SUMMARY:Creative Entrepreneur in Residence talks programme: Authentic Enough? Opening up the past with selective authenticity
DESCRIPTION:1st December\, 1pm Edith Morley 127 \nAll UoR researchers who might be interested are warmly invited to join the talks in this programme. Do join us for the presentations and a chance for cross disciplinary conversation. \nSome of the world’s biggest entertainment IPs are rooted in historical stories or eras – from TV series like The Last Kingdom\, Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall trilogy\, to video games such as Assassin’s Creed. \nWhilst the past offers clear creative opportunities – a ready-made storyworld and audience familiarity with characters and plot – there is often a tension between historical accuracy and the needs of narrative\, audiences and formats. \nIn this talk we will hear from creatives whose work has addressed these questions in theatre\, games and immersive experiences. We will discuss ‘selective authenticity’\, where situations when historical fact is at odds with popular conceptions of the past are avoided\, to ensure that suspension of disbelief isn’t broken. And will explore the concept of ‘authenticity of experience’ as a means of opening up the past for audiences. \nSpeakers include: \nLuke Holmes is a game designer for Creative Assembly\, producers of the multi-million selling Total War series. Prior to this he has been an interpretation manager at leading heritage attractions\, including the Tower of London and the SS Great Britain\, and is the author of several academic articles on historical gameplay and ludic theory. \nHannah Price is a director and creative director working across theatre\, VR\, digital\, games and events. She is an award winning freelance theatre director\, founder and previous Co-Artistic Director of Theatre Uncut and has directed theatre and immersive events across the world. She is Creative Director of the Gunpowder Plot\, the new 5 star reviewed immersive theatre and VR experience at the Tower of London – and as a BAFTA-winning video game performance director\, she has worked on some of the world’s biggest titles. \nAnd Tim Powell\, the University of Reading’s Creative Entrepreneur in Residence.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: The Women Who Invented Twentieth-Century Children’s Literature
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hybrid in-person/online event to mark the publication of The Women Who Invented Twentieth-Century Children’s Literature: Only the Best (Routledge: Children’s Literature and Culture Series)\, by Elizabeth West\, CBCP ECR Fellow. \nThis event is free and open to all. Join us in the Edith Morley Building\, Room G74\, to be followed by drinks at Park House. To register for the Zoom link\, click here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/424176642757  \nPublishing for children between 1930 and 1960 has been denigrated as a relatively fallow period for creativity and quality\, certainly in comparison with the ‘golden ages’ of children’s literature that preceded and succeeded it. This book questions this perception by using archival evidence to argue that the work of what was predominantly a female group of editors\, illustrators\, authors and librarians (collectively referred to as bookwomen) resulted in many titles which are still considered as ‘classics’ today. The bookwomen reframed ideas about how children’s publishing should be approached and valued and\, in doing so\, laid the foundations for a subsequent generation of children’s authors and publishers who were to achieve far greater prominence. The key to the success of the bookwomen was their willingness to experiment\, the strength of their relationships\, and their comprehensive understanding of the book production process. By focusing on a selection of women working across all aspects of the book production process\, this book demonstrates that\, both individually and collectively\, women capitalised on their position as ‘other’ to the existing male institutions. \nThe event will be followed by drinks at Park House.

SUMMARY:The Rush of the Orinoco: The English Dream of El Dorado
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 26th October\, 4-5.30pm\, in-person (Miller G05\, Whiteknights Campus\, University of Reading) and online (please register below for zoom link) \nReading Latin American and Caribbean network (R-LAC) and the Department of Languages and Cultures Research seminar series are pleased to invite you to a seminar with Dr Tomás Straka\, Director of the Research Institute of History\, Universidad Católica Andrés Bello\, Caracas. Venezuela. \nThe current trial in The Hague about Venezuela’s claim of the Essequibo is another inheritance that remains from the old times of the British Empire throughout the world. Whilst Venezuela and Guyana await the verdict of the International Court\, many people have started to think about the historical roots of the problem. A long history of all the imperialisms in the Caribbean – Spanish\, Dutch\, English and American – and slavery is in the background of the Venezuela-Guyana dispute\, as well as the Cold War and the oil economy during the last decades. This talk focuses on the intellectual aspect of this process. \nAlongside the British penetration in the Orinoco area (Orinoquia in Spanish)\, among the British developed a real fascination about this area as a realm of two types of utopias: the endless wealth of El Dorado\, and the place where Noble Savages live without troubles. From the adventures of Walter Raleigh to the fantastic novel of Arthur Conan Doyle\, the British Orinoquia literature was an inspiration to traders\, explorers\, filibusters\, slavers\, and poets. Not for nothing the most world-famous novel of the Orinoco is a classic of the English literature: Robinson Crusoe. \nTo register for zoom link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-rush-of-the-orinoco-the-english-dream-of-el-dorado-tickets-443273913207

SUMMARY:Performing the Digital Humanities in contemporary academia
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I interrogate the position of Digital Humanities in the contemporary university\, particularly (but not exclusively) in British academia. I open up the question of what the role of Digital Humanities might be in this conjuncture\, which sees the arts and humanities often marginalised by academia. At the same time\, though\, the contemporary world presents a number of wider social\, political and technological challenges that the arts and humanities may be well equipped to address. I draw on my recent work on the importance of feminist theories of performativity (particularly Karen Barad’s and Judith Butler’s) to unpack the functioning of Artificial Intelligence\, Machine Learning and data-driven methods and policies\, as well as the injustices and inequalities they generate. I invite the Digital Humanities to enter in a critical dialogue with contemporary technology by taking into account at least two aspects. Firstly\, technology has always been central to the constitution of what we call “the human”. Secondly\, Digital Humanities can itself be a generator of social and political inequalities or\, conversely\, an important tool for redressing such inequalities. I conclude by considering the role of feminist performativity in rethinking what it means to perform Digital Humanities responsibly today. \nFederica Frabetti is Principal Lecturer in Digital Media at the University of Roehampton. She has a diverse professional and academic background in the humanities and ICT and has worked for a decade as a software engineer in telecommunications companies. She is the author of Software Theory (2015). She is also an editor and translator of The Judith Halberstam Reader (Italian). In 2011 she edited the special issue of the academic journal Culture Machine\, “The Digital Humanities Beyond Computing” 12. \n14.50 Break \n15.00 Roundtable: \nDr Eugene McSorley (Associate Professor of Experimental Psychology\nHead of the Active Vision Lab  |  Director of the Behavioural and Experimental Social Sciences Lab) \nDr Dominic Lees (Associate Professor of Filmmaking\, AI research group)  \nDr Mara Oliva (Associate Professor in US History\, DH Champion\, Digital Humanities Quarterly Editor) \n15.30 Q&A \n15.55 What’s next (DH CoP and Hub – future events) & close \nTo book your place (online or in person) please contact the Hub’s DH Champion\, Dr Mara Oliva – m.oliva@reading.ac.uk

SUMMARY:‘Gender and the Archaeology of Medieval Nunneries’
DESCRIPTION:Close to 30 years ago Prof Roberta Gilchrist published ‘Gender and Material Culture: The Archaeology of Religious Women’. This influential book has been a cornerstone of gender and medieval archaeological research and studies of women religious more broadly. Its continued impact is evident in the recent book by Dr Tracy Collins\, ‘Female Monasticism in Medieval Ireland: An Archaeology’\, which is the first gender archaeology of medieval nunneries in Ireland. In this virtual event\, we bring together these two scholars to speak to the context in which their books were created –both times of renewed feminist activism. \nThis talk is the first in a new series of virtual events by the Society for Medieval Archaeology. \nRegister your place for free here.
