Many thanks to Michael Shapiro, Philip Verre, hope this newsletter both brings and all the High staff for partnering with us in what promises back memories and informs you to serve as a key plank in our effort to expand opportuni- of our recent efforts to keep the ties for our graduate students in the years to come. We had a thrilling study-trip to Greece last January with the kind program academically healthy and participation of Elizabeth McGowan; coming up we will be indeed second to none. To our substantial community of alumni heading to Paris, Rome, and Naples. An ambitious trajectory we must add the astonishingly rich constellation of art histori- to be sure, and in Rome and Naples in particular we will be ans, conservators, and professionals in related fields that, for a exploring 16th- and 17th-century art—and perhaps some brief period, a summer, or on a permanent basis, make William- sense of Rome from a 19th-century point of view, if I am al- stown and its vicinity their home. The atmosphere we cultivate is lowed to have my way. -

Is it not in your eyes as it were nothing? But take heart now... Haggai 2.3-4. The return of the Russian Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) to Russia in 1990 after almost seventy years’ exile was undoubtedly one of the most significant events in Church history, comparable to the return of the Jews to Jerusalem after the seventy-year exile in Babylon. And yet this momentous step was taken almost casually, without sufficient forethought or a clearly defined strategy. Hence difficult problems arose, problems that had their roots deep in ROCOR’s past history. -
Really, Socialism?!
These contemporary reflections on the trajectory of post-war painting are complemented by a series of screenings and performances. Jen Liu’s video The Red Detachment will examine forms of bodily discipline by tracing the connections between the meat industry and the seminal Maoist ballet of the same name. Anna Rubin will present a rough cut of footage recording her relationship with a Leipzig teenager for whom cosplay serves as a means of reflecting on German history. In the closing event, Arseny Zhilyaev and Chang Yuchen will conclude with performative lectures on art institutions under socialism, respectively, experimental museology and technical life-drawing. Really, Socialism?! intends to spotlight the diversity of official artistic practices in state socialism: not just Soviet Socialist Realism, but also its Maoist apostate Revolutionary Romanticism and the abstract modernism that flourished in former Yugoslavia, among others. Programs include an online reading group on socialist science fiction in collaboration with the New Centre for Research and Practice, focusing on an optimism about technology that seems almost alien today. This exhibition will be complemented by the launch of an online archive that translates, collates and introduces seminal tracts on socialist aesthetics.

Synodal Gathering of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece at the Port Authority of Piræus
The Orthodox Informer “For it is a commandment of the Lord not to be si- lent at a time when the Faith is in jeopardy. Speak, Scrip- ture says, and hold not thy peace.... For this reason, I, the wretched one, fearing the Tribunal, also speak.” (St. Theodore the Studite, Patrologia Græca, Vol. XCIX, col. 1321) Sunday of Orthodoxy February 16/March 1, 2015 A Synodal Gathering of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece at the Port Authority of Piræus Keynote Presentation Ecumenism in the Homestretch and the Orthodox Witness of a Contemporary Saint and Confessor † Bishop Klemes of Gardikion Secretary of the Holy Synod Your Beatitude; Most Reverend and Right Reverend holy Brethren; Venerable Fathers and Mothers; Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ: I The Genesis and Development of Ecumenism t the behest of the Holy Synod, and invoking your prayers, atten- Ation, and patience, with God’s help I will expound, at this great Synodal Gathering and on the radiant day of the Triumph of Orthodoxy over heresies, on a matter of grave importance. You are familiar with the endeavor, about a century ago, to create a “League of Churches,” modelled on the “League of Nations,” an inter- Christian confederation between different confessions, notwithstanding 1 their doctrinal differences, for the purpose of coöperating in common service and with the ultimate goal of their union. Such was the genesis of ecumenism. That vision was Protestant, but, as we know, the Church of Con- stantinople took the unprecedented step of proposing, in its “Patriar- chal Declaration of 1920,” the establishment of a “League of Church- es” for the benefit, supposedly, of the “whole body of the Church,”1 that is, of the Orthodox and the heterodox. -

The End of the Cold War: Moscow
The End of the Cold War: Moscow President Reagan and Nancy Reagan receiving an official greeting from Mikhail Gorbachev and Raisa Gorbachev in St. George's Hall at the Grand Kremlin Palace in Moscow. 5/29/88. From the Archives brings primary source documents and exploration into the classroom. These educational resources, carefully curated by our Education team, are meant to enhance historical discussions around relevant topics of today in history, civics, geography, and economics. Overview: Most summits have a specific goal in mind, whether it is a peace treaty, arms negotiation, or trade. Many summits have alternate goals as well. These meetings are often used as an opportunity to get a feel for the other side and their points of view. Other times it is to make a statement to that nation, your own nation, or the world. Sometimes it is about making connections beyond the political ones. The Moscow Summit was very much a Summit of alternate goals rather than substantive ones. President Reagan was determined to make a personal connection with everyday Russians. He wanted to help them understand the people of the United States and for him to better understand the hearts and minds of the Soviet people. Suggested Classroom Activities: Consider having students look at the following documents and analyze what ‘message’ President Reagan was trying to convey. Also, have students hypothesize about which audience the message was directed towards. A student handout follows this page and can help students organize their thoughts when reading and discussing the documents. Notes on Items: Primary Source A: This document is the first part of President Reagan’s Briefing Book and contains the letter from General Colin Powell regarding the sensitivity of the document as well as the cover page and the proposed schedule. -

On the Current State of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad1
On the Current State of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad1 Bishop Photii of Triaditza Selections from answers by Bishop Photii to questions posed to him by the faithful during his pastoral visits to the parishes of the True Orthodox Church of Bulgaria Introductory Remarks While not everyone (viz., those who have remained in the RO- COR after its union with Moscow) may agree with the attached es- say from the counsels of Bishop Photii, it is a balanced and fair ar- ticle that deserves careful attention. In our Sister Churches, Bishop Photii, who is one Archbishop Chrysostomos’ closest friends, is held in high esteem for his insights and for his humility. He is an extraordinarily gifted scholar (a former assistant professor at the University of Sofia) and a wonderfully sensitive and skilled pas- 1 Selections from Bishop Photii’s talks with congregations in Plovdiv, Pazardzhik, and Blagoevgrad, which took place on November 16 and November 27, 2006. His Eminence, Bishop Photii, First Hierarch of the Old Calen- dar Orthodox Church of Bulgaria, was ordained to the Priesthood by Metropolitan Cyprian of Oropos and Phyle and consecrated to the Episcopacy by Metropolitan Cyprian and his Bishops. He is a former Lecturer (a European designation equivalent to the rank of Assistant Professor in the U.S.) at the University of Sofia, where he studied Classics and Theology and later taught the former subject. He speaks, in addition to his native Bulgarian, Greek, Russian, and French. He also reads English and Latin fluently. He was formed spiritually by the late Bulgarian theologian and academic, Archi- mandrite Dr. -

Evolution, Impacts, and Promise of U.S.-Russian Techno-Diplomacy Glenn E. Schweitzer ver the past seventy-five years, Russian and U.S. academies of sciences and Orelated organizations have learned a wide range of lessons through cooperation involving tens of thousands of scientists, engineers, and health professionals. When supported by the two governments, science engagement can provide many opportunities for advancing global science while helping guide future diplomacy in positive directions. One very important lesson from past experience is quite simple. Despite recurring blockages in U.S.-Russian collaboration, dedicated and enterprising scientists have become adept at finding innovative, unorthodox ways to advance programs that can benefit science and society alike.1 Although the U.S. and Russian science academies have the deepest history of carrying out bilateral cooperative programs, they have been but a small, although highly influential, component of overall collaboration involving U.S. and Russian specialists in many disciplines. As examples of other approaches, in the 1960s the Soviet government invited thousands of Americans to participate in a series of Glenn E.
