SUMMARY:Intimacy\, Testimony\, Protest: Armenian Lullaby as a Genre of History
DESCRIPTION:A lecture by Dr. Melissa Bilal\nMellon Post Doctoral Fellow\nColumbia University\nEvent Flyer \nThe history accumulated on the Armenian lullaby represents a resource for remembrance\, story telling\, and the transmission of a sense of loss.  Melissa Bilal’s presentation critically analyzes the historical formation of the genre of lullaby in Armenian ethnographic and revolutionary literature and contextualizes it within turn-of-the-twentieth-century gendered politics of land and modernity.  Tracing specific examples of songs in printed archival material\, sound recordings\, and interviews\, Bilal points to the continuities and ruptures in the transmission of this repertory within the present day Armenian community of Istanbul.  She argues that the Armenian lullaby today takes its political capacity from conveying the affective knowledge to survive the epistemology of denial. \nCo-sponsored by the UCLA Gustave von Grunebaum Center for Near East Studies

SUMMARY:All The Light There Was – A Novel About Armenians in Nazi-Occupied Paris
DESCRIPTION:A lecture by Nancy Kricorian\nAcclaimed Novelist\nFebruary 25\, 2015 \nEvent Flyer \nWhile doing research on the uses of political violence by “non-state actors” for her second novel Dreams of Bread and Fire\, Nancy Kricorian came across a 1984 French documentary entitled “Terrorists in Retirement” (original title “Des terroristes à la retraite“).  It told the story of a French Communist Resistance network made up of immigrant workers.  The network’s leader was an Armenian poet named Missak Manouchian.  In late 1943\, the Germans arrested Manouchian and 22 members of his group\, which was comprised of Eastern European Jews\, Armenians\, and Italian and Spanish refugees.  Kricorian began to imagine what it would have been like for Armenian Genocide survivors\, such as Manouchian\, to live out the war years in Paris.  This question became the basis for her third novel\, All the Light There Was\, which tells the story of Maral Pegorian\, a young Armenian girl who is the narrator and protagonist of the book. \nCo-sponsored by the UCLA Gustave von Grunebaum Center for Near Eastern Studies
