SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture\, Charlotte Connop\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The stabilization of the continental crust over geologic timescales is reliant upon the stratification of the crust into a felsic upper crust and a more mafic lower crust. This chemical stratification of the crust is deeply influenced by metamorphism and partial melting of the middle-to-lower continental crust. These processes are energy intensive\, particularly in the middle crust due to elevated heat fluxes imposed by surface temperatures. Moreover\, contrary to the view of a global mafic lower crust\, felsic metasedimentary rocks are commonly found in exhumed metamorphic terranes and xenoliths from the deep crust. The presence of these sedimentary rocks\, which are typically enriched in heat producing elements (U\, Th\, K)\, within the lower crust alters the thermal profile and rheology of the continental crust\, potentially leading to destabilization. In this talk I will explore two Variscan middle-to-lower continental crust exposures\, the Trois Seigneurs Massif\, French Pyrenees\, and the Ivrea-Verbano Zone\, Italian Alps\, to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the addition of sedimentary rocks to the deep crust\, alongside the mechanisms and timescales of metamorphism and partial melting of these sedimentary rocks. Massifs formed at the end of the Variscan Orogeny\, including these two field sites\, record widespread metamorphism and partial melting events within the continental crust\, and as such are ideal places to answer long-standing questions regarding crustal formation and evolution.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Seeing is Knowing\, or is it?: Caste\, Protein\, and Realism
DESCRIPTION:This talk explores the role of caste in perceptions of reality in British India. It brings together three different modes of representing reality: social\, scientific\, and literary. Colonial ethnography attempted to understand caste as a distinct form of Indian civil society and painstakingly theorized caste-as-race. Colonial nutrition\, drawing on ethnographic understandings of caste\, hierarchized the very innards of Indians by mapping the racial basis of caste along the lines of contemporary dietary debates about protein. All the while\, colonial novelists used ethnographic and dietary understandings of caste to envision their version of a realistic world in a fictional form. The incipient form of the realist novel in India thus deployed caste as the perfect marriage of exteriority and interiority to represent a legible Indian reality in a newly imported form. In connecting these seemingly disparate modes of reality perception\, Sapui argues that in late nineteenth and early twentieth century India\, caste epistemologies\, understood as observable physical differences and knowable communal characteristics\, were key to understanding what is construed as Indian reality. In this regard\, seeing to know—the cornerstone of all empirical knowledge—as this talk will show\, assumes political\, pedagogical\, and insidiously persistent charge.\n\nMeghna Sapui is a postdoctoral fellow at the Michigan Society of Fellows and an assistant professor of English language and literature at the University of Michigan. Her work has appeared in *ELH\, Victorian Literature and Culture\, Victorian Review*\, and *Global Food History*. She is working on her book\, *Edible Empire: Tasting & Writing India*\, which looks at gastro narratives in the literature of British India.\n\n*Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.*\n\nFree and open to the public
