SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:(CANCELLED) - Palomitas Cineclub: Festival de cine presents Ixcanúl\, Volcán (Ixcanúl\, Volcano)
DESCRIPTION:Ixcanúl\, Volcán (Ixcanúl\, Volcano)In Maya and Spanish with English subtitlesWith María Mercedes Coroy\, María Telón\, Manuel Antún\, Justo Lorenzo\, Marvin CoroyGUATEMALA’S OFFICIAL ENTRY TO THE ACADEMY AWARDS®The brilliant debut by Guatemalan filmmaker Jayro Bustamante is a mesmerizing fusion of fact and fable\, a dreamlike depiction of the daily lives of Kaqchikel speaking Mayans on a coffee plantation at the base of an active volcano. Immersing us in its characters’ customs and beliefs\, Ixcanul chronicles with unblinking realism\, a disappearing tradition and a disappearing people.Maria\, a 17-year-old Mayan girl\, lives and works with her parents on a coffee plantation in the foothills of an active volcano in Guatemala.An arranged marriage awaits her: her parents have promised her to Ignacio\, the plantation overseer. But Maria doesn’t sit back and accept her destiny.Pepe\, a young coffee cutter who plans to migrate to the USA becomes her possible way out. Maria seduces Pepe in order to run away with him\, but after promises and clandestine meetings\, Pepe takes off\, leaving her pregnant\, alone and in disgrace. There’s no time to lose for Maria’s mother\, who thinks abortion is the only solution. Yet despite her mother’s ancestral knowledge\, the baby remains\, “destined to live.”But destiny has more in store for Maria: a snakebite forces them to leave immediately in search of a hospital. The modern world Maria has so dreamt about will save her life\, but at what price… Palomitas Cineclub Winter 2020 Film Festival The Palomitas Cineclub\, organized by graduate students of the Romance Languages & Literatures Department\, has been awarded a Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* to sponsor public screenings of contemporary Iberoamerican film at the University of Michigan. All films will be screened in their original languages with English subtitles. The series will be free and open to the public.Combining the funds from the Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* with additional financial support from within the university\, we will screen six contemporary Latin American feature films and documentaries between February 26 and April 3 on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm in the Modern languages Building\, 1220 (Lecture Room 1):Frágil equilibrio (Guillermo García Lopez\, 2016)\, Tempestad (Tatiana Huezo\, 2016)\, Ixcanul\, Volcán (Jayro Bustamante\, 2015)\, La soledad (Jorge Thielen-Armand\, 2016)\, El abrazo de la serpiente (Ciro Guerra\, 2015) and Pájaros de verano (Ciro Guerra and Cristina Gallego\, 2018). Each screening will be followed by an informal discussion session during which the audience is invited to discuss the film.We welcome everyone to participate in a space of cultural engagement where undergraduate and graduate students can come together to practice their language skills and partake in critical discussions of cinema. *The Spanish Film Club Festival Grant was made possible with the support of Pragda\, SPAIN arts & culture\, and the Secretary of State for Culture of Spain.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Dear Stranger: Diaries for the Private and Public Self
DESCRIPTION:Through this exhibit\, we invite you to explore more than two centuries of diaries and diary-like documents from across the holdings of the Special Collections Research Center\, ranging from privately emotive to publicly informative\, from offering news reportage to depicting emotional processing\, and from factual to purely fictional. As you read\, consider how these journals embody elements of both private and public writing and the permeability between those spheres.\n\nDiaries\, journals\, daily planners\, notebooks: these ephemeral writings provide documentation of private lives and thoughts that can otherwise be difficult to find in the historical record. But does “private” necessarily imply unfiltered and unmediated? Many theorists have noted that the diarist is both writer and reader\, both private and public self. Therefore the content and form of diaries are created for future reading\, even if only by a future version of the self. The ambiguity of a diary’s audience is heightened in the case of published diaries. The form suggests that we\, as readers\, are accessing raw\, unfiltered thoughts\, but rounds of revision are common\, and often essential to clearly convey the intended meaning. Even further from our notions of authentic\, private writing\, fictional diaries are written solely to be published and read by the public\, but use the diary form to draw the reader into a particular relationship with the text and its protagonist.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CANCELLED   Developmental Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:Note this event has been cancelled.\n\nAndrea Mora\n\nTitle:  \nNeighborhood Dangers Facing Adolescents: Community Violence and Gender-Based Harassment\n\nAbstract:\nAmple research examines community violence as a serious public health problem that disproportionately affects minority adolescents (World Health Organization\, 2002). Although a rising public health concern as well (Kaltiala-Heino et al.\, 2016)\, less research investigates adolescents’ experiences of gender-based harassment in poor\, urban neighborhoods. Using data from 416 urban\, low-income Latino/a adolescents (53% female\; Mage = 15.5)\, this study examined the relations between community violence exposure (CVE)\, gender-based harassment\, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms\, and the moderating role of parent-child cohesion. Findings revealed that greater exposure to both CVE and gender-based harassment was associated with greater PTSD symptoms. Notably\, the effect of gender-based harassment on PTSD symptoms was far greater than the effect of community violence. Additionally\, the association between gender-based harassment and PTSD symptoms was exacerbated when parent-child cohesion was high\, compared to when it was low or average. Findings highlight the importance of examining gender-based harassment when studying violence in neighborhoods to fully capture urban adolescents' experiences in their communities.\n\nJessica Montoro\n\nTitle:\nLatinx Adolescents Facing Multiple Daily Stressors and the Protective Role of Familismo\n\nAbstract: \nFamilism\, or familismo\, is a highly endorsed Latinx cultural value that encompasses using family members as attitudinal and behavioral exemplars\, turning to family members as sources of support\, and prioritizing the family’s well-being over the individual’s (Stein et al.\, 2014). Although several studies have examined whether familismo protects youth from one type of stressor at a time (e.g. community violence exposure\, discrimination\, substance abuse)\, few scholars have compared the differential effects of both general and cultural stressors on Latinx youth’s psychological functioning (Ayón et al.\, 2010\; Stein et al.\, 2012). This study examined the potentially protective effects of familismo among Latinx adolescents facing a myriad of stressors\, both cultural and general. Survey data for this study were drawn from a sample of 224 low-income\, Latinx 9th graders (age M = 14.5) attending 3 high schools in the Northeastern United States. When both cultural and general stressors were accounted for\, greater material need was associated with increased depressive symptoms and a less positive future orientation. Moreover\, familismo endorsement protected adolescents from depressive symptoms linked to material hardship. Results suggest that cultural stressors may be less distressing to Latinx adolescents compared to general stressors\, like financial hardship\, and familismo is an important cultural value that may help Latinx adolescents navigate various types of stressors.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Spatial metaphors across sign languages with automatic and manual methods\"
DESCRIPTION:Postdoctoral researcher Carl \"Calle\" Borstell will give a talk titled \"Spatial metaphors across sign languages with automatic and manual methods.\" ASL interpretation will be provided. \n\nABSTRACT\nConcepts may be construed along different spatial axes. In this talk\, I will show an analysis of sign locations in 776 signs from 16 antonym pairs across 27 sign languages in the Spread the Sign online dictionary to examine metaphorical mappings of emotional valence (positive vs. negative). The study makes use of both an automatic (Openpose) and a manual analysis of sign location and movement direction to investigate cross-linguistic patterns of spatial valence  contrasts. In accordance with the hypothesis\, positive valence concepts are more often associated with upward movements than their negative counterparts\, pointing to a systematic pattern for vertical valence contrasts – a known metaphor across languages – iconically mapped onto physical sign articulation. However\, the same pattern does not hold for relative sign heights\, such that positive valence concepts are generally articulated higher than negative valence concepts. Thus\, it seems the dynamic contrast in movement is the key property\, rather than plain height. Interestingly\, there is also a difference in the distribution of movements along the sagittal axis\, such that outward movement is more often associated with positive than negative valence\, a finding that warrants further cross-linguistic research on spatial metaphors.

SUMMARY:Other:Chaperoning Evolution
DESCRIPTION:                        Protein homeostasis (proteostasis) networks\, along with fundamental biophysics\, govern protein evolution. Acquisition of adaptive amino acid mutations during evolution is often kinetically or thermodynamically destabilizing to proteins. Chaperones from the proteostasis machinery can rescue these destabilizing mutations when they occur in endogenous client proteins. By combining new methods for chemical perturbation of proteostasis machinery with evolutionary biology techniques\, we discovered that this phenomenon has profound impact on the ability of RNA viruses to adapt to environmental and immune system pressures. In particular\, we show that influenza hijacks host chaperones to address folding defects that viral proteins acquire as they evolve to escape the host’s innate and adaptive immune systems. The dependence of viruses on their host’s protein folding network makes them highly vulnerable to immune suppression when folding assistance is limited. Host chaperones\, therefore\, play a central role in facilitating viral adaptation at the host–pathogen interface\, a finding with potentially far-reaching implications for viral host-switching and drug/antibody resistance development. Currently\, we are investigating how these types of phenomena impact the evolution of other disease-relevant genes\, including oncogenes.                        \n                       \n                        \nMatthew Shoulders (MIT)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Prophet as a ‘Sacred Spring'
DESCRIPTION:Along with the Prophet’s relics\, verbal icons of Muhammad known as hilyes count among the most popular forms of devotional art during the late Ottoman period. While manuscript paintings and compositions mounted on wooden boards have been the subject of scholarly inquiry\, an otherwise unknown type of hilye production involves the insertion of verbal icons into glass bottles. Today\, three such “hilye bottles” are held in the Topkapı Palace Library in Istanbul\, where they remain unstudied and unpublished. This talk aims to present these newly uncovered artworks and explore their possible meanings and functions\, among them their acting as a new kind of prophetic pharmacon during the late nineteenth century\, at which time Muhammad was concretized and ‘imbibed’ as the ultimate elixir vitae.
