This brings new valence to widely circulated notions of cultural and material consumption and their affective dimensions (e.g. desires, appetites). Building on foundational work by scholars including Pierre Bourdieu, Claude L\u00e9vi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes, researchers have added food to the ever-growing list of cultural products deserving of inquiry. This relatively new concern with food opens up the possibility of thinking consumption and appetites in broader terms. How do we consume bodies, images, and cultures? How can the humanities engage with food studies? Is it possible to think the consumption of food alongside other forms of consumption? This conference, aimed at graduate students in all disciplines across the humanities, social sciences, and sciences, is concerned with appetite and consumption in all their varied aspects.\r\n\r\nWe are very pleased to announce that this year's keynote speaker will be Rey Chow, the Ann Firor Scott Professor of Literature at Duke University. Situated at the intersection of critical theory, cultural studies, literary studies, film and media studies, and postcolonial studies, many of Chow\u2019s recent publications directly address the connections between the culinary and the cultural, with food becoming a window into the depths of the ordinary. Chow\u2019s work also focuses on issues of cultural translation as tied to commodification. This nexus is central to discourses of consumption (culinary and otherwise), while at the same time bringing visual culture, cinema, literature, and new media into the conversation.\r\n\r\nThursday, March 10 \r\n\r\nKeynote Lecture by Rey Chow, Duke University\r\n\u201cA Tale of Deliveries\u201d \r\n5:00 PM \u2013 7:00 PM \r\nAssembly Hall, Rackham 4th Floor \r\n\r\nReception \r\n7:00 PM \u2013 9:00 PM \r\nAssembly Hall, Rackham 4th Floor\r\n\r\n\r\nFriday, March 11 \r\n\r\nEdible and Eating Bodies \r\n10:30 AM \u2013 12:00 PM\r\nWest Conference Room, Rackham 4th Floor\r\n\r\nCatherine Ellis, University of Durham - \u2018Sera-ce le contre-poison de la fatale Justine?\u2019: Textual Antidotes, Edible Prostitutes, and Cannibal Monks in R\u00e9tif de la Bretonne\u2019s l\u2019Anti-Justine (1798)\r\n\r\nLisa Haushofer, Harvard University \u2013 Appetite Historicized: The Eating Body and Nineteenth-Century Physiology of Digestion\r\n\r\nHelen Yilun Huang, University of Oregon \u2013 Visual Sensations: From Josephine Baker\u2019s Banana Skirt to Miss Chiquita\u2019s Fruit Hat\r\n\r\nModerator: Mariane Stanev\r\n\r\nCLIFF@20 Lunchtime Roundtable \r\n12:15 PM \u2013 1:30 PM\r\nWest Conference Room, Rackham 4th Floor \r\n\r\nJeffrey Middents, American University - CLIFF 1996 \r\nMonika Cassel, New Mexico School for the Arts - CLIFF 1996 \r\nCorine Tachtiris, Earlham College - CLIFF 2006 & 2007 \r\nGenevieve Creedon, Princeton University - CLIFF 2010 & 2011\r\nModerator: M\u00e9lissa G\u00e9linas, CLIFF 2016 \r\n\r\nFood in America \r\n1:45 PM \u2013 3:45 PM\r\nWest Conference Room, Rackham 4th Floor\r\n\r\nNicole Rudisill, University of Wisconsin \u2013 A Full Stomach: Life Behind the Fa\u00e7ade of Fondant and Festivities\r\n\r\nBriel Kobak, University of Chicago \u2013 Straight Whiskey and the Producer\/Consumer It Protects\r\n\r\nNicolyn Woodcock, Miami University \u2013 Remembering the \u201cForgotten War\u201d: Transnational Entanglements and Foodie Trends in Eating Military Base Stew\r\n\r\nModerator: Xiaoxi Zhang \r\n\r\nFood as Data \r\n4:00 PM \u2013 5:30 PM \r\nWest Conference Room, Rackham 4th Floor\r\n\r\nLelian Maldonado, University of California, Riverside \u2013 Artifact Acquisition, Public Consumption, and the Contemporary Destruction of Ancient Sites\r\n\r\nMarina Merlo, University of Montreal \u2013 Food, Porn, and Selfies: Photographic Cultures of Consumption\r\n\r\nBrad Bolman, Harvard University \u2013 Tasting\/Testing Hogs: Cooking and Consumption as Science\r\n\r\nModerator: Vedran Catovic\r\n\r\n\r\nSaturday, March 12 \r\n\r\nMaking the Nation \r\n10:30 AM \u2013 12:30 PM\r\nWest Conference Room, Rackham 4th Floor\r\n\r\nDenise Castillo, University of Wisconsin \u2013 Chiles en nogada: The Creation of National Identity\r\n\r\nDiksha Dhar, Fulbright Visiting Scholar, University of Pennsylvania \u2013 Is It Actually about Beef?
