Harrison (Departments of French and Italian and Comparative Literature). This event uses the first English-language translation focused on the later works of Joyce Mansour as as a point for departure to discuss poetry and translation amongst scholars-translators yasser elhariry, C. Francis Fisher, Piotr Florczyk, Catherine Theis, and Teresa Villa-Ignacio.\u00a0 Their collective works span translation in French, Arabic, Polish, and Italian. The round table will be moderated by Olivia C. Harrison and followed by a Q&amp;A with the audience. Later that day\u00a0C. Francis Fisher will present her translation of Mansour\u2019s poetry, and read from the collection. The reading will be followed by a discussion with Molly Bendall and yasser elhariry, and by a Q&amp;A with the audience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n            \n                      <\/div>\n        <\/li>\n\n              <li>\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"accordion-trigger \" id=\"heading-1-2-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-controls=\"section-1-2-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-disabled=\"false\">\n                          <span class=\"item-title\">Conflicts: The Poetics and Politics of Palestine-Israel with Liron Mor<\/span>\n            \n                      <\/button>\n\n          <div id=\"section-1-2-DzYn6kw_l8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"heading-1-2-DzYn6kw_l8\" class=\"accordion-panel\">\n\n                            \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3341 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/ef8efac219fd75e661caf790fc3c263a76c832a3-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/ef8efac219fd75e661caf790fc3c263a76c832a3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/ef8efac219fd75e661caf790fc3c263a76c832a3-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/ef8efac219fd75e661caf790fc3c263a76c832a3-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/ef8efac219fd75e661caf790fc3c263a76c832a3.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Monday, September 16, 2024<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Sponsors: Comparative Literature (COLT), Department of Middle East Studies (MDES), Levan Institute for the Humanities<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"2\">Description: This talk begins with a deceptively simple question: <b>what is conflict?<\/b> Arguing that literature is not separate from but rather integral to conflict and violence, Liron Mor diagnoses the various conflictual mechanisms that not only reflect but also produce ideologies, identities and modes of oppression in Palestine-Israel, as well as forms of resisting them. <b>Liron Mor <\/b>is an Associate Professor of Comparative Literature and the Director of Critical Theory at the University of California, Irvine.

The most important written source of the era, an obscure heresiography called the Refutatio omnium haeresium, confirms this impression. It is well known that the anonymous author (formerly \u2018Hippolytus\u2019) invented connections between Greek philosophers and various heterodox Christian groups. He aimed to prove that these dissenting groups, most of them migrants, were more devoted to philosophical teachers than to Christ. While this list of \u2018heretics\u2019 is an obvious construction intended to separate, approaching the list as a network overcomes this separation and shed light on local interconnectedness beyond constructed reality. This talk has three aims. First, it tests this hypothesis by surveying evidence suggesting everyday encounters between heterodox Christian teachers. Second, it aims to map so far hidden connections among mainly migrant groups. Finally, it explores how network theory can help overcome the omnipresent but problematic orthodoxy-heresy dichotomy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n            \n                      <\/div>\n        <\/li>\n\n              <li>\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"accordion-trigger \" id=\"heading-1-6-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-controls=\"section-1-6-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-disabled=\"false\">\n                          <span class=\"item-title\">Rethinking Intelligence: AI in Research &#038; Teaching<\/span>\n            \n                      <\/button>\n\n          <div id=\"section-1-6-DzYn6kw_l8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"heading-1-6-DzYn6kw_l8\" class=\"accordion-panel\">\n\n                            \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3345 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/6cb8dbfaa2a69a28e6e99cff8b2fc2999b3416d3-300x217.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/6cb8dbfaa2a69a28e6e99cff8b2fc2999b3416d3-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/6cb8dbfaa2a69a28e6e99cff8b2fc2999b3416d3.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Thursday, December 5, 2024<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sponsors: <\/span><\/span>Center for Artificial Intelligence in Society,\u00a0Department of Classics,\u00a0Levan Institute for the Humanities<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"2\">Description: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping the landscape of education and research, challenging long-held ideas about what it means to be human. This talk will begin by exploring the cognitive, cultural, and biological reasons humans are drawn to creating and interacting with artificial agents\u2014why we strive to replicate and enhance our own capabilities. Building on this, I will discuss how AI can be leveraged to enrich learning environments, opening new pathways to engage with complex ideas, foster critical thinking, and advance interdisciplinary approaches. I will then turn to a critical challenge: as AI becomes increasingly embedded in both research and education, it is not only transforming how we learn but also altering the very nature of the research that informs what we teach. I will invite the audience to reflect on the ethical implications of allowing artificial systems to reshape cognition and intelligence, and how this shift is redefining the fundamental study of human nature. <b>Jennifer Devereaux\u00a0<\/b>Harvard University, Lecturer, Department of\u00a0<b>Human Evolutionary Biology<\/b>, NEH postdoctoral fellow, and Visiting Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Classics. Dr. Devereaux\u00a0investigates the human needs met by AI and the historical ideas about human psychology and behavior that enable artificiality to play a significant role in our lives. She also integrates humanistic thought with advanced cognitive science, building upon her doctoral research to develop a philosophy of reading. Drawing on her background in Classics, she has developed a popular Human Evolutionary Biology course that explores friendship from neuroendocrinology to cultural evolution and human-AI companionship.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n            \n                      <\/div>\n        <\/li>\n\n              <li>\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"accordion-trigger \" id=\"heading-1-7-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-controls=\"section-1-7-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-disabled=\"false\">\n                          <span class=\"item-title\">Navigating AI in the Classroom Summit<\/span>\n            \n                      <\/button>\n\n          <div id=\"section-1-7-DzYn6kw_l8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"heading-1-7-DzYn6kw_l8\" class=\"accordion-panel\">\n\n                            \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3346 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/4c5d75312bb909e3afce0b8af0943ed36a2cc9de-300x171.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/4c5d75312bb909e3afce0b8af0943ed36a2cc9de-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/4c5d75312bb909e3afce0b8af0943ed36a2cc9de.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Friday, January 17, 2025<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Sponsors: Office of the Provost, Information Technology Services, Annenberg School of Journalism, Viterbi School of Engineering &amp; School of Advanced Computing, Center for Generative AI &amp; Society, Dornsife College of Letters, Arts &amp; Sciences, USC Marshall\u2019s Neely Center for Ethical Leadership and Decision Making, The Graduate School, The Dornsife Writing Program, Viterbi Engineering in Society Program, Levan Institute for the Humanities, AI for Media &amp; Storytelling (AIMS)<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Description: This is a one-day event that will bring together faculty and staff from across the university to brainstorm, understand, and problem solve our concerns, questions, and excitements regarding generative AI in the classroom.

five-year anniversary of Covid\u2019s onset, please join us for an intimate reading and discussion on empathy and social distance &#8212; the ways we&#8217;ve navigated being vulnerable bodies in shared spaces in the pandemic\u2019s wake. Drawing from his essay, &#8220;Lloyd&#8217;s Mattress,&#8221; author Scott Korb will reflect on how \u201csocial distancing\u201d has amplified our collective shame and disgust, and become a wedge against empathy (towards ourselves and each other). Scott Korb will be joined by Taly Matejka and Rowan Bayne, of USC\u2019s Writing Program, to position writing as a means of grappling with the social and political transformations of the last five years. This event is part of <i>Writing Lives<\/i>, an annual speaker series from The USC Writing Program that convenes public intellectuals working at the intersections of scholarship and the personal essay. Scott Korb is the director of the MFA in Writing at Pacific University, in Oregon.

On the one hand, while the Special Period witnessed what literary scholar Esther Whitfield has described as the new \u201cBoom\u201d of Cuban literature (especially the novel), there has been a discernible shift away from prose fiction (and the book form) and toward other counter-expressive forms such visual and audiovisual art, performance, and digital media. On the other hand, the rules of what counts as literature and \u201cart\u201d in Cuba have tightened under new laws. Moreover, in the last three years, the island has experienced mass migration of Cuban citizens\u2014nearing 500,000, a number that exceeds the Mariel exodus of 1980. If Cuba\u2019s social history is a strong indicator of its aesthetic currents, such a significant demographic shift will radically reshape the ecology of Cuban literary and artistic production. This two-day interdisciplinary symposium invites scholars in Cuban Studies to discuss and reflect on transformations and innovations in contemporary Cuban literature, culture, art, and media, from the period following the Cuban Revolution until the present. \u201cCuban Aesthetics in the After,\u201d gestures to <i>Cuba y el d\u00eda despu\u00e9s, <\/i>a field-defining anthology of essays edited by Cuban writer Iv\u00e1n de la Nuez, who calls on Gen X and millennial Cuban writers and intellectuals to reimagine Cuban society in aftermath of a revolution that failed to birth the future promised to them. \u201cCuban Aesthetics in the \u2018After\u2019\u201d is a provocation to think of the \u201cafter\u201d as an aesthetic articulated and shaped by Cuban literature, visual culture, performance, and media within and beyond the space-time of the Cuban Revolution.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n            \n                      <\/div>\n        <\/li>\n\n              <li>\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"accordion-trigger \" id=\"heading-1-12-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-controls=\"section-1-12-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-disabled=\"false\">\n                          <span class=\"item-title\">Russian Afterlives of the Early Modern<\/span>\n            \n                      <\/button>\n\n          <div id=\"section-1-12-DzYn6kw_l8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"heading-1-12-DzYn6kw_l8\" class=\"accordion-panel\">\n\n                            \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3350 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/f20dc6bec49efc44d3f04ac0846732b48ae02fa5-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/f20dc6bec49efc44d3f04ac0846732b48ae02fa5-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/f20dc6bec49efc44d3f04ac0846732b48ae02fa5-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/f20dc6bec49efc44d3f04ac0846732b48ae02fa5-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/f20dc6bec49efc44d3f04ac0846732b48ae02fa5.jpg 1159w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 232px) 100vw, 232px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Saturday, March 29, 2025<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sponsors: Department of Slavic Languages &amp;

In January 2020, New York-based interdisciplinary artist Eiko Otake traveled to Beijing to visit Wen Hui, a Chinese choreographer and filmmaker. Though born eight years apart, their lives were shaped by distinct histories: Eiko in postwar japan, Wen during the Cultural Revolution. Their month-long visit became a space for deep conversation, reflection, and artistic collaboration, eventually leading to the documentary <i>No Rule Is Our Rule <\/i>(2022). Marking another year of inspiring friendship and collaboration, Eiko and Wenhui come to USC to share their work. They invite the community to a full-day experimental workshop featuring a guided movement session (1:30-3:30 at SCA Gallery) and a screening of their collaborative documentary No Rule is Our Rule (4:00-6:00 at SCA 112). Together, they ask: What does it mean to forget, to remember, to mourn, or to pray? How do we move through violence and loss? What shifts when we become movers, dancers, witnesses of our own bodies? This immersive workshop day invites participants of all backgrounds to explore movement as a way of knowing \u2014a method for accessing human experience, processing emotion, and engaging with space, memory, and creativity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n            \n                      <\/div>\n        <\/li>\n\n              <li>\n          <button type=\"button\" class=\"accordion-trigger \" id=\"heading-1-16-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-controls=\"section-1-16-DzYn6kw_l8\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-disabled=\"false\">\n                          <span class=\"item-title\">Inside the Chemosphere: navigating toxicity in Dutch horticultural greenhouses with Rebeca Iba\u00f1ez Martin<\/span>\n            \n                      <\/button>\n\n          <div id=\"section-1-16-DzYn6kw_l8\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"heading-1-16-DzYn6kw_l8\" class=\"accordion-panel\">\n\n                            \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3354 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/9d904370e36f2196265de6a5f48f684907e414d9-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/9d904370e36f2196265de6a5f48f684907e414d9-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/9d904370e36f2196265de6a5f48f684907e414d9-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/9d904370e36f2196265de6a5f48f684907e414d9-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/levan-institute\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/104\/2025\/05\/9d904370e36f2196265de6a5f48f684907e414d9.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\">Monday, April 21, 2025<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sponsors: Anthropology, Levan Institute for the Humanities<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"2\">Description: The horticultural greenhouse is a built infrastructure that reproduces a climate-controlled environment for plant growth. Beyond their political role -they are spaces of &#8216;hope&#8217;, as they allow crops to be grown in otherwise hostile environments &#8211; greenhouses not only model different ways of growing food, but also different approaches to working with plants. In this paper I present a small ethnographic investigation in which I elaborate how greenhouse cultivation give rise to emergent toxic relationships between humans and plants.
