SUMMARY:Making Maya Men: Fantasy\, Voyeurism\, and Queer Abjection
DESCRIPTION:Figure 1 from Making Maya Men: Fantasy\, Voyeurism\, and Queer Abjection \nAbstract:\nFranciscan friar Diego de Landa\, in the mid sixteenth century\, and Hollywood film producer and director Mel Gibson\, in the early twenty-first century\, created Maya men as abject queer beings. In 1566 Landa wrote his Relación de las cosas de Yucatán\, an extensive ethnographic text. In 2006\, Gibson released Apocalypto\, a Hollywood film in which all dialogue was in Yucatec Maya. Landa and Gibson both argued that they showed the true Maya world\, but each expressed a visceral reaction to Maya sacrifice\, and\, in so doing\, infested their own fantasies with nightmares of savage Maya men. This article argues that by analyzing the voyeurism and fantasies of Landa and Gibson we can come to terms with the position of Maya society in the modern Western imagination. \nOPEN TO UCLA GRADUATE STUDENTS AND FACULTY ONLY\n[gravityform id=”6″ title=”true” description=”true”]\n  \n

SUMMARY:ACLA Conference 2018
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe American Comparative Literature Association’s 2018 Annual Meeting will take place at the University of California\, Los Angeles (UCLA) in Los Angeles\, California between March 29th and April 1st\, 2018. \nThe ACLA’s annual conferences have a distinctive structure in which most papers are grouped into twelve-person seminars that meet two hours per day for three days of the conference to foster extended discussion. Some eight-person (or smaller) seminars meet just the first two days of the conference. This structure allows each participant to be a full member of one seminar\, and to sample other seminars during the remaining time blocks. Depending on space availability\, we may also consider accepting a limited number of one-day seminars\, especially if they are innovative either in presentation format or in terms of theme. The conference also includes plenary sessions\, workshops and roundtable discussions\, and other events. \n  \nRegistration pricing for the 2018 ACLA Annual Meeting is as follows: \n\n\n\nUndergraduate\n$35.00 (USD)\n\n\nGraduate Student\n$85.00 (USD)\n\n\nIndependent Scholar\n(includes retired faculty)\n$95.00 (USD)\n\n\nFaculty\n$195.00 (USD)\n\n\n\n  \nMore information can be found at the ACLA official site.
