SUMMARY:David A. Bell\, Sidney and Ruth Lapidus Professor in the Era of North Atlantic Revolutions; Professor of  History\, Princeton University\, “The Greek Revolution in the Age of Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:  \nDavid A. Bell is a historian of early modern France\, with a particular interest in the political culture of the Old Regime and the French Revolution. He attended graduate school at Princeton\, where he worked with Robert Darnton\, and received his Ph.D. in 1991. From 1990 to 1996 he taught at Yale\, and from 1996 to 2010 at Johns Hopkins\, where he held the Andrew W. Mellon Chair in the Humanities\, and served as Dean of Faculty in the School of Arts and Sciences. He joined the Princeton faculty in 2010. He has been the recipient of fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation\, the American Council of Learned Societies\, and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. \nBell has written six books. Lawyers and Citizens (Oxford University Press\, 1994) examined the politicization of the French legal profession in the eighteenth century\, showing how spaces for radical criticism of the French monarchy first opened up within the structure of the French state itself. The Cult of the Nation in France (Harvard University Press\, 2001) argued that nationalism\, as opposed to national sentiment\, was a novelty of the French Revolutionary period\, and that it arose both out of\, and in reaction to\, Christianity. The First Total War (Houghton Mifflin\, 2007) is a general study of the political culture of war in Europe between 1750 and 1815. It showed how an aristocratic culture of limited warfare gave way to a world in which total war was possible—and in which\, between 1792 and 1815\, it actually took place. More recently\, Oxford University Press published two new books by Bell: Napoleon: A Concise Biography (2015)\, and an essay collection\, Shadows of Revolution: Reflections on France\, Past and Present (2016). Finally\, in 2018\, W.W. Norton published a textbook co-authored by Bell and Anthony Grafton: The West: A New History. Bell has also co-edited two volumes: Raison universelle et culture nationale au siècle des lumières\, with Ludmila Pimenova and Stéphane Pujol (Honoré Champion\, 1999)\, and Rethinking the Age of Revolutions: France and the Birth of the Modern World\, with Yair Mintzker (Oxford University Press\, 2018). Bell’s new book\, Men on Horseback: Charisma and Power in the Age of Revolutions will be published in 2020 by Farrar\, Straus\, Giroux. \nIn addition to his research and teaching\, Bell writes frequently for a range of general-interest publications. He is committed to the proposition that serious history can be readable\, enjoyable\, and accessible to an interested general public. \nUCLA Professor Lynn Hunt introduces this lecture\, which is also sponsored by the Department of History and the UCLA Center for European and Russian Studies. \nTo participate in this event\, RSVP here.

SUMMARY:Helen Angelomatis-Tsougarakis\, Professor Emerita of History\, Ionian University 		“Fighters and Victims: Women's Lives during the Greek Revolution”
DESCRIPTION:The heroic events of the Greek Revolution of 1821 that eventually led to the liberation of part of Greece and the establishment of the modern Greek State had a tragic side for all Greeks. At the same time\, they sowed the seeds for the changes that would gradually introduce Greeks to the realities of the modern Western world. This lecture discusses the heroism and the tragedy\, as well as the transition into modernity\, by focusing on key aspects of the lives of Greek women during the Revolution. Examining factors that impacted their lives in diverse ways\, from geographical location to socioeconomic position\, we will see how Greek women assumed the roles of victims and fighters\, and how they and their children reacted to the extreme conditions they had to face. The discussion will also address noteworthy changes in the mores and customs of Greek society\, and the ways in which new legislation introduced by the Provisional Governments affected women’s lives. \nHelen (Eleni) Angelomatis-Tsougarakis is professor emerita of the Ionian University. She studied History and Archaeology at Athens University and she holds a DPhil in Modern History from the University of Oxford. She was a Research Director in the Research Centre for Medieval and Modern Greek Studies of the Academy of Athens\, and afterwards a professor at the Department of History of the Ionian University. She taught pre-modern and modern Greek History\, and for several years directed the M.A. Program: “Methodology on Criticism and Editing Historical Sources.” Through this program a considerable number of previously unpublished sources of various periods have been edited and commented on by students under her supervision. Several of these sources have subsequently been published. \nShe has published extensively on various aspects of Greek history from the 15th through to the 19th century. Her interests cover a wide spectrum of subjects: social history\, history of intellectual life and education\, church history\, landscape history\, and travel literature as a historical source. She has published seven books\, and edited seven more books and collective volumes. She has also published over seventy papers in academic journals and collective volumes. \nTo participate in this event\, RSVP here.
