SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Revolutionary Embodiments: Gender and Genre in Xie Bingying’s War Diary and Autobiography of a Woman Soldier
DESCRIPTION:One of the most popular stories of the Chinese “Revolutionary Noras” of the late 1920s to 1940s is that of Hunanese social activist and writer Xie Bingying\, in her series of autobiographical texts presenting herself as a “woman soldier.” From her initial series of dispatches for the Wuhan Central Daily News describing her experience on the battlefront during the last months of the Northern Expedition in 1927\, which were later published as \"War Diary\,\" to her multiply revised and internationally acclaimed life story\, \"Autobiography of a Woman Soldier\,\" to the War of Resistance period \"New War Diary\,\" the epithet “women soldier” became part of her public persona and her continued popular appeal as a new type of woman writer. I ask how we can understand the identification “woman soldier” in Xie’s autobiographical texts as a particular intervention into both the construction of revolutionary womanhood and the category of “women’s literature” in the late-Republican period in China.\n\nAnup Grewal is an assistant professor in the Department of Historical and Cultural Studies at the University of Toronto Scarborough and the Tri-Campus Graduate Department of History at the University of Toronto. She is currently working on a book manuscript entitled\, “A Revolutionary Women’s Culture: Rewriting Femininity and Women’s Experience in China\, 1926-1949.” Dr. Grewal received her PhD in East Asian Languages and Civilizations from the University of Chicago in 2012. She has previously held positions as a postdoctoral fellow in the Asian Modernities and Traditions Profile Area at Leiden University\, and as Lecturer in Chinese and Comparative Literature at King’s College London. Her research interests include modern and contemporary Chinese cultural history\, literature\, film\, and gender studies. Dr. Grewal’s published work has appeared in \"Modern Chinese Literature and Culture\,\" \"Comparative Literature and Culture\,\" and \"The Journal of Chinese Cinemas.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Holly Hughes Lecture\, \"Memories of the Revolution: The First Ten Years of the WOW (Women’s One World) Cafe\"
DESCRIPTION:Holly Hughes talks about her new book\, co-edited with Carmelita Tropicana\, and Jill Dolan.\n\nAbout the book: \"The women’s experimental theater space called the WOW Café (Women’s One World) has been a vital part of New York’s downtown theater scene since 1980. Since that time\, WOW has provided a place for feminist and particularly lesbian theater artists to create\, perform\, and witness a cultural revolution. Its renowned alumnae include playwright and actor Lisa Kron\, performance artists Holly Hughes and Carmelita Tropicana\, the theater troupe the Five Lesbian Brothers\, and actors/playwrights Peggy Shaw\, Lois Weaver\, and Deb Margolin\, among others.\n\nMemories of the Revolution collects scripts\, interviews\, and commentary to trace the riotous first decade of WOW. While the histories of other experimental theater collectives have been well documented\, WOW’s history has only begun to be told. The anthology also includes photographs of and reminiscences by Café veterans\, capturing the history and artistic flowering of the first ten years of this countercultural haven.\"\n\nWriter and performer Holly Hughes is Professor in the Stamps School of Art and Design\, the Department of Theatre and Drama\, and Women's Studies at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

DESCRIPTION:I will discuss the history of the generalized Poincare conjectures\, which ask whether a manifold which has the homotopy type of a sphere is actually homeomorphic/diffeomorphic to the standard sphere. I will then present Milnor's first example of an exotic manifold. That is\, a manifold with two non-diffeomorphic smooth structures. Speaker(s): John Kilgore (UM)

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Mah-Jongg
DESCRIPTION:Mah-Jongg is a Chinese game resembling Gin Rummy\, but played with colorful tiles instead of cards.  Easy to learn\, it can become quite addictive!  \n\nClasses start with a brief lecture\, followed by actual playing of the game with continuous guidance from the instructor.  Mah-Jongg sets will be provided. \n\nThis class for those 50 and over will meet for 90 minutes on Tuesdays from October 4 through November 15.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Coupled Pattern Formation in the Belousov–Zhabotinsky Reaction
DESCRIPTION:As a system is driven from equilibrium it develops structure. This structure can be highly ordered as for example in cellular convection in a fluid or in can be subtle such as in turbulence. Highly ordered states are now known to fall in to a few universal classes determined by symmetry and the type of instabilities active in the system. In this talk I will describe experiments and simulations that examine what happens when such pattern forming system must compete with each other.
