The Connaught Global Challenge Initiative,\u00a0Entangled Worlds: Sovereignty, Sanctities and Soil<\/em>\u00a0is pleased to present the two events in\u00a0its\u00a0Connecting the Books Series<\/strong>\u00a0for the upcoming Winter 2022 semester.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As an extension of the Entangled Worlds\u2019 \u201cHoly Infrastructure\u201d Reading Group, which has thus far considered the transdisciplinary ways in which infrastructures, sovereignties, charisma, and the political are inextricably linked,\u00a0Connecting the Books<\/strong> seeks to further this analysis by considering these themes in connection with two recently published ethnographies and their authors: Elayne Oliphant<\/a>\u2019s\u00a0The Privilege of Being Banal: Art, Secularism, and Catholicism in Paris<\/em>\u00a0(2021, Chicago Press); & Maria Jos\u00e9 de Abreu<\/a>\u2019s The Charismatic Gymnasium: Breath, Media, and Religious Revivalism in Contemporary Brazil<\/em> (2021, Duke University Press).<\/p>\n

The Connecting the Books Series <\/strong>began with a conversation with Charles Hirschkind<\/a>, on the topic of his recent book, The Feeling of History: Islam, Romanticism and Andalusia<\/em> (2020, Chicago Press) on February 25th<\/sup>, 2021; and continued with J. Brent Crosson<\/a> and his book, Experiments with Power: Obeah and the Remaking of Religion in Trinidad<\/em>\u00a0(2020, Chicago Press) on March 24th<\/sup>, 2021. The events with Elayne Oliphant and with Maria Jos\u00e9 de Abreu will conclude this series.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The format of these events will include a brief introduction by an advanced graduate student, foregrounding the themes of Holy Infrastructures in relation to the respective ethnography, followed by a brief presentation by the author. General discussion and question-answer period to follow.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since these are in-conversation events we ask that attendees read the respective ethnographies or part of them, which can be found in the University of Toronto online catalogue.<\/p>\n
