SUMMARY:Decolonising Bereavement Studies: Diversity and Social Justice in the Aftermath of Death
DESCRIPTION:Jane Ribbens McCarthy (The Open University) \nHuman Geography Research Cluster Seminar Series 2021/22 \nDeath\, dying and disposal are well-established topics of study\, both academically in the humanities\, arts\, and social sciences and from medical perspectives\, including the practice of palliative care. Bereavement studies\, however\, occupies a much more ambiguous space as a site for multi-disciplinary academic work\, being very heavily dominated by individualised and medicalised perspectives\, particularly psychiatry and psychology\, and connected to ‘communities of practice’ in bereavement services. Such approaches are underpinned by the humanitarian desire to assist and support people experiencing something termed ‘grief’. \nRecent work on family deaths in Senegal\, however\, has shown the limitations of such terms as ‘bereavement’ and ‘grief’\, rooted in Anglophone linguistic contexts\, and has challenged dominant assumptions in ‘bereavement studies’. At the same time\, following on from the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement\, work to address issues of decolonisation within the academy has gained new momentum. \nThis presentation begins to bring these ‘decolonising’ endeavours\, and ‘bereavement studies’ into dialogue\, seeking to open up conversations in a field that is currently very heavily dominated by particular perspectives that developed in affluent Minority worlds at a particular point in historical time. Such conversations demand new concepts\, raise many new questions framed within different paradigms\, and create opportunities for addressing issues of diversity and social justice in the aftermath of death\, with the potential for further insights for climate justice for the benefit of all. \nFor further information\, contact Ruth Evans (details below)

SUMMARY:Visualising the Database: Early Modern Women’s Complaint Poetry Index
DESCRIPTION:The Centre for Book Cultures and Publishing (CBCP) is pleased to host this talk by Michelle O’Callaghan and Jake Arthur introducing the new online database of Early Modern Women’s Complaint Poetry \nThis online event is free and open to all. Please register your interest to receive the Zoom link here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/181636629047 \nMichelle O’Callaghan is Professor of Early Modern Literature at the University of Reading. Her most recent book Crafting Poetry Anthologies in Renaissance England: Early Modern Cultures of Recreation (Cambridge\, 2020) builds on her digital edition\, Verse Miscellanies Online\, co-edited with Alice Eardley\, and is a study of the craft of making printed poetry anthologies published in the second half of the sixteenth century in England\, showing how these anthologies helped to shape recreational cultures within the nation’s households\, drawing men and women together from across the social classes. \nJake Arthur is a DPhil candidate and Clarendon Scholar at Oxford University. His thesis examines early modern women’s work in translation and paraphrase and seeks to reclaim the expressive and intellectual possibilities of ‘derivative’ works. The preliminary title of the thesis is ‘“The stuffe not ours”: the work of derivation in women’s writing\, 1560–c.1664’. In collaboration with Sarah C. E. Ross\, he is co-editor of the poetry section of the forthcoming Palgrave Encyclopaedia of Early Modern Women’s Writing. With Rosalind Smith\, he has co-authored a chapter in Early Modern Women and Complaint: Gender\, Form and Politics (2020) which considers the implications of digital resources for the traditional first-line index in relation to early modern women’s complaint poetry. He works as a researcher on the ARC funded project Marginalia and the Early Modern Woman Writer\, and on the ARC and Marsden funded project\, Woe is She: Early Modern Women and the Poetry of Complaint.
