We remain very grateful to all our members who have continued to support the ACLA during the global pandemic. Your generosity has allowed us, in turn, to support our membership at a time that has underscored the precarity of our work as we see humanities department budgets slashed and faculty furloughed or dismissed. It is in challenging times like this that one might question: what is the role of a learned society? Over the past year, we’ve seen the debilitating effects of racism and xenophobia that have rocked the streets of Minneapolis, Atlanta, Chicago, and beyond. This is a time for advancing comparative and cross-cultural study, for scrutinizing systems of power, and for challenging one another to think critically about our own cultural contexts and works. In this sense it is essential for societies like ours to persist and provide a space for scholars of all professional levels to meet and engage with one another. Towards this end, we cut registration fees in half this year to allow wider participation. We are also proud to announce that we have offered an unprecedented number of registration waivers to contingent faculty and graduate students with over 160 scholars adding an important perspective that might, otherwise, may not have been heard. I extend a warm invitation to you all as we welcome two creative writers to our Opening Ceremony on Thursday, April 8th (6:00 - 8:00pm CDT) whose works explore borders, bodies, gender and translation: Natalie Diaz and Cristina Rivera Garza. We continue to offer popular pre-conference events that are of particular interest to graduate students and early career scholars: a workshop on “Publishing Your First or Second Book” organized by the ACLA Publishing Committee featuring senior press editors; a workshop on “Publishing Your First Article” sponsored by the ADPCL; a workshop interrogating “The (Comparative Literature) Dissertation in Theory and Practice” organized by the ACLA Graduate Student Committee; and finally a workshop organized by the National Endowment for the Humanities on “Writing Successful NEH Grants for Faculty and Independent Scholars”. These concurrent workshops will take place on Thursday, April 8th (4:00 - 5:45pm CDT). On Friday, April 9th (12:15 - 1:45pm CDT), we will hold a lunchtime plenary where ACLA President Emeritus Waïl S. Hassan will present on “Geopolitics of Comparison: World Literature avant la lettre”. In the afternoon, we’ve scheduled a “Virtual Roundtable on Ethics of Graduate Advising” organized by our Graduate Student representatives. A plenary planned for Friday, April 9th (6:00-7:30pm CDT) will attend to “The Poetics of Protest, from Africa to Minneapolis,” featuring a conversation between Calvin Warren and R. A. Judy. In place of a keynote this year, we have organized a keynote panel with scholars who have published their first book which we expect will stimulate lively discussion on the topic of “Comparative Studies and the Politics, Logics and the Rhetoric of The New Distribution” (Saturday, April 10th, 12:15 - 1:45pm CDT). I would also draw your 4 ACLA 2021 attention to the ACLA Vice Presidential Panel “Geopolitics of Comparison around the World” (organized by ACLA Vice President Shu-mei Shih and ACLA President Emeritus Waïl S. Hassan) that will meet on April 9th, April 10th, and April 11th from 8:30am - 10:15am CDT. Finally, I sincerely hope that many of you will join me as we acknowledge the accomplishments of this year’s ACLA prize winners during the Presidential Address & Awards Ceremony planned for Saturday, April 10th, 6:00 - 7:30pm CDT. Each year our conference is a joint effort from the ACLA Board, our prize committees, dedicated volunteers, and our staff. Special thanks are due to Nicoletta Pireddu for overseeing the review of thousands of submissions to the conference as Program Committee Chair and Dina Al-Kassim who began her tenure as our new Secretary- Treasurer just this past year. I would also like to acknowledge our Chief Administrative Officer, Monica Felix, as well as our latest addition to the team, Brigid Kennedy, whose efforts were essential to pivoting to our virtual platform this year and overseeing a variety of conference planning logistics. I also thank the academic presses who have adapted to our virtual environment to participate in our Book Exhibit. I look forward to the many fascinating panels scheduled for this year’s conference and will count the days until next year’s meeting when we will meet in person again. Sincerely, Sangeeta Ray ACLA President Professor of English and Comparative Literature University of Maryland ACLA 2021 5 ACLA BOARD MEMBERS ACLA OFFICERS Sangeeta Ray President University of Maryland Shu-mei Shih Vice-President University of California, Los Angeles Rei Terada Second Vice-President University of California, Irvine Dina Al-Kassim Secretary-Treasurer University of British Columbia Monica Felix Chief Administrative Officer ACLA ADVISORY BOARD Waïl S.

Email: [email protected] Course Description: This class will focus on British, South Asian, African, and Caribbean literature from the past 20 years. We will engage in these texts through a transnational feminist framework focused on the afterlives of slavery and colonialism in the 21st century and ongoing resistance to gender, racial, and class domination. We will attempt to describe the current state of global literatures written in English, asking some of the following questions: how do contemporary writers and theorists respond to late 20th century global frameworks like postcolonialism, subaltern studies, and the black Atlantic? How has advanced globalization impacted formerly colonized sites as well as literary production itself? What problems does the term “Global Anglophone” itself elucidate and conceal? Required Texts: Zadie Smith, NW; Mohsin Hamid, Exit West; Aravind Adiga, The White Tiger; Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Half of a Yellow Sun; Bernardine Evaristo, Girl, Woman, Other; M. NourbeSe Philip, Zong!; Dionne Brand, A Map to the Door of No Return; Marlon James, Black Leopard, Red Wolf Learning Outcomes: Students will learn to… ® Demonstrate advanced mastery of content within the field of contemporary Global Anglophone literary studies by answering comprehensive discussion questions about specific writers, genres, texts, and theories within this period in class discussions. ® Demonstrate refined skills in scholarly writing by completing an extended research-based project. ® Demonstrate a facility in relating the facts and ideas of the discipline of English studies to the field of Global Anglophone literature and theory within the context of Western intellectual history.

  • The Strangers
    Common world Lucy Hannah One of the many joys of reading is that of being transported to another world, far from our own. When, in 2011, the judges of the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize gathered in Sydney, many hours were spent deciding the overall winner, but a significant amount of time was also spent with the five regional judges swapping insights and shedding light on the contexts of work coming out of their respective regions – Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Canada and Europe, and the Pacific. The overall winner of the prize was a powerful novel set in post-civil war Sierra Leone, The Memory of Love, by Aminatta Forna. As an observer to this conversation, I was struck by how much I had missed in my own reading of the books, particularly those set in the Caribbean and the wider Pacific region. It also highlighted for me the impor- tance of access to the stories themselves, both locally and globally. Later, as a judge for the EBRD (European Bank for Reconstruction and Development) Literature Prize in 2018, I walked around London’s bookshops out of curi- osity to see how many of our shortlisted fictional works in translation to English were on offer in major bookstores – very few, and usually sitting on an out-of-the-way shelf, beyond the eyeline of shoppers. As readers, we are well aware that literature offers us a chance to remember that, as Jean Rhys observes in her Caribbean and European modernist classic, Wide Sargasso Sea, ‘there’s always the other side… always.’ Of course, there is also the problem of stories which get stuck in the margins, when they have the potential to alter how we see the world, in the spirit of what the Indian author, Kiran Desai, said of The Memory of 1 Love: ‘it delivers us to a common centre, no matter where we happen to have been born.’ For writers lucky enough to live in a place with a healthy publishing infrastructure, their imagined worlds have a chance to reach and engage readers far beyond their country’s borders.

  • The Inauthentic Portrayal of India in Aravind Adiga's the White Tiger
    THE INAUTHENTIC PORTRAYAL OF INDIA IN ARAVIND ADIGA’S THE WHITE TIGER DR. S. MURUGARAJAN Lt. S. NITHYA SGT, PUPS, Assistant Professor, Perumalkovil Pudur, Erode 638151 Karpagam Academy of Higher Education, (TN) INDIA Coimbatore. (TN) INDIA The White Tiger is the reflection of the mind of an Indian born outsider Aravind Adiga. It had won the Booker Prize for Literature in 2008 for its presentation of his ‘Real India’. But truly it is not. It is a cynical anthropology from an outsider. Adiga may be born in India but his novel exposes himself as an outsider. The Indian critics have commended him as an outsider because of his ideas and thoughts, which represented in his novel through the mouth of the protagonist Balram Halwai. Adiga’s The White Tiger is published in 2008 and the same year it had won the man of booker prize. That makes everyone to look at him. It is an attempt to reveal the inauthentic presentation of India by Aravind Adiga. INTRODUCTION The White Tiger is a debut novel, which describes India in a different point of view. Adiga gives a picture or tale of two India’s, the India of Darkness and Light, the India of Poverty. And this novel comes across an inauthentic portrait by real India, it is the comment given by the critics of India. Most of the foreign critics and others are praised Adiga for his presentation of India in a different angle. But the Indian Critics did not accept the views and presentation of such ideas. DR. S.

  • 2015 23Rd Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog
    2015 23rd Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog |Poets House|10 River Terrace|New York, NY 10282|poetshouse.org| 5 The 2015 Poets House Showcase is made possible through the generosity of the hundreds of publishers and authors who have graciously donated their works. We are deeply grateful to Deborah Saltonstall Pease (1943 – 2014) for her foundational support. Many thanks are also due to the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, the Leon Levy Foundation, and the many members of Poets House for their support of this project. 6 I believe that poetry is an action in which there enter as equal partners solitude and solidarity, emotion and action, the nearness to oneself, the nearness to mankind and to the secret manifestations of nature. – Pablo Neruda Towards the Splendid City Nobel Lecture, 1971 WELCOME to the 2015 Poets House Showcase! Each summer at Poets House, we celebrate all of the poetry published in the previous year in an all-inclusive exhibition and festival of readings from new work. In this year’s Showcase, we are very proud to present over 3,000 poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, artist’s books, and multimedia projects, which represent the work of over 700 publishers, from commercial publishers to micropresses, both domestic and foreign. For twenty-three years, the annual Showcase has provided foundational support for our 60,000-volume library by helping us keep our collection current and relevant. With each Showcase, Poets House—one of the most extensive poetry collections in the nation—continues to build this comprehensive poetry record of our time.

    THE CENTER FOR MIDDLE EASTERN STUDIES, NEWS HARVARD UNIVERSITY SPRING 2015 1 LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR A message from William Granara 2 SHIFTING TOWARDS THE ARABIAN PENINSULA Announcing a new lecture series 3 NEWS AND NOTES Updates from faculty, students and visiting researchers 12 EVENT HIGHLIGHTS Spring lectures, workshops, and conferences LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR SPRING 2015 HIGHLIGHTS I’M HAPPY TO REPORT THAT WE ARE DRAWING TO THE CLOSE OF AN ACADEMIC YEAR FULL OF ACTIVITY. CMES was honored to host a considerable number of outstanding lectures this year by eminent scholars from throughout the U.S. as well as from the Middle East and Europe. I mention only a few highlights below. Our new Middle Eastern Literatures initiative was advanced by several events: campus visits by Arab novelists Mai Nakib (Kuwait), Ahmed Khaled Towfik (Egypt), and Ali Bader (Iraq); academic lectures by a range of literary scholars including Hannan Hever (Yale) on Zionist literature and Sheida Dayani (NYU) on contemporary Persian theater; and a highly successful seminar on intersections between Arabic and Turkish literatures held at Bilgi University in Istanbul, which included our own Professor Cemal Kafadar, several of our graduate students, and myself. In early April, CMES along with two Harvard Iranian student groups hosted the first Harvard Iranian Gala, which featured a lecture by Professor Abbas Milani of Stanford University and was attended by over one hundred guests from the broader Boston Iranian community. Also in April, CMES co-sponsored an international multilingual conference on The Thousand and One Nights with INALCO, Paris. Our new Arabian Peninsula Studies Lecture Series was inaugurated with a lecture by Professor David Commins of Dickinson College, and we are happy to report that this series will continue in both the fall and spring semesters of next year thanks to the generous support of CMES alumni.

  • Sao Saimong Manghai. the Pddaeng Chronicle and the Jengtung State
    BOOK REVIEWS 307 war and now themselves lie years in the past, it seems justfied to do more than askas the authors do in a mere footnote~to what extent the ethnographic data presented here still coincide with actual reality. Indeed, there is a real fear that all of the information contained in this book might have passed into the realm of otherwise unretrievable his­ torical documents, documents of a culture which today finds itself basically altered， or perhaps even substantially destroyed. Rudiger Schumacher Institut fiir Vergleichende Musikwissenschaft Freie Universitat Berlin Sao Saimong Manghai. The Pddaeng Chronicle and the Jengtung State Chronicle Translated.
