After Europe: Postcolonial Knowledge in the Age of Globalization
Keynote Address: Carlo Ginzburg, Franklin D. Murphy Professor of Italian Renaissance Studies, UCLA
2010 will mark ten years since the publication of Dipesh Chakrabarty’s highly influential and generative Provincializing Europe: Postcolonial Thought and Historical Difference. The moment therefore offers a unique opportunity to take stock, in the form of a one-day conference, of the book’s many habitations over the past decade. The conference will take place on March 12, 2010 at the University of Chicago. It will be a venue in which to explore the varied influence of Provincializing Europe not only in South Asian history and postcolonial studies, but also in fields as diverse as medieval studies, European history, musicology, and African, Latin American and Australasian studies. The conference aims to take stock of these multi-regional and multi-disciplinary conversations as well as to engage their future iterations.
Participants include Arjun Appadurai, Bain Attwood, Dipesh Chakrabarty, Faisal Devji, Miranda Johnson, Sandro Mezzadra, Sheldon Pollock, Sanjay Seth, and Ajay Skaria, with a keynote to be delivered by Carlo Ginzburg.
