SUMMARY:In the Workshop of an Ancient Egyptian Sculptor
DESCRIPTION:In 1912\, the excavation team of the Deutsch Orient-Gesellschaft under the direction of Ludwig Borchardt revealed the exceptional remains of the estate and workshop of an ancient Egyptian sculptor of the middle of the 15th century BCE\, who worked for Pharaoh Akhenaten in the latter’s new royal residence of Akhet-Aten (modern Amarna)\, in Middle Egypt. Next to the world-famous bust of Nefertiti\, the German excavators unearthed a collection of plaster portrait studies that allow reconstructing the creation procedure of ancient Egyptian portraits as well as the technique used to ensure the consistency of royal portraiture in ancient Egypt. The presentation will address those issues from a hands-on perspective\, as well as the reason why this royal sculptor\, named Thutmose\, kept those plaster pieces in his estate. \n  \nDimitri Laboury is Research Director of the FNRS\, the National Foundation for Scientific Research of Belgium\, at the University of Liège\, where he teaches Ancient Egyptian Art History\, Archaeology\, History and History of Religion\, as Associate Professor. Trained as an Egyptologist and an Art Historian\, he specialized in the study of Ancient Egyptian thought and cultural history through the art of that civilization. His interests range from the study of royal statuary to the analysis of painterly practices in the decoration of Theban Tombs\, and from the history of western reception of Ancient Egyptian art to a theoretical approach to the functioning and meaning of Ancient Egyptian art. He is currently preparing the edition of an Oxford Handbook of Egyptian Epigraphy and Paleography at Oxford University Press. \n  \nEvent Flyer \n[gravityform id=”77″ title=”true” description=”true”]

SUMMARY:Searching for Scribal Curriculum in Ancient Israel
DESCRIPTION:Professor William Schniedewind will present the outlines of his research in progress—a book on Scribal Education in Ancient Israel. The research proposes that outlines of scribal curriculum in early Israel can now be reconstructed based on his interpretation of the recently fully published inscriptions from Kuntillet Ajrud and using parallels with Mesopotamian scribal curriculum and its adaptations into other Levantine scribal settings. \n  \nEvent Flyer\n\nPlease RSVP for Event\n[gravityform id=”48″ title=”false” description=”false” ajax=”true”]\n  \n

SUMMARY:The Politics of Inequality in Israel: New Insights from the Social Justice Protest of 2011
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE TALK\nIn Israel in the summer of 2011 at least one in five adult citizens participated in a wave of street protests\, critiquing rising inequality and demanding increased government intervention. This represented an exceptional departure from normal welfare state politics in Israel\, which lies outside the left/right division and is dominated by parties and pressure groups representing specific sectors of society. \nTo the extent that the social protest succeeded in breaking down barriers defined by class\, culture and politics\, what made this possible? The protest was dominated by affluent\, left-leaning secular Jews. Haredim (ultra-Orthodox) and Arabs\, sympathetic to some of the protest’s messages but alienated from its messengers\, generally refrained. However\, new evidence documents and helps explain exceptions.\nIt reveals a de facto alliance between traditionally dominant Ashkenazi (European) Jews and upwardly mobile segments of the historically marginalized Mizrachi (Middle Eastern) population. These findings have implications for both the political sociology of protest and the study of Israeli society and politics. \n\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nMichael Shalev is Visiting Israel Institute Professor of Political Science at UC-Berkeley. He is Emeritus Professor from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem who served as chair of the Departments of Sociology and Political Science. Shalev’s primary interests are (1) the comparative political economy of rich democracies\, including studies of labor relations\, welfare states and gender inequality; and (2) electoral politics\, political economy and the welfare state in Israel. \nHe is co-editor with Asa Maron of Neoliberalism as a state project: Changing the political economy of Israel (forthcoming from Oxford University Press). His recent research is on the wave of mass protests in Israel and Southern Europe in 2011. \n  \nCo-sponsored by the UCLA Department of Sociology &\nDepartment of Near Eastern Languages & Cultures \nEvent Flyer
