SUMMARY:The Luminous Religion: How was Christianity Translated into Chinese?
DESCRIPTION:China is known for three major faith traditions: Buddhism\, Daoism\, and Confucianism. Did you know that there has also been a Christian presence in China since A.D. 635? Alongside traded goods\, Christianity traveled into East Asia via the Silk Road. Persian monks from what is now Iraq\, Syria\, and Iran gained the support of Emperor Taizong and began an extensive missionary effort centered in China’s ancient capital\, Chang’an. \nThanks to archaeological evidence\, scholars know that this community of Christian believers prospered. Ancient texts discovered in the Dunhuang caves and a massive stone artifice called the Xi’an Stele preserved the rich theological tradition of this Christian community. These archaeological finds also document the methods the Syriac-speaking Persian monks used to translate Christian concepts and ideas into the Chinese language and culture. \nIn this presentation\, Duffy Fellow Anastasia McGrath\, FCRH ’21\, will examine the lexicological meaning behind the translation methods employed in these early Chinese Christian texts and inscriptions. This critical linguistic examination will bring to life the world of medieval China and this unique era of forgotten history. McGrath studied international political economy and Mandarin. \nThis is a Duffy Fellows program event.

SUMMARY:Power and the Cross: The Rise of Agricultural People’s Front of Peru in Peruvian Politics
DESCRIPTION:The participation of the Agricultural People’s Front of Peru or Frente Popular Agricola del Peru (FREPAP) in Peruvian national politics arose from the combination of American expansionism\, the growth of evangelical Christianity\, and the emergence of a strong Israelite movement in South America. \nQuestions and concerns have emerged about the cult-like organization and activities of FREPAP and other Peruvian evangelical groups. Although their mainstream impact is not significant\, their presence\, force\, and participation in Latin American politics cannot be ignored. \nUsing a theological and sociological framework\, Duffy Fellow Carlos Orbegoso Barrios\, FCRH ’21\, will draw conclusions on the future of FREPAP and the impact of similar parties and movements in Latin America. Barrios double majored in theology and economics. \nThis is a Duffy Fellows program event.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Zachary Karabell on Inside Money: Brown Brothers Harriman and the American Way of Power
DESCRIPTION:Conspiracy theories have always swirled around Brown Brothers Harriman\, and not without reason. Throughout the 19th century\, when America was convulsed by a devastating financial panic essentially every 20 years\, Brown Brothers quietly went from strength to strength\, propping up the U.S. financial system at crucial moments and catalyzing successive booms\, from the cotton trade and the steamship to the railroad\, while largely managing to avoid the unwelcome attention that plagued some of its competitors. By the turn of the 20th century\, Brown Brothers was unquestionably at the heart of what was meant by an “American Establishment.” As America’s reach extended beyond its shores\, Brown Brothers worked hand in glove with the State Department\, notably in Nicaragua in the early 20th century\, where the firm essentially took over the country’s economy. To the Brown family\, the virtue of their dealings was a given; their form of muscular Protestantism\, forged on the playing fields of Groton and Yale\, was the acme of civilization\, and it was their duty to import that civilization to the world. \nIn Inside Money\, acclaimed historian\, commentator\, and former financial executive Zachary Karabell offers the first full and frank look inside this institution against the backdrop of American history. Provided with complete access to the company’s archives\, as well as a thrilling understanding of the larger forces at play\, Karabell has created an X-ray of American power—financial\, political\, cultural—as it has evolved from the early 1800s to the present. Today\, unlike many of its competitors\, Brown Brothers Harriman remains a private partnership and a beacon of sustainable capitalism\, having forgone the heady speculative upsides of the past 30 years but also having avoided any role in the devastating downsides. The firm is no longer in the command capsule of the American economy\, but\, arguably\, that is to its credit. If its partners cleaved to any one adage over the generations\, it is that a relentless pursuit of more can destroy more than it creates. \nAbout the Speakers\nZachary Karabell was educated at Columbia\, Oxford\, and Harvard\, where he received his Ph.D. He is a prolific commentator\, both in print and on television\, and the author of a dozen previous books\, including The Last Campaign\, which won the Chicago Tribune’s Heartland Prize\, and The Leading Indicators. He is also a longtime investor\, former financial services executive\, and the founder of the Progress Network. \nCopies of Inside Money will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:How Was the COVID-19 Vaccine Developed So Quickly?
DESCRIPTION:Under normal circumstances\, making a vaccine often takes more than a decade. So\, how were researchers and scientists able to create the COVID-19 vaccine in less than a year\, without compromising safety? Find out on July 21 as Fordham welcomes Helen Fletcher\, Ph.D.\, professor of immunology and associate dean of research at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine\, for a live chat about what we’ve learned from the development of the COVID-19 vaccine\, and how we can use these methods to accelerate the development of vaccines for other diseases. \nProfessor Fletcher will be joined by John Chelsom\, Ph.D.\, director of Fordham’s Applied Health Informatics master’s program\, offered at Fordham’s London campus this fall. \nFind out how scientists used data from around the world—received in real-time—to make decisions that are getting the world back on its feet\, and how this will propel scientific discovery in the future. \nAudience members will have the opportunity to pose questions.

In 1977\, after purchasing a seat on the American Stock Exchange and trading as an individual market maker in equity options\, Peterffy was among the first to apply a computerized mathematical model that would disseminate continuous bid and offer\nprices. Five years later\, he built and ran an automated trading system for equity options and\, in 1983\, he was the first to develop a tablet computer for use by his employees trading on exchange floors. \nBy 1986\, Peterffy developed and employed a fully integrated\, automated\, market-making system for stocks\, options\, and futures. As this pioneering system extended around the globe\, online brokerage functions were added. In 1993\, Interactive Brokers was formed\, using its global capacity for transaction processing to link up with the electronic exchanges that were starting up around the world. Today\, Interactive Brokers seeks to stay at\nthe forefront of automation and to remain the low-cost producer. It is the second-largest publicly traded electronic broker\, as measured by DARTs\, providing direct access trade execution and clearing services to institutional and professional traders for a wide variety of electronically traded products\, including stocks\, options\, futures\, forex\, bonds\, CFDs\, and funds on more than 135 trading venues and 27 currencies around the world. \nBob Pisani is senior markets correspondent for CNBC. A CNBC reporter since 1990\, Pisani has covered Wall Street and the stock market for nearly 20 years. He covered the real estate market for CNBC from 1990-1995\, then moved on to cover corporate management issues before becoming a stocks correspondent in 1997. In addition to covering the global stock market\, he also covers initial public offerings\, exchange-traded funds\, and financial market structure for CNBC. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:“Unearthing Buried Narratives: Reconstructing the Experiences of Enslaved People Through Jesuit Records”
DESCRIPTION:Recalling the Catholic enslaved experience reveals new patterns about enslavement within the Catholic Church and the instrumental ways enslaved people formed community\, resisted their enslavement\, and shaped their faith. Prize-winning scholar Kelly L. Schmidt\, Ph.D.\, invites the audience to engage with records about enslaved people in Jesuit archives\, cross-referencing them and reading against the grain to discover the limitations resulting from enslaved people being prevented from keeping records about their own lives.

SUMMARY:Things Get Broken: A Jesuit Reflects on Leonard Bernstein’s MASS 50 Years Later
DESCRIPTION:On September 8\, 1971\, the premiere of Leonard Bernstein’s MASS inaugurated the Kennedy Center in Washington\, D.C. Commissioned by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in memory of her late husband\, the work bore the weight of a decade of sorrows: the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy\, his brother Robert\, and Martin Luther King Jr.; racial unrest over civil rights; ongoing losses in the Vietnam War; the recent Kent State shootings; and much more. \nIn this lecture\, Stephen Schloesser\, SJ\, will explore not only Bernstein’s masterpiece—and its incorporation of Jewish and Catholic liturgical elements—but also its resonance for our present moment as we try to emerge from a lethal pandemic in the face of grave threats to our civic order. \nThis event inaugurates the Ignatian year at Fordham\, a global observance by the Society of Jesus to commemorate the moment 500 years ago when a cannonball shattered the leg of Ignatius of Loyola. The wound put an end to his youthful dreams of personal glory but started Ignatius on a journey of conversion. \nLoss was not the last word for Loyola—as it was not for Bernstein\, whose music provides both lament and hope after a broken year. \nSchloesser\, Professor of History at Loyola University Chicago\, specializes in modern European intellectual and cultural life and writes extensively on music\, religion\, mysticism\, Jesuits\, and Catholic thought and culture. \nDavid Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate the discussion\, including questions from the audience.

SUMMARY:The Russia Question Hosts Nadieszda Kizenko for a Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:The Russia Question is a book talk series devoted to all things Russia\, hosted by Michael Ossorgin\, professor and Russian program director at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus\, with generous support from the Orthodox Christian Studies Center. Join us for a book talk with Nadieszda Kizenko to discuss her brilliant book\, Good for the Souls: A History of Confession in the Russian Empire (June 2021). \nFrom the moment that Tsars\, as well as hierarchs\, realized that having their subjects go to confession could make them better citizens as well as better Christians\, the sacrament of penance in the Russian empire became a political tool\, a devotional exercise\, a means of education\, and a literary genre. It defined who was Orthodox\, and who was “other.” First encouraging Russian subjects to participate in confession to improve them and to integrate them into a reforming Church and state\, authorities then turned to confession to integrate converts of other nationalities. But the sacrament was not only something that state and religious authorities sought to impose on an unwilling populace. Confession could provide an opportunity for carefully crafted complaints. What state and church authorities initially imagined as a way of controlling an unruly population could be used by the same population as a way of telling their own story—or simply getting time off to attend to their inner lives. \nGood for the Souls brings Russia into the rich scholarly and popular literature on confession\, penance\, discipline\, and gender in the modern world\, and in doing so opens a key window into church\, state\, and society. It draws on state laws\, Synodal decrees\, archives\, manuscript repositories\, clerical guides\, sermons\, saints’ lives\, works of literature\, and visual depictions of the sacrament in those books and on church iconostases. Russia\, Ukraine\, and Orthodox Christianity emerge both as part of the European\, transatlantic religious continuum and\, in crucial ways\, distinct from it. \nAbout the Speakers\nNadieszda Kizenko is a history professor and director of religious studies at the University at Albany. She is the author of the prize-winning book A Prodigal Saint: Father John of Kronstadt and the Russian People\, numerous articles on Orthodox Christianity including “The Feminization of Patriarchy? Women in Contemporary Russian Orthodoxy” (winner of Best Article\, Association for the Study of Eastern Christianity)\, and several translations. \nMichael Ossorgin\, who earned a Ph.D. in Slavic languages and literature from Columbia University\, teaches Russian and comparative literature\, art\, theology\, and language courses at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus. He has published articles on Dostoevsky’s The Idiot and Notes From the Dead House. He is currently writing a book on the role of vision in Dostoevsky’s poetics. Ossorgin thanks the Orthodox Christian Studies Center for its support not only of The Russia Question\, but also for grants to design and teach OCSC-credited courses\, including\, The Apocalypse: Russian and American Visions\, The Russian Icon in Dialogue with the Arts\, and the first of three summer courses in The Great Russian Minds Series on Mikhail Bakhtin. Ossorgin is the director of Fordham University’s Russian program.

SUMMARY:Is it Time to Decolonize the Terms Byzantine & Byzantium?
DESCRIPTION:The people we call “Byzantine” self-defined as “Romans.” The terms “Byzantium” and “Byzantine” were first employed by Western scholars more than a century after the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in an effort to differentiate what they perceived to be the authentic Roman empire from its later\, eastern\, and Christian derivation. For centuries\, these terms circulated within Western scholarship with a not-so-subtle sense of derogatory critique (e.g.\, Edward Gibbon). Perhaps ironically\, “Byzantine” and “Byzantium” were subsequently embraced among Orthodox Christian populations who tend to view the period as a golden age of Orthodox civilization. This expert panel\, moderated by George Demacopoulos\, Fordham University\, will explore these issues and debate the viability/suitability of revising the terminology for the field. \nPanelists\nElizabeth Bolman\, Case Western Reserve University\nAnthony Kaldelis\, Ohio State University\nLeonora Neville\, University of Wisconsin\nAlexander Tudorie\, St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary

SUMMARY:Jewish Studies and Black Studies in Conversation Series: Black and Jewish in Early America
DESCRIPTION:Even as recently as the early 2000s\, when a large range of scholarship was dedicated to Black-Jewish relations\, nearly all of these discussions were framed by a Black-Jewish binary\, with Jews on one side and Blacks on the other. Such a history\, however\, ignores not only the experiences of Jews of color in the U.S. today\, but also in the past. In this conversation between Fordham’s Westenley Alcenat and Laura Leibman\, professor\, Reed College\, the latter draws from her new book about a multiracial Jewish family in the early Atlantic world to illustrate how emphasizing the long history of Jews of color forces us to reshape and reconsider what we know about Jews in the Americas. \nAbout the Speakers\nLeibman is a professor of English and humanities at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon\, and author of The Art of the Jewish Family: A History of Women in Early New York in Five Objects (Bard Graduate Center\, 2020)\, which won three National Jewish Book Awards. Her earlier book\, Messianism\, Secrecy and Mysticism: A New Interpretation of Early American Jewish Life (2012)\, won a Jordan Schnitzer Book Award and a National Jewish Book Award. Her work focuses on religion and the daily lives of women and children in early America\, and uses everyday objects to help bring their stories back to life. She has been a visiting fellow at Oxford University\, a Fulbright scholar at the University of Utrecht and the University of Panama\, and the Leon Levy Foundation Professor of Jewish Material Culture at Bard Graduate Center. \nAlcenat is a 19th-century historian of the U.S and Caribbean who teaches at Fordham. His scholarship covers the shared histories of African Americans and Afro-Caribbean people in connection with the wider African diaspora in the Atlantic world. His manuscript in revision\, “Children of Africa\, Shall Be Haytians: Prince Saunders and the Foundations of Black Emigration to Haiti\, 1775-1865\,” is a study of the radicalism and ideologies of African American settlers who emigrated to Haiti in the antebellum era. Alcenat is a past recipient of the Richard Hofstadter Fellowship from Columbia University. He has been awarded fellowships from the Library Company of Philadelphia\, the Massachusetts Historical Society\, the Hoover Institute’s Library and Archives\, the Woodrow Wilson Foundation\, the Social Science Research Council-Mellon Mays Graduate Initiative Grants\, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History\, and the Schomburg Center for Research in African-American Culture. \nFrom 2015 to 2016\, he was a visiting scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a visiting associate fellow at the Weatherhead Initiative on Global History at Harvard University. Before arriving to Princeton\, he was a residential postdoctoral research associate at the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery\, Resistance\, and Abolition at Yale University’s MacMillan Center. Alcenat has written or provided commentary for The Jacobin Magazine\, Theroot.com\, and The Immanent Frame. He is also a contributing guest writer for the Black Perspectives Blog\, the official publication of the African American Intellectual History Society.

SUMMARY:The 17th Annual Rita Cassella Jones Lecture: “The Juncture of Worlds: Scholarship As a Way of Life\, and Living As a Scholarly Practice”
DESCRIPTION:Universities began in the Middle Ages as an extension of Catholic monasticism\, an intellectual world separate from the practice of everyday life. In many ways\, advanced scholarship retains something of its original monastic flavor. Academics are taught to keep a respectable distance from their subjects\, to aim for objectivity\, to cultivate detachment. But what are we missing when we constrain scholarship within these normative dimensions? \nIn dialogue with her most recent work on Catholic narratives of sickness and disability in early modern French North America\, Mary Corey Dunn\, Ph.D.\, University of St. Louis\, articulates a vision for a more humane kind of scholarship beyond the ivory tower: one that sits at the juncture of the personal and the professional\, lived experience and archival record\, scholarly practice and everyday life. \nThis will be an in-person presentation streamed live and recorded. In-person attendance is restricted to vaccinated Fordham community members; registration is required for all attendees.

Academics are taught to keep a respectable distance from their subjects\, to aim for objectivity\, to cultivate detachment. But what are we missing when we constrain scholarship within these normative dimensions?

SUMMARY:Jewish Studies and Black Studies in Dialogue Series: Race\, Religion\, and Black Jewish Identity in Early 29th-Century U.S.
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Judith Weisenfeld and Jenna Weissman Joselit will explore the theologies\, practices\, and politics of early 20th-century congregations in the U.S. in which members claimed Ethiopian Hebrew identity and navigated race and religion among Black Christians and Jews of European descent. \nAbout the Speakers\nWeisenfeld is the Agate Brown and George L. Collord Professor of Religion and chair of the Department of Religion at Princeton University\, where she is also associate faculty in the Department of African American Studies and in the Gender and Sexuality Studies program. She is the author of New World A-Coming: Black Religion and Racial Identity During the Great Migration (NYU\, 2016)\, which won the 2017 Albert J. Raboteau Prize for the Best Book in Africana Religions\, Hollywood Be Thy Name: African American Religion in American Film\, 1929-1949 (California\, 2007)\, and African American Women and Christian Activism: New York’s Black YWCA\, 1905-1945 (Harvard 1997). Her current research focuses on the psychiatry\, race\, and Black religions in the late 19th and early 20th-century United States. \nJenna Weissman Joselit\, the Charles E. Smith Professor of Judaic Studies and history professor at George Washington University\, is the author of Set in Stone: America’s Embrace of the Ten Commandments. A monthly columnist for Tablet\, whose work has also appeared in The New York Times\, the New Republic\, Gastronomica\, and Material Religion\, she is currently writing a cultural biography of Mordecai Kaplan for Yale University’s Jewish Lives series.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Yacine Ali-Haimoud\, Ph.D.\, assistant professor\, Department of Physics\, New York University\, will present\, “Hunting for Dark Matter in the Early Universe.” \nIt is now well-established that a large part of the matter in the universe is some substance that appears to be oblivious to any force but gravity. The nature of this “dark matter” remains a mystery—and is one of the most important questions in modern physics. Could it be a new particle\, as light as an electron\, or might it be made of black holes as massive as many suns? \nIn this talk\, Ali-Haimoud will start by giving a brief overview of modern cosmology\, focusing on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). He will then explain how cosmologists can be so sure about the presence and amount of dark matter\, and illustrate how precise measurements of the frequency spectrum and angular fluctuations of the CMB can help shed light on the nature and properties of dark matter. Ali-Haimoud will discuss CMB tests of feeble dark matter interactions with photons\, electrons\, and nuclei\, as well as the signatures of accreting primordial black holes as a potential dark matter candidate.
