And so it went. It almost went to Paris, but that was the necessary detour on the way to one of the top ten unsung places of the world: Utrecht, the downriver town. In 1579, Utrecht gave its name to a treaty that is still seen by many as the beginning of the Dutch Republic. This summer, 438 years later, the ACLA opening reception is hosted in the hall where the treaty of Utrecht was signed. As a university, Utrecht has educated and hosted a colorful list of scholars ranging from René Descartes, James Boswell, and Frans de Waal to Rosi Braidotti, Ann Rigney, and Mieke Bal. The fact that these scholars relate to—and, as for the last three, have helped to ground and develop—Comparative Literature as an interdisciplinary field, only reinforces Utrecht University as the first overseas location of the ACLA. A rich and exciting program will await you here. We are honored to present our keynotes Trinh Minh-ha, Rey Chow, and Mieke Bal, as well as the special panels including Samuel Weber, Vicki Kirby, Jacques Lezra, Achille Mbembe, Ato Quayson, and Sarah Nuttall. But perhaps most of all, we are honored to host all of you, who have chosen to attend the 2017 ACLA conference in such great numbers. We hope you will enjoy the town, and the events to be enjoyed during the conference in and outside Utrecht, on a bike or on foot. Do not forget to take a look at the international programs we offer here in the fields of Comparative Literature, as well as the disciplines of Dutch, English, Italian, German, Spanish, and French literary studies, Film and Media studies, the Gender Studies programs, and Intercultural Communication. Our Institute for Cultural Inquiry (ICON), the research focus area Culture, Citizenship, and Human Rights (CCHR), the Postcolonial Initiative, the Terra Critica Network, and the Transcultural Memory Network form the groundwork of our research here. Feel free to enquire and discover more during your stay. What started as a playful proposal in 2010 evolved into real, arduous and inspired work from 2015 onward by an all-women scientific committee. This committee united our Faculty of the Humanities with its sister faculties at Leiden, Amsterdam, and Nijmegen, and consists of: Inge Mathijssen, Ann Rigney, Rosemarie Buikema, Susanne Knittel, Kathrin Thiele, Iris van der Tuin, Anna Poletti, Ingrid Hoofd, Rianne Giethoorn, Yra van Dijk, Esther Peeren, Liedeke Plate, Kiki Drost, and Ingibjörg Rúnarsdóttir. Still, however much we worked, this conference would never have been possible without the help of our support staff. We wish to thank Rob Grift, Wieke Eefting, Marianne Speckmann, Laura Veenendaal, Annelies van der Lagemaat-Nap, Tanja Schols, Emma de Vries, and Paul van der Lugt. Our dean Keimpe Algra, our vice-dean Ted Sanders, the directors of the research institute Frank Kessler and Frans Ruiter as well the Head of the Department of Languages, Literature, and Communication Els Stronks have given their full support to this conference. 4 ACLA 2017 Utrecht University For their generous financial contributions, we would also like to thank: the Department of Languages, Literature and Communication, the Utrecht University focus area Culture, Citizenship and Human Rights, the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Netherlands Research School for Literary Studies (OSL), the Netherlands Institute for Cultural Analysis (NICA), the Netherlands Research School for Gender Studies (NOG), the Postcolonial Studies Initiative (PCI), the Amsterdam School for Cultural Analysis (ASCA), the Amsterdam Center for Globalisation Studies (ACGS), and the City of Utrecht. A last special thanks is for our former dean Wiljan van den Akker who helped us lay the groundwork for this conference in 2012. Enjoy the conference and enjoy Utrecht! Kiene Brillenburg Wurth and Birgit Mara Kaiser Utrecht University ACLA 2017 5 WELCOME TO THE HEART OF THE NETHERLANDS At the moment I am writing this, the 4th Utrecht International Literature Festival is about to start. Starring the British novelist and translator, Tim Parks, as well as the Dutch star author, Herman Koch. Maybe you know him, since his most famous novel, The Dinner, has been translated into 31 languages. At the moment you are reading this, many Utrecht citizens, irrespective of their nationality (of which the city counts 170), are leaving their residence for their yearly summer holidays. Favourite foreign destinations are France, Germany, Spain. Stay-behinds appreciate the comparative quietness of summer. But tourists, students attending the Utrecht Summer School (with over 3,000 students Europe’s largest) and you as participants of the International Conference of the American Comparative Literature Association provide a welcome infusion of colour. So please, have a look beyond the programme you find in this book. Enjoy the city where Belle van Zuylen lived and worked in the 18th century. Where the Stijl movement flourished in the person of the distinguished architect and interior designer, Gerrit Rietveld. Where the artist, Dick Bruna, produced his series of children’s books starring Miffy and her friends. Translated into more than 50 languages and admired all over the world. In brief: feel welcome to the cosmopolitan heart of the Netherlands, a place that will not fail to rouse your inspiration. Jan van Zanen Mayor of Utrecht 6 ACLA 2017 Utrecht University GENERAL INFORMATION REGISTRATION Utrechts Centrum voor de Kunsten Address: Domplein 4 The registration desk is located at the Utrechts Centrum for the Kunsten (UCK) at the Dom square. You will find the UCK right next to the Tourist Information Centre. When you enter the building, please follow the signs to the ‘Torenzaal.’ This is where we will be ready to hand out your badge to you from Thursday 6 July 1:30pm onwards (check the conference schedule for our complete opening hours). CONFERENCE BADGE During the weekend, Utrecht University is open to ACLA participants and visitors only, not to students. Please wear your badges at all times, to ensure that security will recognize you and allow you to enter the conference buildings. CONFERENCE LOCATIONS Utrecht University is not located at a single campus area. Instead, its faculties and departments are housed in historical buildings across the city. Please make sure to check the location of a seminar or a plenary session on the map, as it may take some time to travel from one building to another. The number of the room always contains the floor number. So Drift 25 RM105 is located on the first floor, Drift 23 RM010 on the ground floor. Most plenary lectures and discussions take place in buildings that are not part of the university. These locations are included on the map, which is to be found in this program guide and on the acla.org website.

  • Laila Lalami: Narrating North African Migration to Europe
    Laila Lalami: Narrating North African Migration to Europe CHRISTIÁN H. RICCI UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, MERCED Introduction aila Lalami, author of three novels—Hope and Other Dangerous Pursuits L(2005), Secret Son (2009), and The Moor’s Account (2014)—and several short stories, has been considered the most important Moroccan author writ- ing in English; her work has been translated into more than eleven languages (Mehta 117). Compelled to write in a language that is not her mother tongue, Lalami’s narrations constitute a form of diasporic writing from within. She succeeds in defying not only the visual and cultural vilification of Muslims, but also the prevailing neo-orientalist concept of Muslim women’s writing as exclusively victim or escapee narratives. Up to now, the focus of most Mo- roccan migration stories “has been on male migrants as individuals, without reference to women, who nowadays constitute about 50% of international migration. This has led to the neglect of women in migration theories” (Ennaji and Sadiqui 8, 14). As the result of labor migration and family reunification (twenty percent of Moroccan citizens now live in Europe), combined with the geo- graphic proximity of Europe and North Africa, the notion of a national or “native” literature is slightly unstable with regard to Morocco. Its literary production is not limited by the borders of the nation-state, but spills over to the European continent, where the largest Moroccan-descent communities are in France (over a million), Spain (800,000), the Netherlands (370,000), and Belgium (200,000). Contemporary Moroccan literature does more than criticize and reb- el against the Makhzen, a term that originally refers to the storehouse where tribute and taxes to the sultan were stowed; through the centuries Makhzen has come to signify not just the power holders in Morocco, but how power has been exercised throughout society.

HISHAM MATAR / [email protected] Overview Whether seen as a chronicle of social life, a hothouse of ideas and philosophical contemplation, a space for literary invention and the articulation of the quiet as well as the loud moments of existence, the novel is, in its various shapes and forms, a modern phenomenon. Perhaps this is partly why for long time there persisted, both in the minds of some Western and Arabic readers, the notion that the genre is a European invention, and therefore, the Arabic novel in particular, an act of literary mimicry. This is not only erroneous, but it also misses what is actually fascinating about the story of the novel in Arabic. It is a story that tells of a deep engagement with a great literary tradition as well as a commitment to invention.

  • Toccata Classics TOCC0024 Notes
    P JULIUS RÖNTGEN, CHAMBER MUSIC, VOLUME ONE – WORKS FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO I by Malcolm MacDonald Considering his prominence in the development of Dutch concert music, and that he was considered by many of his most distinguished contemporaries to possess a compositional talent bordering on genius, the neglect that enveloped the huge output of Julius Röntgen for nearly seventy years after his death seems well-nigh inexplicable, or explicable only to the kind of aesthetic view that had heard of him as stylistically conservative, and equated conservatism as uninteresting and therefore not worth investigating. The recent revival of interest in his works has revealed a much more complex picture, which may be further filled in by the contents of the present CD. A distant relative of the physicist Conrad Röntgen,1 the discoverer of X-rays, Röntgen was born in 1855 into a highly musical family in Leipzig, a city with a musical tradition that stretched back to J. S. Bach himself in the first half of the eighteenth century, and that had been a byword for musical excellence and eminence, both in performance and training, since Mendelssohn’s directorship of the Gewandhaus Orchestra and the Leipzig Conservatoire in the 1830s and ’40s. Röntgen’s violinist father Engelbert, originally from Deventer in the Netherlands, was a member of the Gewandhaus Orchestra and its concert-master from 1873. Julius’ German mother was the pianist Pauline Klengel, sister of the composer Julius Klengel (father of the cellist-composer of the same name), who became his nephew’s principal tutor; the whole family belonged to the circle around the composer and conductor Heinrich von Herzogenberg and his wife Elisabet, whose twin passions were the revival of works by Bach and the music of their close friend Johannes Brahms.

  • Materia Y Forma De Los Dioses Mayas Del Período Clásico
    ARTÍCULOS Revista Española de Antropología Americana ISSN: 0556-6533 https://doi.org/10.5209/reaa.66526 Materia y forma de los dioses mayas del período Clásico Ana García Barrios1 Recibido: 5 de marzo 2019 / Aceptado: 7 de junio de 2019 Resumen. Los artistas mayas del período Clásico tuvieron un interés especial por mostrar determinadas marcas o iconos dentro de los cuerpos de los seres sagrados que poblaron su cosmovisión. Esos motivos integrados en la imagen de ciertos dioses, tema principal de este trabajo, fueron utilizados para mos- trar al observador algunas de sus cualidades, principalmente la materia y sus componentes. El corpus sobre el que se trabaja aquí son determinadas vasijas del período Clásico (250-900 d.C.), con un doble enfoque disciplinario, la iconografía y la escritura, claves imprescindibles para comprender cómo se concibieron los dioses en la plástica maya antigua. Palabras clave: arte maya; periodo Clásico; dioses; marcas corporales; vasijas; iconografía; materia. [en] Matter and Form of the Mayan Gods of the Classic Period Abstract. Mayan artists of the Classic Period had a special interest in showing some marks or icons within the bodies of the sacred beings. Of great interest for this study, these motifs integrated in the image of some gods were used to show the observer some basic concepts around its nature and compo- sition. The approach used here starts from the iconography and writing of the Classic Period (250-900 AD), trying from this perspective to find the key elements that allow to understand how gods were conceived in the ancient Maya plastic. Keywords: Maya art; Classic Period; gods; corporal signals; vessels; iconography; matter.
