This week’s UMIH News: a look back at Fall 2024
by U Of M Institute For The Humanities 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

Dear Friends of UMIH, I write today to thank you for your support for UMIH this fall. We’ve explored a wide range of topics, skills, and methods that matter to the humanities. They have included, among many other things, a contemporary staging of an historical drama, professional editing skills, the media history of hobbyist woodworking, strategies for dissertation writing, connections between beading and storytelling, Ukrainian diasporic writing, and the crafting of haiku. We temporarily transformed a boardroom into a studio space to explore weaving methods and block printing traditions and we made time to learn from the many people who generously contributed to UMIH’s programming as speakers or event hosts. Those contributors include (from the University of Manitoba): Dr. Brenda Austin-Smith, Dr. Alison Calder, Dr. Warren Cariou, Dr. Sean Carleton, Dr. David Churchill, Dr. Sarah Elvins, Dr. Michelle Faubert, Dr. Erin Keating, Dr. Len Kuffert, Dr. Mike Sampson, and Dr. David Watt. They also include (from beyond the University of Manitoba): Dr. Urvashi Chakravarty, Dr. Celiese Lypka, Dr. Emily Maggiacomo, Dr. Carla Manfredi, Dr. Mariya Shymchyshyn, Dr. Maria Zytaruk, Lisa Hislop, Michelle Waitzman, Kristian Enright, Mark Nowak, Dr. Melanie Dennis Unrau, Moni Brar, Jenna Butler, Sam Jones, and Kelly Shepherd. Special thanks go to our UMIH Research Cluster leaders, Dr. Jamie Paris and Dr. Serenity Joo. Thanks also go to UMIH Research Assistant Lakshmisree Shaji Marar and to UMIH student interns Hanako Teranishi and Patrick Fermin. Thank you to Ekene Emeka Maduka for all her work for the Institute. Of course, I also want to thank all who attended talks, participated in hands-on crafting sessions, or made time to prepare for and participate in our book group. We will be sharing our winter schedule with you early in the new year. By way of a sneak peek, we can let you know that we look forward to collaborating with the Centre for Creative Writing and Oral Culture on several events. We can also look forward to presentations by UMIH affiliates Dr. Youcef Soufi and Rachel Shields and by Graduate Fellows Karen Brglez and Carla Kennedy. It’s going to be another great term at UMIH. As always, I welcome your suggestions for ways that UMIH can support your teaching, learning, research, and outreach in the humanities. This is especially true as we finalize plans for the Winter Term. Don’t hesitate to be in touch. With best wishes for a restful break, Vanessa Dr. Vanessa Warne (Interim Director UMIH<https://www.instagram.com/umih___/?hl=en>, 2024-2025)

Your UMIH news for the last week of November
by U Of M Institute For The Humanities 25 Nov '24

25 Nov '24

Dear Friends of UMIH, we have three events happening this week. They are... A UMIH CRAFTERNOON: BLOCK PRINTING This Wednesday (Nov 27 at 2:30), join us for a UMIH Crafternoon dedicated to block printing, a technique with a very long and rich history. We have tools for 18 makers to join us; first come, first served. We provide the supplies; there is no cost; zero experience required. Take your printed pieces and the block you carve home with you. If you prefer, bring a craft of your own. We’ll meet in Tier 409. All are welcome. Here’s some visual inspiration: [cid:5973cad6-27e6-40c2-ae2e-ebc39211e874] SPECIAL LECTURE: CULTIVATING FLAX FOR PAPERMAKING This Friday (Nov 29 at 2:30 on Zoom), we celebrate UMIH’s semester-long exploration of hands-on humanities with a special lecture: “Public Humanities on the Ground: Cultivating Flax for Papermaking in a Campus Community Garden” with Dr. Maria Zytaruk (University of Calgary). Please email umih(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:umih@umanitoba.ca> for the link. All are welcome. Here are some details: This lecture treats the more than year-long project that Zytaruk and a group of students, university staff, and community members undertook to cultivate flax for hand papermaking in the campus garden. In cultivating flax during a time of climate crisis, and against the backdrop of smoke-filled skies due to forest fires, questions about the sustainability of paper and books, in the hand-press period and today, became pressing matters. And lastly, a quick reminder for UMIH Book Group members that our second meeting, devoted to the second half of Tiya Miles’ All That She Carried, takes place on Thursday, the 28th in Tier 409 at 2:30. See you there!

We’ll be exploring BLOCK PRINTING, a technique used to print patterns on both paper and fabric. We have tools for 18 makers to join us; first come, first served.

If you prefer, you can bring a craft of your own. We’ll meet in Tier 409. All are welcome. HANDS-ON HUMANITIES VISITING SPEAKER And last but not least, please save the date for a lecture celebrating UMIH’s semester-long exploration of hands-on humanities: “Public Humanities on the Ground: Cultivating Flax for Papermaking in a Campus Community Garden” with Dr. Maria Zytaruk (University of Calgary) Friday November 27 at 2:30 on Zoom Please email umih(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:umih@umanitoba.ca> for the link. All are welcome. Here is some information about this talk: This lecture treats the more than year-long project that Zytaruk and a group of students, university staff, and community members undertook to cultivate flax for hand papermaking in the campus garden. From the sixteenth century to about the mid nineteenth century, paper in Europe was made from linen and hemp rags. Timothy Barrett has written of the ways in which rag paper embeds an “intimacy between the fibre and its human handlers.” Zytaruk’s project made tangible the labour, agricultural and creative, that coalesces in each piece of handmade paper. In cultivating flax during a time of climate crisis, and against the backdrop of smoke-filled skies due to forest fires, questions about the sustainability of paper and books, in the hand-press period and today, became pressing matters. As always, UMIH welcomes your suggestions for ways to support your teaching, learning, research, and outreach in the humanities! Don’t hesitate to be in touch.
