SUMMARY:Webinar: Dr. Joseph Viscomi\, "Decolonising Community. Extraterritoriality\, Historical Time\, and the Departure of Italians from Egypt."
DESCRIPTION:This talk aims to rethink political community-formation by considering the role of extraterritoriality in conditioning the national and imperial contexts of Italian residents in Egypt from 1882 to the 1950s. Arguing that ‘community’ has been taken for granted in studies of the modern Mediterranean\, Dr. Viscomi will discuss the emergence of a political community of Italians from Egypt (italiani d’Egitto) by reflecting on their anticipated\, actual and remembered departures. In doing so\, this talk works against the teleological narrative of decolonisation as rupture in order to illustrate the processes which together compelled over 40\,000 Italians to leave Egypt by the 1960s.

SUMMARY:Webinar with Prof. Nükhet Varlık. Past Plagues in the Time of COVID-19: Why the Islamic Plague Experience Matters
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\n\nWe are currently experiencing one of the most disruptive pandemics in modern history. The COVID-19 pandemic has so far resulted in more than 38 million confirmed cases and more than one million deaths. Where we stand now\, how many more it will infect or kill worldwide\, how long it will continue\, and when—if ever—life will go back to normal are still uncertain. What we know for sure is that this is a pivotal moment and that we are experiencing a historic event that will transform our societies both profoundly and irreversibly. As we wade into this new age of pandemics\, it is critical to rethink how we write the history of pandemics. With a conviction that the past helps us to understand the present and the present should help us to rethink the past\, I turn to the legacy of past plagues. In this presentation\, I will take stock of the lasting legacies of past plagues because they continue to shape the way we think about new pandemics. In particular\, I will address persistent problems\, such as European exceptionalism\, triumphalism\, and epidemiological orientalism that are not only ubiquitous in plague studies\, but also staples of public opinion about pandemics\, past and present.
