SUMMARY:(In-Person at Reid Hall) Entre Nous: Female Figures Transformed with Nina McLaughlin
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Drawing on the rhythms of epic poetry and alt rock\, of everyday speech and folk song\, of fireside whisperings and therapy sessions\, Nina MacLaughlin\, the acclaimed author of Hammer Head\, recovers what is lost when the stories of women are told and translated by men. She breathes new life into these fraught and well-loved myths. In voices both mythic and modern\, Wake\, Siren revisits Ovid’s Metamorphoses: accounts of love\, loss\, rape\, revenge\, and change. It lays bare the violence that undergirds and lurks in the heart of Ovid’s narratives\, stories that helped build and perpetuate the distorted portrayal of women across centuries of art and literature. \nThe Entre Nous series is co-organized by Columbia Global Centers | Paris\, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination\, and the American Library in Paris. \nAbout the speaker: \nNina MacLaughlin is the author of Wake\, Siren: Ovid Resung\, a re-telling of Ovid’s Metamorphoses told from the perspective of the female figures transformed\, as well as Summer Solstice: An Essay. Her first book was the acclaimed memoir Hammer Head: The Making of a Carpenter. Formerly an editor at the Boston Phoenix\, she worked for nine years as a carpenter\, and is now a books columnist for the Boston Globe.  \nImportant information: This event will take place in person at Reid Hall | Columbia Global Centers at 4 rue de Chevreuse. \nAccess to this event requires registration through Columbia Global Centers | Paris.

SUMMARY:Entre Nous: Enter Ghost with Isabella Hammad and Yasmine Seale
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]After years away from her family’s homeland\, and reeling from a disastrous love affair\, actress Sonia Nasir returns to Haifa to visit her older sister Haneen. While Haneen made a life here commuting to Tel Aviv to teach at the university\, Sonia remained in London to focus on her acting career and now dissolute marriage. On her return\, she finds her relationship to Palestine is fragile\, both bone-deep and new. \nWhen Sonia meets the charismatic and candid Mariam\, a local director\, she joins a production of Hamlet in the West Bank. Soon\, Sonia is rehearsing Gertrude’s lines in classical Arabic with a dedicated group of men who\, in spite of competing egos and priorities\, all want to bring Shakespeare to that side of the wall. As opening night draws closer and the warring intensifies\, it becomes clear just how many obstacles stand before the troupe. Amidst it all\, the life Sonia once knew starts to give way to the daunting\, exhilarating possibility of finding a new self in her ancestral home. \nTimely\, thoughtful\, and passionate\, Isabella Hammad’s highly anticipated second novel is an exquisite story of the connection to be found in family and shared resistance. \nAbout the speakers: \nIsabella Hammad is the author of The Parisian and her second novel\, Enter Ghost\, is forthcoming in 2023. She won a 2019 National Book Award “5 Under 35” and received the 2020 Sue Kaufman Prize from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. She has received fellowships from the Lannan Foundation\, MacDowell\, the Santa Maddalena Foundation\, and the Bellagio Rockefeller Foundation\, and has taught creative writing in the graduate programs at New York University and Brown University. \nYasmine Seale is a British-Syrian writer and translator. Her poetry\, essays\, visual art\, and translations from Arabic and French have appeared widely. She is the author\, with Robin Moger\, of Agitated Air: Poems after Ibn Arabi (Tenement Press\, 2022). Other work includes Aladdin: a New Translation (2018) and The Annotated Arabian Nights(2021)\, both out from W. W. Norton. She has received a PEN America Literary Grant and the Wasafiri New Writing Prize for Poetry. \nThe Entre Nous series is co-organized by Columbia Global Centers | Paris\, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination\, and the American Library in Paris. \nImportant information: This event will take place in person at Reid Hall | Columbia Global Centers at 4 rue de Chevreuse. \nAccess to this event requires registration through Columbia Global Centers | Paris.

SUMMARY:(ONLINE) Entre Nous: Ellington Plays Shakespeare with Robert G. O’Meally and Courtney Bryan
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Please note that this event will take place online due to planned metro disturbances. \nFor the Stratford\, Ontario Shakespeare Festival of 1957\, the American composers Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn created Such Sweet Thunder\, a jazz concert honoring Shakespeare. “Somehow I suspect that if Shakespeare were alive today\,” said Ellington\, “he might be a jazz fan himself. He’d appreciate the combination of team spirit and informality\, of academic knowledge and humor\, of all the elements that go into a great jazz performance.” \nThis talk will examine scores and recordings of Duke and Strays’ dark bluesy “harlemizations” of certain Shakespearean scenes and characters. Ellington had said that Lady Mac\, for example\, “had a little ragtime in her soul.” The talk will also feature contemporary video responses to these richly vibrant materials by the award-winning composer Courtney Bryan. \nThe Entre Nous series is co-organized by Columbia Global Centers | Paris\, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination\, and the American Library in Paris. \nAbout the speakers: \nRobert G. O’Meally is the Zora Neale Hurston Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University\, and the founder and director of Columbia’s Center for Jazz Studies. For his production of a Smithsonian record set called The Jazz Singers\, he was nominated for a Grammy Award. O’Meally has co-curated exhibitions for The Smithsonian Institution\, Jazz at Lincoln Center and The High Museum of Art (Atlanta). He has held Guggenheim and Cullman Fellowships\, and was a recent fellow at Columbia’s new Institute for Ideas and Imagination at the Global Center/Paris. \nCourtney Bryan is “a pianist and composer of panoramic interests” (New York Times). Bryan is currently the Albert and Linda Mintz Professor of Music at Newcomb College\, Tulane University. Bryan was the 2018 music recipient of the Herb Alpert Award in the Arts\, a 2019 Bard College Freehand Fellow\, and is currently a 2019-20 recipient of the Samuel Barber Rome Prize in Music Composition and a 2020 United States Artists Fellow. She has recently begun a new role as Creative Partner with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra (LPO). \nImportant information: This event will take place in person at Reid Hall | Columbia Global Centers at 4 rue de Chevreuse. \nAccess to this event requires registration through Columbia Global Centers | Paris.

SUMMARY:Entre Nous: Three Archives in Conversation with Lynnette Widder\, João Pina\, and Mila Turajlić
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Archives are imagined to be well-ordered places of safe-keeping; but most discoveries are made in unsuspected and unordered repositories of the past. Lynnette Widder\, João Pina\, and Mila Turajlić will talk about their experiences with archives as a catalyst for their work – archives neglected by history\, maintained by families\, sequestered in institutions\, left behind in unculled bequests. \nThe conversation is in celebration of Widder’s architecture book Year Zero to Economic Miracle: Hans Schwippert and Sep Ruf in Postwar West German Building Culture and Turajlić’s documentary film Ciné-guerrillas: The Scenes From the Labudović Reels\, and in anticipation of Pina’s forthcoming book on the discovery of family photographs of the Tarrafal concentration camp in Cape Verde. \nThe Entre Nous series is co-organized by Columbia Global Centers | Paris\, the Institute for Ideas and Imagination\, and the American Library in Paris. \nImportant information: This event will take place in person at Reid Hall | Columbia Global Centers at 4 rue de Chevreuse. \nAccess to this event requires registration through Columbia Global Centers | Paris.
