SUMMARY:Katherine Fleming\, "How to Think About the Past"
DESCRIPTION:“How to Think About the Past” \nLecture by \nKatherine Elizabeth Fleming \nPresident and CEO\, J. Paul Getty Trust\nand Alexander S. Onassis Professor of Hellenic Culture and Civilization\,\nDepartment of History\, New York University (NYU) \nMarch 2\, 2024 \n4:00 p.m. \nUCLA Fowler Museum\, Lenart Auditorium\nReception to follow \nEvent is free but advanced registration is requested\n \nIntroductory remarks by The Honorable Christina Valassopoulou\, Consul General of Greece in Los Angeles. \nThis lecture will not be livestreamed or recorded. \nIn his poem “O gyrismos tou xenitimenou” (“The Return of the Exile”)\, Giorgos Seferis famously wrote that the protagonist’s nostalgia for Greece had created a “non-existent country.” \nWe access the past in various ways\, none of them totally reliable: memory\, nostalgia\, history — carry with them different implications and different defects. This talk will consider various ways in which these different pathways to the past connect to modern Greek history\, literature\, and nationalism. Drawing on examples from contemporary oral history and from Greek-Jewish memoirs\, it will consider the various ways in which the past is always with us — and always changing. \nKatherine Elizabeth Fleming is President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust and the Alexander S. Onassis Professor of Hellenic Culture and Civilization in the Department of History at New York University (NYU)\, where she served as Provost from 2016 to 2022. A historian of Modern Greece and the Mediterranean\, her interests range from religious identity to historical memory to oral history. In Greece she is the co-director of the large-scale public history project ISTORIMA.ORG\, which she co-founded with the journalist Sofia Papaioannou with a significant grant from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.  From 2012-2016 she was President of the Board of the University of Piraeus in Greece. She currently serves as a political appointee to the administrative board of the University of Paris system in France.  \nThis event is being co-sponsored by the LMU Basil P. Caloyeras Center for Modern Greek Studies and held under the auspices of the Consulate General of Greece in Los Angeles. This program is made possible thanks to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF). \n \n \nParking Information: \nParking for Royce Hall is available in Parking Structure 5 located at: 302 Charles E Young Dr N\, Westwood\, Los Angeles\, CA 90095. Parking Structure 5  is accessible from Royce Drive\, south of Sunset Boulevard\, and west of Hilgard Ave. (in the northeast section of the campus). \nTo view the walking map from Parking Structure 5 to the Fowler Museum\, click here. \nNo parking attendants will be on-site at the parking structure\, and Pay-By-Space/Visitor Parking is extremely limited in this lot\, so we highly encourage you to purchase a parking permit in advance: \n\n\n\nTo save time\, you may purchase your parking permit for $15 in advance using Bruin ePermit: https://bruinepermit.t2hosted.com/pnw2/selectevent.aspx.
