu
e and dazzling event." The Bomb is available to view on Netflix\, iTunes\
, Vimeo\, and Amazon. \; Schlosser's first book\, Fast Food Nation (
2001)\, helped start a revolution in how Americans think about what they
eat. It has been translated into more than twenty languages and remained
on the New York Times bestseller list for two years. His second book\, Re
efer Madness (2003)\, looks at America's thriving underground economy. It
was also a New York Times bestseller. Chew on This (2006)\, a New York T
imes bestselling children's book\, co-written with Charles Wilson\, intro
duced young readers to the health effects of fast food and the workings o
f industrial agriculture. Schlosser's next book\, The Great Imprisonment
(Tim Duggan Books/Crown\, 2018)\, will describe how the United States cam
e to have the largest prison system in the history of mankind—and how t
hat system affects every one of us. \; Earlier in his career\, Schlo
sser was a playwright and worked for an independent film company. Two of
Schlosser's plays have been produced in London: Americans (2003) at the A
rcola Theatre and We the People (2007) at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. Sc
hlosser served as an executive producer and co-wrote the feature film Fas
t Food Nation (2006)\, directed by Richard Linklater. Their screenplay wa
s named one of the best of the year by New York Times critics A.O. Scott
and Mahnola Dargis. Schlosser was an executive producer of There Will Be
Blood (2008)\, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. He was a co-producer and
the co-narrator of the Oscar-nominated documentary\, Food\, Inc.\, direc
ted by Robert Kenner. In 2014 Schlosser served as an executive producer o
n two documentaries. Food Chains sheds light on the wage theft\, physical
abuse and outright slavery that constitutes everyday life for thousands
of America's (mostly Latino) farm workers. Hanna Ranch looks at the pligh
t of American ranchers and celebrates the life of Kirk Hanna\, an "eco-co
wboy" who raised cattle while respecting the land. \;

DESCRIPTION:Dixon Award Presentation by Katie MitcheltreeFemale voices ar

belief that those who have not experienced combat cannot understand it\,
and therefore cannot communicate it to others. According to this "combat
gnosticism\," only soldiers who fought in the trenches can write war poe
try. But what of those non-combatants who worked close enough to the fron
t that they were under direct threat from gunfire and artillery? What of
those who dealt directly with the bloody aftermath of the war's most deva
stating battles? Mary Borden\, who published several poems while working
at a field hospital on the Western front\, is one such case.Katie travele
d to two archives over the summer of 2018 to examine the papers of Ms. Bo
rden: the Howard Gotlieb Archival Research Center at Boston University\,

den Zone\, poems Borden wrote while stationed at the battle of the Somme\
, as well as personal correspondence and letters exchanged between Borden
