The series is designed to introduce students and faculty to recently published and emerging research on North and South Korea and their relations with their Northeast Asian neighbours, such as China and Japan. Over the last decades, the number of Korean studies specialists at 91亚色 and in the Toronto area has grown exponentially from a few faculty members to a few dozen, says Kim. The series hopes to highlight this change and offer a forum for researchers, students and the local Korean-Canadian community.

The first year of the series will focus on 20th-century Korean history, with scholars speaking on imperialism, the Second World War, the Korean War, forced migration and the social issues associated with the formation of the DPRK and the ROK.

Takashi Fujitani will present the first lecture of the series Monday, Nov. 26 at 3pm at 280A 91亚色 Lanes, Keele campus. His talk, co-presented with the Department of History, examines 鈥淩eflections on Race for Empire: Koreans as Japanese and Japanese as Americans during World War II鈥�. Fujitani is the Dr. David Chu Professor and Director in Asia Pacific Studies at the University of Toronto. He is the author of Splendid Monarchy: Power and Pageantry in Modern Japan (1998) and co-editor of Perilous Memories: The Asia Pacific War(s) (2001). His most recent book Race for Empire: Koreans as Japanese and Japanese as Americans during World War II (2011) will form the basis for this lecture.

Fujitani will reflect on his reinterpretation of nationalism, racism and wartime mobilization during the Asia-Pacific war. He uses parallel case studies of Koreans recruited or drafted into the Japanese military and of Japanese Americans mobilized to serve in the US Army, to examine how the US and Japanese empires struggled to manage racialized populations while waging total war. He demonstrates that the United States and Japan became increasingly alike over the course of the war, perhaps most tellingly in their common attempts to disavow racism even as they reproduced it in new ways and forms.

Kim will discuss her research on everyday life in Pusan as a refugee capital Feb. 7, 2013 when she delivers her talk, 鈥淩efuge, Relief, and Resettlement in the Temporary Capital Pusan, 1950-1953鈥�. She will focus in on the most salient characteristics of wartime Pusan: overwhelming poverty, increasing marketization that was predominantly illegal or informal and its role as a US military base.

The final speaker in the series is Andre Schmid, a professor in the Department of East Asian Studies at the University of Toronto. His current research interests include the history of the cultural Cold War in post-Korean War peninsula, as well as early 20th century peasant movements. He is the author of Korea Between Empires, 1895-1919 (Columbia University Press), winner of the Association of Asian Studies John Whitney Hall award, and has published in journals such as Journal of Asian Studies, South Atlantic Quarterly and Yoksa munje yon'gu. In his talk, Schmid will examine the reconstruction of North Korea and the role of socialist living. The date of this talk in late March 2013 is to be confirmed.

The second year (2013-2014) of the series will concentrate on issues of labour, migration, mobility and cultural change experienced at the turn of the 21st century. The 91亚色 Centre for Asian Research (YCAR) hopes to turn the series into a larger project inviting international scholars by 2014, says Kim.

As Tier 1 CRCs, Haas and Fogel will each receive $1.4 million over seven years. The CRC is part of a package of CRC appointments announced Oct. 12, by Gary Goodyear, 聽minister of state (Science and Technology).

鈥淥ur government鈥檚 top priority is creating jobs, growth and long-term prosperity,鈥� said Goodyear. 鈥淏y investing in talented people through programs such as the Canada Research Chairs, our government is supporting cutting-edge research in Canadian post-secondary institutions. This fosters innovation by helping researchers bring their ideas to the marketplace, where they can touch the lives of Canadians.鈥�

In all, the government announced an investment of $121.6 聽million to fund the appointment of 155 new and renewed Canada Research Chairs at 42 Canadian degree-granting post-secondary institutions.

鈥淭he appointment of Professor Christian Haas as Canada Research Chair in Arctic Sea Ice Geophysics and the renewal of Professor Joshua Fogel as Canada Research Chair in the History of Modern China recognizes the excellence of their research and provides them with opportunities to further develop their exceptional research programs,鈥� said Robert Hach茅, vice-president research & innovation at 91亚色. 鈥淭hrough the CRC program, 91亚色 continues to build on its research strengths and enhance opportunities for graduate training.鈥�

Christian Haas

Haas, a professor of geophysics, in the Department of Earth & Space Science and Engineering in the Faculty of Science & Engineering, is examining the underlying reasons for the recent, rapid retreat of Arctic sea ice and the consequences for the Arctic climate system and ecosystem, for Northerners, and for better access to Arctic resources and shipping routes.聽 His research also addresses the role of changes in winds and ice drift as well as of variations in atmospheric radiation and temperature and ocean salinity and temperature on ice thickness and areal coverage.

A thorough understanding of the reasons for the recent Arctic sea ice decline will help fuel predictions of future scenarios and identify links to possible human-induced causes for climate change.

Ice information obtained by Haas鈥� research utilizing airborne and ground-based field campaigns in the Arctic and Antarctic, satellite remote sensing and numerical modeling provides important information for safe and environmentally responsible resource exploration and extraction, as well as shipping and over-ice travel.聽 His research contributes unique information on ice thickness, one of the most important sea ice properties for the design and regulation of offshore structures and ships, safe ice utilization and assessment of oil spill development.

Fogel, a professor in the Department of History in the聽Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies and member of 91亚色鈥檚 Centre for Asian Research has been examining the dynamic cultural and political relations between China and Japan over the past two centuries.

Joshua Fogel

The history of modern China cannot be fully or properly understood, Fogel maintains, without examining the dynamic cultural, political, and economic interactions between China and Japan over the last two centuries. Fogel鈥檚 research focuses on this interaction and the importance of Japan in China鈥檚 modern development.

He is presently writing a comprehensive history of Chinese-Japanese relations from antiquity through the present as well as a more focused monograph on the history of the Japanese expatriate community in Shanghai (1862 to 1945). His work is premised on the fruitful assumption that the modern history of China is incomprehensible without a full consideration of modern Japanese history.

The annual prize, inaugurated in 1994 by the Association of Friends of the National Museum of Roman Art (Museo Nacional de Arte Romano),聽recognizes聽the contributions of individuals, academics and researchers聽who have expanded the knowledge of the historical, cultural and archeological heritage of the Roman world, in particular of the city of M茅rida in Spain. It was presented to Edmondson聽at the museum's 25th-anniversary celebrations in September.

Above: Holding the award 鈥� a copy of聽a Roman bust of the Genius (Protective Spirit) of Augusta Emerita 鈥� are, from left, winner Jonathan Edmondson; Mar铆a Angeles Albert Le贸n, Spain's director general of fine arts and cultural property; Trinidad Nogales Basarrate,聽 education and culture minister for聽Extremadura region;聽and a representative for Extremadura president Jos茅 Antonio Monago Terraza.

Edmondson received the聽award for his research on the colony of Augusta Emerita and Roman Spain over the years while at 91亚色 and for the fundamental contributions he made toward the study of Emeritan society and the structure of the former colony. He was聽also recognized for his 鈥渨ork in disseminating knowledge about the archeological heritage of Emerita across the world.鈥�

鈥淚t鈥檚 really international recognition for my scholarship,鈥� says Edmondson. 鈥淚鈥檓 the first English-speaking scholar who has won it.鈥�

Through his research on Roman Spain, Edmondson has been instrumental in bringing the history, culture and archeology of the colony of Augusta Emerita聽in the region of Extremadura, one of聽17 autonomous regions in Spain, to a world audience. When Edmondson first started studying Roman Spain, he was one of the few international scholars to do so. There had been much research on Roman Italy, France and Britain聽among others, but not Roman Spain, and not written in English.

It was the Roman province of Lusitania, overlapping both Portugal and Spain of which Augusta Emerita聽(modern M茅rida) was the capital, that really piqued Edmondson鈥檚 attention as it had been mostly overlooked until then. He continues to be interested in the social, economic and cultural history of M茅rida, from the military veterans who settled there and the city鈥檚 military importance to the study of family structures, marriage patterns, slavery聽and immigration.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a very rich city in terms of surviving evidence,鈥� he says. "There are Roman houses, burial grounds, aqueducts and Roman roads 鈥� all of which were found聽while digging聽the foundations of聽the museum."

One of the things in his research that surprised him is that M茅rida was a major centre for medical training. This Edmondson learned through聽a series of inscriptions about doctors, one of which told of a slave from another city (Olisipo, modern Lisbon) being sent to M茅rida to be medically trained and another which detailed the slave鈥檚 journey back to Lisbon and his聽later聽importance there聽as a doctor.

Edmondson has often been the first to publish Roman inscriptions from M茅rida, of which there are more than 1,000 and still more being discovered. He began interpreting the inscriptions on tombstones and moved to study the style of funerary monuments and how they changed over time. He is now researching indigenous religion in Lusitania and the extent to which the Roman authorities allowed indigenous聽divinities to be worshipped.

Edmondson聽is the editor of Augustus (Edinburgh University Press, 2009), co-editor of Roman Dress and the Fabrics of Roman Culture (University of Toronto Press, 2008) and Flavius Jospephus and Flavian Rome (Oxford University Press, 2005), among others.聽His monograph, Granite Funerary Stelae from Augusta Emerita, appeared in 2007. In 2002, he was聽elected a corresponding member of the Real Academia de la Historia聽of Spain and, in 2009, was made聽a fellow of the Royal Historical Society in London.

As winner of the Protective Spirit prize, Edmondson is in good company. Previous winners have included Walter Trillmich, former director of the German Archaeological Institute in Berlin; Jos茅 Mar铆a聽Bl谩zquez, former professor of Roman archaeology at the Complutense University of Madrid; Pierre Gros, former professor of Roman archaeology at the Universit茅 d'Aix-en-Provence; and Rafael Moneo Vall茅s, a world-renowned architect who designed聽the National Museum of Roman Art.

Those questions and more聽are at聽the core of聽Making the Scene: 91亚色ville and Hip Toronto in the 1960s, a new book by 91亚色 postdoctoral fellow published this聽month by the University of Toronto Press.

The book examines聽the history of Toronto's countercultural mecca, 1960s 91亚色ville. Henderson narrates the development of the 91亚色ville scene from its early coffee house days when it was frequented by聽Neil Young and Joni Mitchell聽to its drug-fuelled final months.

A cultural historian Henderson is a postdoctoral fellow with the Department of History in 91亚色's Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies.

鈥淚 have always found myself drawn to that form of cultural rebellion. I admired the perhaps oversimplified idea of a peace and love movement, and I really loved the music that had been produced from within the ranks of the counterculture,鈥澛爏ays Henderson, a self-professed neo-hippie. 鈥淪o, when I was thinking about how to approach Canadian cultural history, I just aimed straight at this era [the 1960s] and the people I'd always found to be fascinating.鈥�

Left: Stuart Henderson

The true story of the 91亚色ville scene, says Henderson,聽is聽about people trying to find a space in which to "perform" a hip identity and stretch the confines that they felt had been imposed on them by society, their parents and other sociopolitical pressures. "They were all looking for something real, something authentic. In their search, they uncovered some pretty amazing stuff and had some really interesting experiences," he says.聽"But authenticity is elusive and certainly fleeting. It's all about the journey, not the destination, as it turns out.聽A central聽point I want people to recognize聽is that 91亚色ville was not a 'hippie' place. It was a place that聽came to be closely associated with 'hippies'聽but people who fit that mold were never the only people hanging around there."

In Making the Scene, Henderson takes a聽new look at聽the hip mecca and gives a voice to people聽not typically heard in the popular stories associated with聽91亚色ville 鈥撀爓omen, working class youth, business owners and municipal authorities. Members of biker gangs, working class kids (who didn't look much like "hippies", says Henderson), media types, store owners, gallery people, artists and musicians were聽the 91亚色ville neighbourhood.聽"All of these people were there and few of them would count as 'hippies' in any conventional definition, then or now," he says.

He explores how the 91亚色ville neighbourhood came to be regarded as the symbol of hip Toronto in the cultural imagination. Henderson argues that the popular association of 91亚色ville with the flower power generation was more accurately a close association with聽the widespread anxiety in the mid-1960s over the "degeneration" of the middle-class baby boomers into unproductive members of society.

The聽expectation of the time was that the working class and racial minorities would be rebellious and problematic, says Henderson. "The fact that these [hippies] were middle-class teenagers from the suburbs who were dropping acid and growing their hair and losing their virginity was聽what kept journalists and municipal authorities up at night."

91亚色ville in the 1960s, he says, was always more complicated than the 91亚色ville hippies.

In writing the book, which sprouted from his PhD dissertation, Henderson says there were many memorable experiences. "I got to spend some time with [writer and activist] who was a hero of mine. She was an astoundingly committed philanthropist and activist, and she always positioned herself at the forefront of battles to protect people from a system which had forgotten them," he says. "We spent an afternoon together a few months before she died and I was just so appreciative of her desire to participate in this project at such a late stage of her illness. I'll never forget that when I asked her why she was willing to come talk to a stranger under these circumstances, she just said: 'Oh, well, I trust the process. Write a good book'."

His next project involves a cultural history of the communal residence and alternative education experiment of the era, Rochdale College on Bloor Street. "I am writing a sequel of sorts to the 91亚色ville book. I am working on a book on Rochdale College and what I have termed 'hip separatism' in the 1970s," he says. "While 91亚色ville saw people performing cultural difference right there in the open," he says, "Rochdale remained closed to outsiders and tourists聽and聽represents a certain retreat from the integrationist, even evangelical, politics of '60s-era hip youth."

Despite his fascination with the 1960s, Henderson says that if he could dine with anyone, dead or alive, his choice would be Canadian artist Tom Thomson. "I have some good buddies who died too young. It'd be nice to see one of them again, but how do you choose? So, I'll be a Canadian cultural historian and say dinner over a campfire with Tom Thomson somewhere in Algonquin Park on a star-filled night. But mostly because I really like camping."

The film will be screened tonight in the Nat Taylor Cinema, N102 Ross tonight from 6:30 to 9:15pm. Created by New 91亚色 filmmaker Ellen Weissbrod, this documentary film pays tribute to聽 and her life. It also explores public responses to a recent major exhibition, held in聽Rome, New 91亚色 City and St. Louis, devoted to her work and that of her father Orazio.

The film features an interview with Elizabeth Cohen, 91亚色 professor of history, women's studies and humanities in the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies.

"Artemisia Gentileschi painted really dramatic and gutsy stuff, and has become one of the heroines of women's history," says Cohen. "As a young woman, Artemisia was raped by a colleague of her father's and聽there is a聽trial record that documents her family situation and these events. This archival material is my research area and I speak about it in the film."

But the film is more than historical, says Cohen, because it聽also represents in a beguiling way the strong and moving responses of modern students and museum visitors to聽Gentileschi's work and story.

"The film-maker Ellen Weissbrod, from New 91亚色, will be present," says Cohen. Following the film, there will be a panel discussion featuring Cohen, along with professors from the Departments of Women's Studies, Film Studies, Visual Arts and History.

A Woman Like That tracks the filmmaker's journey to understand Artemisia Gentileschi in her own times and for 21st -century viewers. It features interviews with scholars and writers who brought the painters' work to North American attention. Weissbrod also travels to Italy to talk with museum curators, art dealers and collectors of Gentileschi's work.

The screening is free and open to the public.

Right: The poem "My Countryman" by Jos茅 Salvador Cavero is written in Quechua in the book Lira Huamanguina, published in Ayacucho (Peru) in 1950

It is his interest in how Quechua has been reinvented throughout history, the country鈥檚 evolving language policy and the current state of bilingualism in Peru 鈥撀燼 concept Canada also struggles with 鈥撀爐hat has earned聽Durston the , worth $25,000 in research funding. The prize is awarded annually to an outstanding new researcher. This is in addition to the three-year standard SSHRC research grant he received last year worth $60,000 for his project, 鈥淭he Social History of Quechua Letters: Modern Peru, 1900-1975鈥�.

Quechua鈥檚 written history dates back to the 16th century, when Spanish conquerors introduced the Roman alphabet and sought to convert the population to Christianity using indigenous language texts. 鈥淗owever, it is not until the start of the 20th century that we find written Quechua being used for a wide range of purposes,鈥� says Durston. Intellectuals started writing plays, poetry, political propaganda, speeches, medical texts and newspaper and journal articles in Quechua to fuel national identity and nation-building by reaching a broader section of the population.

鈥淪uddenly, we have this boom. New kinds of texts that haven鈥檛 appeared before start appearing,鈥� says Durston. As Latin American countries moved away from Western influence, the rising middle class turned toward indigenous cultural traditions and developed an interest in the country鈥檚 indigenous language. 鈥淭his was a high point of Latin American nationalism.鈥� It鈥檚 also a period that has attracted little scholarly attention. 鈥淧eople today aren鈥檛 aware of the diversity and richness of what鈥檚 available.鈥� Much of the material is housed in one library and is mostly forgotten.

Left: Alan Durston

One of the barriers preventing Quechua from becoming a more mainstream written language is its perceived association with the Incas. People think they have to write Quechua the way the Incas would have spoken it, but that鈥檚 absurd, says Durston. 鈥淨uechua is not just this fossil, this relic of the Incas; it鈥檚 a living language. You can write it the way people speak today.鈥�

Quechua continues to be spoken by people not only in Peru, but Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia and Argentina, and by many who wouldn鈥檛 consider themselves indigenous. In some parts of Peru it is spoken universally. But since the 1950s, production of literary material in Quechua has dropped significantly. Most people writing in Quechua today have little training in it as there is such a dearth of available written material to read, says Durston.

Although Quechua was given official language status in the 1970s, it wasn鈥檛 promoted, he says. Unlike in Canada where all road signs, food items, government forms, documents and the like are in both official languages, Quechua doesn鈥檛 appear next to Spanish anywhere. 鈥淚t hasn鈥檛 really succeeded as a written language in politics or law.鈥�

He hopes his research, however, will increase interest in the current stock of written Quechua material and in producing more. 鈥淚 do think my research has the potential to help Quechua in Peru,鈥� says Durston.

As part of his project, he plans to write a book in both Spanish and English about his research and develop an online archive of written Quechua material that will be available to anyone. He is the author of , which looks at the world of colonial Quechua culture through language.
