In light of current restrictions on gatherings, Charla de Merienda has been made available as a podcast. For those who are new to new to the platform, CdM is a joint production of Lawerence Talks, Inc and The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies at KU. For our first podcast production, we explore the topic of marginalized bodies in relation to COVID-19 and the policies passed in response to it. Not all bodies are affected the same in terms of health, politics, and economics. While much of the narrative so far has been concerned with discussions of “going back to normal”, there is another conversation being had about whether going back to normal is not the preferred outcome for everyone. To help us navigate these issues, we sit down with three KU Scholars: Araceli Masterson-Algar | Associate Professor | Portuguese and Spanish | University of Kansas Sylvia Fernández Quintanilla, Ph.D. | Public and Digital Humanities Postdoctoral Research Fellow | Hall Center for the Humanities | University of Kansas Hannah Soyer | MFA in Creative Writing | University of Kansas

On this episode of the New Books Network, Lee Pierce (she/they) interviews E. Michele Ramsey of PennState Berks on Major Decisions: College, Career, and the Case for the Humanities (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2019), a robust defense of Communication and the Humanities as disciplines of study. Major Decisions is a breathtaking work of research that proves the values and skills taught in humanities disciplines are exactly those needed in the 21st century. Despite the persistence of the myth “you can’t get a job with an English or Theatre major,” Major Decisions, which Ramsey co-authored with Laurie Grobman, shows that not only are humanities majors welcome on the job market; their critical thinking skills and creativity are also integral to advancing the work of science, technology, medicine, math, and engineering. Indeed, the core skills and knowledge imparted by an education in the humanities—including facility with written and verbal communication, collaboration, problem-solving, technological literacy, ethics, leadership, and an understanding of the human impacts of globalization—are immensely useful to employers across a variety of sectors. I hope you enjoy listening as I much as I enjoyed chatting with Michele about this important book.

Dr. Brandon Alkas - Assistant Professor - English Program, Department of Fine Arts ans Humanities - University of Alberta - Augustana Faculty

In Jews, Gentiles, and Other Animals: The Talmud After the Humanities (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2017), Mira Beth Wasserman undertakes a close reading of Avoda Zara, arguably the Talmud’s most scandalous tractate, to uncover the hidden architecture of this classic work of Jewish religious thought. She proposes a new way of reading the Talmud that brings it into conversation with the humanities, including animal studies, the new materialisms, and other areas of critical theory that have been reshaping the understanding of what it is to be a human being. Even as it comments on the the rabbinic laws that govern relations between Jews and non-Jews, Avoda Zara is also an attempt to reflect on what all people share in common, and on how humans fit into a larger universe of animals and things. As is typical of the Talmud in general, it proceeds by incorporating a vast and confusing array of apparently digressive materials, but Wasserman demonstrates that there is a whole greater than the sum of the parts, a sustained effort to explore human identity and difference. In centuries past, Avoda Zara has been a flashpoint in Jewish-Christian relations. It was partly due to its content that the Talmud was subject to burning and censorship by Christian authorities. Wasserman develops a twenty-first-century reading of the tractate that aims to reposition it as part of a broader quest to understand what connects human beings to each other and to the world around them.
