Myths & Migrations
Leronn P. Brooks and William Villalongo

This conversation was held in preparation for the artist's solo exhibition Myths & Migrations, opening at Grinnell Museum in January 2024.

WV:

this is an image of my sculpture Beacon installed at Villa Romana for Black History Month Florence.

I expanded on the central hanging piece that has gourds, seashells, and mineral stones on gold chains. I was trying to take advantage of the full space of this glass pavilion. In this iteration, the piece has sound. I collaborated with another fellow at the American Academy in Rome, Igor Santos. He pulls in sounds from all types of places to make his compositions. We got to talking about the idea of the nocturne after I explained to him that I think about the drinking gourd as a kind of way finder and its connection to the Big Dipper constellation through American folk song. The components of the piece are covered with black velvet to conjure the feeling of looking at the night sky. He started talking, explaining the nocturnes genre in classical music, which I didn't know much about. So he gave me a few things to listen to. Then we recorded some sounds in a park at dusk. He had all these high-powered mics, mics that can pick up vibrations and subtle things. Like the crunching of leaves under your feet. Some could record underwater. He mixed the sounds we found, and eventually I outfitted one of the gourds with a speaker that plays a conch call. Igor's mix of our found sounds come through two speakers at either side of the space. It's like an invocation of night. So the idea is to be immersed in sound from this beacon. A beacon for the diaspora. The object [End Page 177]

LB:

Um, the Blackamoor?

WV:

Well, similar. Testa di moro is just a head and it's a planter vase. Traditionally it's a white female or a Black male.

LB:

Oh! Yes, yes.

以下是对话内容的简要摘录，以代替摘要：神话与迁徙 Leronn P. Brooks 和 William Villalongo 这次对话是为艺术家的个展 "神话与迁徙"（Myths & Migrations）做准备，展览将于 2024 年 1 月在格林奈尔博物馆开幕。 WV：这是我为佛罗伦萨黑人历史月在罗马纳别墅（Villa Romana）安装的雕塑《灯塔》（Beacon）的图片。我对中央悬挂的作品进行了扩充，作品中的葫芦、贝壳和矿物石都被挂在金链上。我试图充分利用这个玻璃亭子的全部空间。在这次迭代中，这件作品有了声音。我与罗马美国学院的另一位研究员伊戈尔-桑托斯合作。他从各个地方收集声音来创作作品。我向他解释说，我认为酒葫芦是一种寻路器，并通过美国民歌将其与北斗星座联系起来，之后我们就开始讨论夜曲的构思。作品的各个部分都用黑色天鹅绒覆盖，让人联想到仰望夜空的感觉。他开始滔滔不绝地解释古典音乐中的夜曲流派，而我对此并不了解。于是他给了我一些东西让我听。然后我们在黄昏的公园里录制了一些声音。他有很多大功率的麦克风，可以捕捉震动和细微的声音。比如脚下树叶的嘎吱声有些还能记录水下的声音他把我们找到的声音混合在一起最后我给其中一个葫芦装上了扬声器，可以播放海螺的叫声。伊戈尔将我们找到的声音混合在一起，通过空间两侧的两个扬声器播放。这就像是对夜晚的召唤。因此，我们的想法是沉浸在这座灯塔发出的声音中。一个散居地的灯塔。物体 [第 177 页末] 点击放大查看完整分辨率图 1.威廉-维拉隆戈，《灯塔》，2022 年。天鹅绒植绒、金链、酒葫芦、Testa di Moro、人造罗勒、黑曜石、石英、赤铁矿、海贝和珊瑚。96 × 24 × 24 英寸。版权：艺术家。照片由意大利佛罗伦萨罗马别墅和 ©Villalongo Studio LLC 提供。 [尾页 178]让人想起那首民谣 "跟着喝水的葫芦"。我还使用了西西里岛的一种民间手工艺品--"testa di moro"。它倒挂着一株罗勒。我不知道你是否见过这些...... LB：嗯，Blackamoor？WV：嗯，类似。Testa di moro 只是一个头，是一个花瓶。传统上是一个白人女性或黑人男性。雷：哦！是的，是的。WV：整个故事发生在十一世纪。摩尔人征服了意大利和西西里岛。一个摩尔人王子吸引了一个西西里女人的注意，他们相爱了，长话短说，她发现他有妻子和孩子，他需要回家。在他们做爱的最后一晚，她砍下了他的头，并在里面种上了罗勒。奇怪的是，大家都觉得引人注目的是罗勒，而不是断头。罗勒长得非常好，于是就有了在阳台上摆放摩尔人头以种植罗勒的习俗。西西里岛的摩尔人头像蕴含着令人难以置信的暴力和血腥，从视觉上让人对摩尔人头像工艺产生认同感。随处可见！雷布：是的，这就像人们用想象力为现实播种的方式。为什么这里会有这么多罗勒？这是从一个黑人的脑袋里长出来的--这是魔幻现实主义。事实和虚构之间并没有突然的分离。在十一世纪，这两个人坠入爱河，这整个起源的想法都很神奇。这几乎就是圣经之类的东西。这与你创造的魔幻催生交织在一起，（如果我可以这么说的话）是你作品中的生成元素。WV：嗯，我想在罗马工作的原因之一，是想更深入地了解时间与黑人存在的关系，以及学者们是如何处理时间跨度的。我从古典和中世纪学者那里...

Too Much Is Too Much? Κόρος in Ancient Criticism and the Poetics of Scale 太多就是太多?Κόρος《古代批评与尺度诗学》

abstract:

The article explores the uses of κόρος (satiety, surfeit) in ancient criticism as part of a poetics of scale. It first shows that κόρος was applied to a wide range of different scales and used for an equally large array of phenomena. Then it suggests that Pindar's references to κόρος in Abbruchformeln (break-off formulas) may have been the origin of its later deployment by critics. Underneath the poetics of scale encapsulated in κόρος, it is finally argued, there is an entanglement of aesthetics with ethics that invites further inquiries.

本文探讨了κόρος(饱、过)在古代批评中作为尺度诗学的一部分的运用。它首先表明，κόρος被广泛应用于不同的尺度，并用于同样多的现象。然后，它表明品达在Abbruchformeln(断裂公式)中对κόρος的引用可能是其后来被评论家使用的起源。在κόρος所包含的尺度诗学之下，最后论证了美学与伦理学的纠缠，这将引发进一步的探究。

Editors' Note

this fall 2023 issue of TAPA brings some familiar sections and some new features. As is the custom at TAPA, our Fall issue contains Matthew Santirocco's Presidential Address, originally delivered at the 2023 SCS Annual Meeting in New Orleans. Paragraphoi, following the model of our section "Classics After Covid" (Spring 2022), continue to be dedicated to issues of broad disciplinary relevance. Almost a year ago, we invited TAPA Associate Editors to suggest themes for Paragraphoi, and Catherine Conybeare proposed a section that would address the themes of rupture and return from a variety of perspectives, focusing especially on graduate students, early-career, and minoritized members of the discipline. "Rupture and Return," conceived, curated, and edited by Catherine Conybeare, offers a multi-generational assessment of pressing issues affecting our community filtered through the very personal views and experiences of a diverse group of authors. In addressing questions of community, inclusion, and identity, the Paragraphoi in this issue look forward to TAPA's upcoming special issue "Race and Racism: Beyond the Spectacular", edited by Sasha-Mae Eccleston and Patrice Rankine, and scheduled for Spring 2024. Finally, we are proud to highlight two exciting pieces on the pedagogy of classical language (Colin Shelton's "What skills do students need for upper division Latin?" and Tom Keeline and Tyler Kirby's "Latin Vocabulary and Reading Latin: Challenges and Opportunities"). Pedagogy research has not typically been a focus of TAPA, but given the role that teaching plays in the lives of most members of the field – and its critical importance in ensuring the field's future – we are pleased to spotlight some of the valuable research into this area. While we continue to learn from specialized journals dedicated to classical pedagogy and from the long-standing investment of colleagues in this area of research and practice, we hope that TAPA too will become a venue for debates about pedagogy, including but not limited to language teaching.

以下是内容的简短摘录，而不是摘要:2023年秋季发行的《TAPA》带来了一些熟悉的章节和一些新功能。按照TAPA的惯例，我们的秋季刊刊登了马修·桑蒂罗科在新奥尔良举行的2023年南海年会上发表的总统演讲。第12段，按照我们的“新冠肺炎后的经典”(2022年春季)部分的模式，继续致力于广泛学科相关性的问题。大约一年前，我们邀请TAPA的副编辑们为段落提出主题，Catherine Conybeare提出了一个章节，将从不同的角度讨论破裂和回归的主题，特别关注研究生、早期职业和该学科的少数成员。《破裂与回归》由凯瑟琳·康尼贝尔构思、策划和编辑，通过不同作者群体的个人观点和经历，对影响我们社会的紧迫问题进行了多代人的评估。在解决社区、包容和身份问题方面，这期文章的作者期待着TAPA即将出版的特刊《种族与种族主义:超越壮观》，该特刊由Sasha-Mae Eccleston和Patrice Rankine编辑，计划于2024年春季出版。最后，我们很自豪地介绍两篇关于古典语言教学法的精彩文章(Colin Shelton的《高年级拉丁语学生需要哪些技能?》和Tom Keeline和Tyler Kirby的《拉丁语词汇和阅读拉丁语:挑战与机遇》)。教育学研究通常不是TAPA关注的重点，但鉴于教学在该领域大多数成员的生活中所扮演的角色，以及它对确保该领域未来的关键重要性，我们很高兴在这一领域重点介绍一些有价值的研究。在我们继续从致力于古典教育学的专业期刊和同事们在这一研究和实践领域的长期投资中学习的同时，我们希望TAPA也能成为一个关于教育学的辩论场所，包括但不限于语言教学。[End Page vii]版权所有©2023中国古典学会…

Thinking about both rupture and return, however, I want to reflect on both what was lost and what was gained.

以下是内容的简短摘录，而不是摘要:断裂与回归:等级制度与教学Amy Pistone我们都清楚地意识到，COVID-19大流行在各个方面的影响都是灾难性的。我既想断裂，也想回归，我想反思失去的和得到的。首先，我把我关于破裂的评论集中在对该领域的成员造成非常真实的伤害的方式上，我怀疑这些方式被许多伤害的肇事者所忽视，因此，不容易修复。在回报方面，我提供了一些关于调整我们的教学的想法，这些想法往往是我们发现自己所处的危机所必需的，我们希望保持这些想法，如果以修改的形式，当我们回到这个新常态时。从学校或大学层面的破裂开始，我们都看到了我们的制度暴露无遗。这并不是说，在大流行之前，意识形态和优先事项就不存在了，但大流行在很多方面都是对机构的压力测试。很明显，一些机构认为自己的员工是在扭亏为盈的斗争中可以牺牲的一线员工。一些学校信任教师，让他们为自己和学生做出最好的决定，而另一些学校则要求学生亲自上课，让健康问题见鬼去吧。我们都以不同的方式看到，我们的机构如何在表面上的使命和价值观与将学生视为客户的模式之间取得平衡。在过去的几年里，面对无数慈悲与效率相冲突的方式，哪些人和机构愿意站在慈悲的立场上?太多的教师没有人保护他们免受政治压力的影响:监督和约束学生，采用灵活的或(但愿如此!)不那么“严格”的评估形式，要求学生出勤和参与，而忽视了我们所面临的连锁危机。许多机构都有大量的工作要做，以赢回被粉碎的信任，一些伤口尚未愈合，可能永远不会愈合。就我们学科的具体内容而言，这些断裂具有略微不同的特征。有许多结构性问题，围绕着专业组织所做的选择，继续影响着今天的领域成员。特别是，我想到了由专业组织主办的会议和其他活动，以及为使每个人都能参加(一些)活动而投入的金钱、时间和劳动力。我们也看到了哪些会议不愿意(和不愿意)这样做——含蓄地告诉我们的领域，他们的参与是可选的。在整个过程中，我们看到，在有足够的政治和社会意愿的情况下，实现更大可及性的步骤(残疾人倡导者被告知根本不可能实现的事情，比如直播和字幕)实际上是可能的。我们一次又一次地看到，预算是一份道德文件。如何分配资金的选择是一个组织优先事项的表现。一些组织认真对待其成员的健康需求(尽管有时不完全)，而另一些组织则对这些成员的关切不感兴趣。这些裂痕也会慢慢愈合。一个不那么明显，但同样深刻的破裂形式是领域成员之间的人际破裂。其中一些是更广泛的政治气候的作用，以及仇恨言论进入主流的方式。这些趋势与COVID-19大流行最严重的时期相吻合，但它们并不完全是疫情的结果。然而，在社会孤立、压力、恐惧、不确定性、悲伤、经济担忧、心理健康损害以及伴随全球大流行的其他一切的坩埚中，许多蓄势待发的紧张情绪终于沸腾了。在这种背景下，我们中的许多人都感受到，看到我们领域的成员公开(在listservs和社交媒体上)谈论他们的古典主义者同行或该领域的状况时，会产生持久的影响。我不是对……

Olivia Hopewell, Emily Aguilar

In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content: <ul> <li> Let Me Know When You Get Home Safe </li> <li> Olivia Hopewell and Emily Aguilar </li> </ul> oh. emily and i are writing this in the summer of 2023 as recent alumnae of Bryn Mawr College's graduate program in Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies. When Catherine approached us to contribute to this "Rupture and Return" issue, we jumped at the opportunity to reflect on our experiences of the past few years in a thoughtful and rather personal manner—and among such an impressive group of contributors. Under the issue's theme, we were asked to describe our experiences as students during the pandemic, start to "finish." We are exploring the rupture and return of this rather unique coincidence of campus closure and social redefinition, of being white Classicists during a time of disciplinary and nationwide reckoning with anti-Blackness and white supremacy. We have both spent significant time since 2020 formulating and reformulating our thoughts on these topics, particularly through our co-foundation of a student-activism group called Students Promoting Equity in Archaeology and Classics (SPEAC), but also simply through our individual ways of coping with this period. These two aspects of our pandemic lives—working with this anti-racist collective and growing as selves—in many ways feel like the throughlines of the last three years, so we have decided to structure our thoughts accordingly: How have we experienced rupture and return as students working with SPEAC? How have we as selves? A few months have passed since that initial conversation with Catherine. I have submitted my doctoral dissertation, Emily her master's thesis, and we are navigating living together for the first time in a new town. Since graduation, we have been in a surreal, atemporal haze of uncertainty and bliss and summer. What I am trying to say here is that it is been a while since we first developed our approach to this prompt, and I have had entirely too much time to think and overthink, landing myself in that familiar existential loop [End Page 355] that makes writing near impossible for two huge reasons: first, my relationship to SPEAC is different now; and second, my thoughts on the nature of the self are developing always. To that first point, the more I try to summarize the role of SPEAC in my experience of the pandemic, the more daunting the task feels because, frankly, my feelings surrounding the group are complex, and while I want to be honest about those feelings, I fear that what I write will fail to explain my intentions.

代替摘要，这里有一个简短的内容摘录:让我知道当你安全到家奥利维亚霍普韦尔和艾米丽阿吉拉哦。艾米丽和我是在2023年夏天写这篇文章的，我们是布林莫尔学院希腊、拉丁和古典研究研究生课程的新毕业生。当凯瑟琳找到我们为这期“决裂与回归”撰稿时，我们欣然接受了这个机会，以一种深思熟虑的、相当个人化的方式，在这样一群令人印象深刻的撰稿人中间，反思了我们过去几年的经历。在本期的主题下，我们被要求描述我们在大流行期间作为学生的经历，从开始到“结束”。我们正在探索校园关闭和社会重新定义这一相当独特的巧合的破裂和回归，在一个纪律严明的时期，在全国范围内对反黑人和白人至上主义的清算中，作为白人古典主义者。自2020年以来，我们都花了大量的时间来形成和重新形成我们对这些主题的想法，特别是通过我们共同建立的一个名为“学生促进考古和经典公平”(SPEAC)的学生活动组织，但也只是通过我们个人应对这一时期的方式。我们流行病生活的这两个方面——与这个反种族主义的集体一起工作和作为自我成长——在很多方面都像是过去三年的主线，所以我们决定相应地组织我们的想法:作为SPEAC的学生，我们是如何经历断裂和回归的?我们如何成为自我?自从和凯瑟琳第一次谈话以来，已经过去了几个月。我提交了我的博士论文，艾米丽提交了她的硕士论文，我们第一次在一个新的城镇一起生活。自毕业以来，我们一直处于一种超现实的、虚幻的迷雾之中，充满了不确定、幸福和夏天。我在这里想说的是，自从我们第一次开发出这个提示的方法以来，已经有一段时间了，我有太多的时间去思考和过度思考，把自己陷入了熟悉的存在主义循环中，这使得写作几乎不可能，原因有两个:第一，我和SPEAC的关系现在不同了;第二，我对自我本质的思考一直在发展。对于第一点，我越是试图总结SPEAC在我的大流行经历中的作用，这项任务就越令人生畏，因为坦率地说，我对这个群体的感受很复杂，虽然我想诚实地表达这些感受，但我担心我写的东西无法解释我的意图。我不喜欢冲突，所以描述我们与SPEAC合作中的任何失望之处，都有自我夸大和自负的危险。我也充分意识到，作为一个享有特权的白人女孩来讨论一个反种族主义组织，太容易读起来像白人救世主烈士的叙述。现实情况是，为了反思我个人和专业的大流行经历，我不得不谈谈SPEAC。这个小组的形成完全与我和我们共同走过的这段时间紧密相连。所以，在我进一步谈论这项工作之前，我想先说明一下我的情况。我们不认为自己是革命者，也不认为我们在SPEAC上做了什么独特的事情(这是一件好事——稍后会详细介绍!)我们充分意识到，我们与SPEAC的合作，以及为其形成提供的情感和智力动力，都是我们白人特权的功能。强调我们在这个领域的角色和自我理解是很重要的。对于第二点，考虑这篇文章这么长时间的另一个症状是:我越来越不确定这个提示的词汇。我不确定我是否将自我或个人经验理解为实际上会破裂的事物，与回归的语言相容的事物。因为很多原因，我们中的很多人都经历过很多不稳定的生活。我是第一代低收入家庭(FGLI)学生，早年生活复杂，我与这种不稳定的关系就是为什么“破裂”对我来说如此困难……

When Catherine approached us to contribute to this \"Rupture and Return\" issue, we jumped at the opportunity to reflect on our experiences of the past few years in a thoughtful and rather personal manner—and among such an impressive group of contributors. Under the issue's theme, we were asked to describe our experiences as students during the pandemic, start to \"finish.\" We are exploring the rupture and return of this rather unique coincidence of campus closure and social redefinition, of being white Classicists during a time of disciplinary and nationwide reckoning with anti-Blackness and white supremacy. We have both spent significant time since 2020 formulating and reformulating our thoughts on these topics, particularly through our co-foundation of a student-activism group called Students Promoting Equity in Archaeology and Classics (SPEAC), but also simply through our individual ways of coping with this period. These two aspects of our pandemic lives—working with this anti-racist collective and growing as selves—in many ways feel like the throughlines of the last three years, so we have decided to structure our thoughts accordingly: How have we experienced rupture and return as students working with SPEAC? How have we as selves? A few months have passed since that initial conversation with Catherine. I have submitted my doctoral dissertation, Emily her master's thesis, and we are navigating living together for the first time in a new town. Since graduation, we have been in a surreal, atemporal haze of uncertainty and bliss and summer. What I am trying to say here is that it is been a while since we first developed our approach to this prompt, and I have had entirely too much time to think and overthink, landing myself in that familiar existential loop [End Page 355] that makes writing near impossible for two huge reasons: first, my relationship to SPEAC is different now; and second, my thoughts on the nature of the self are developing always. To that first point, the more I try to summarize the role of SPEAC in my experience of the pandemic, the more daunting the task feels because, frankly, my feelings surrounding the group are complex, and while I want to be honest about those feelings, I fear that what I write will fail to explain my intentions.

Depression was involved, as was relationship breakdown; sexual assault made an appearance. Paradoxically, my work was the most stable aspect of my life: an understanding supervisor and a research topic fairly separate from my everyday experience helped. Anyway, things were much improved by the end of 2019; 2020 was to be the year in which things started looking up. Well. Still, this is not a COVID piece. I did not get COVID in 2020; I did get a referral to a rheumatology clinic. My joints hurt. All the time. And I was tired all the time. And my brain felt alternatively full of fog and bees. And this was not getting better even when I stayed home and rested and took my antidepressants. As of summer 2022 (the UK National Health Service's [NHS] referral times are dismaying),1 I have a diagnosis of fibromyalgia. Diagnosis marks both a rupture and the opposite of one. A chronic illness is a curious thing: by definition, there is no cure—there may be barely any treatment;2 little in the patient's status changes by virtue of being diagnosed. Chronic illness being [End Page 315] an open-ended state,3 from which there is no return, it can be uncomfortable for both patients and caregivers.4 I want to use the rest of this article to explore this concept through one guiding metaphor with classical connections: the octopus. My primary symptoms are joint and bone pain, so it is tempting to imagine a different kind of embodiment for myself: malleable, tentacular, not confined to the rigid form that causes me deep discomfort. In a sense, this is a utopian, impossible form of adaptation, an unreasonable adjustment: what if instead of struggling to be a human I redesigned myself into a different, more accessible body, a full-body prosthetic?5 What follows is a somewhat rhapsodic set of thoughts about precisely this: bodies, precarity, utopias, what we can do to adapt to ruptures that it is impossible to return from, and of course, cephalopods. <h2>malleability</h2> In a recent lecture on Homer's underwater imagery, Alex Purves argued that the two alternative biographies which the Iliad provides for Hephaestus (the version in which he hits land in Lemnos as told in 1.585–94 and the one in which he hits the sea instead and is raised by Thetis and Eurynome in an ocean cave in 18.393–407) reflect "a split in the fabric of the Iliad itself": between a space defined by land, in which the focus is firmly on the heroes' hard and unforgiving masculinity, and one defined by water, in which social bonds are more flu

这里是内容的简短摘录，而不是摘要:成为章鱼:隐喻的三种变化玛蒂娜·阿斯特丽德·罗达在2018年至2019年之间我碰壁了。抑郁和关系破裂都牵涉其中;性侵犯也出现了。矛盾的是，我的工作是我生活中最稳定的方面:一位善解人意的导师和一个与我的日常经历相当独立的研究课题帮助了我。不管怎样，到2019年底，情况有了很大改善;2020年本应是情况开始好转的一年。好。不过，这不是关于COVID的报道。我没有在2020年感染COVID;我确实被转介到风湿病诊所。我的关节疼。一直都是。我一直都很累。我的脑子里时而充满了雾，时而充满了蜜蜂。即使我呆在家里休息并服用抗抑郁药，情况也没有好转。截至2022年夏天(英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)的转诊次数令人沮丧)，1我被诊断为纤维肌痛。诊断既标志着破裂，也标志着相反的破裂。慢性病是一件奇怪的事情:根据定义，它无法治愈——可能几乎没有任何治疗方法;患者的状态几乎不会因为被诊断而改变。慢性疾病是一种没有止境的状态，一去不复返，对病人和照顾者来说都很不舒服我想利用本文的剩余部分，通过一个具有经典联系的指导性比喻来探索这个概念:章鱼。我的主要症状是关节和骨骼疼痛，所以很容易想象自己的另一种化身:可塑的、触手状的，不局限于使我深感不适的僵硬形式。从某种意义上说，这是一种乌托邦式的、不可能的适应形式，一种不合理的调整:如果我不再努力成为一个人，而是把自己重新设计成一个不同的、更容易接近的身体，一个全身假肢，会怎么样?接下来是一组有点狂想曲的想法:身体，不稳定，乌托邦，我们能做些什么来适应无法恢复的破裂，当然，还有头足类动物。在最近一次关于荷马水下意象的讲座中，亚历克斯·普尔夫斯认为，《伊利亚特》为赫菲斯托斯提供的两种不同的传记(一种是他在1585 - 1594年在利姆诺斯登陆的版本，另一种是他在18393 - 407年在一个海洋洞穴里被忒提斯和欧律诺姆养大的版本)反映了“《伊利亚特》本身结构的分裂”:在一个以陆地为中心的空间里，主人公们坚强而无情的阳刚之气被牢牢地放在了主人公身上;在另一个以水为中心的空间里，社会关系更加流畅，“通过一种更像抒情而不是史诗的媒介来表达”。这种分裂也反映在赫菲斯托斯的不同种类的工艺上:在海底的错综复杂的有机珠宝(“许多锻造的物品，胸针，扭曲的螺旋线，花形和项链”)，7和为阿喀琉斯锻造的坚硬的贝壳状盔甲。我很想对柔软的优点赞不绝口，或者更准确地说，柔软的可塑性，如果你喜欢一个学术性的术语的话。这是一个很好的自传式叙述:我正在从计算语言学的“硬科学”(我的博士课题)转向思考残疾、具体化和(奇怪的)规范性失败的软土地。这个比喻有自己值得尊敬的学术历史:通过接受我的残疾(以及我身份的其他方面，我将在这里保密)，我已经打破了我僵硬的外壳，回归生活，接受了章鱼的方式——柔软而适应性强，随时准备把我的身体塞进任何小缝隙，以一种既陌生又有启发的方式思考我的身体和我的身体。在漫长的COVID时代，章鱼一直是一个特别受欢迎的反复出现的角色:从Netflix获得奥斯卡奖的《我的章鱼老师》(2020)到《其他心灵》(Godfrey-Smith 2017)的复兴，其作者现在有了一个虚构的主角Ray……

Working in the Dark: Service and the Path to Return 在黑暗中工作:服务与回归之路

In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content: <ul> <li> Working in the Dark:Service and the Path to Return </li> <li> Suzanne Lye </li> </ul> <blockquote> Ring the bells that still can ringForget your perfect offeringThere is a crack, a crack in everythingThat's how the light gets in. —Leonard Cohen, Anthem </blockquote> when i was asked to write an essay on the theme of "Rupture and Return," my first reactions were a mix of excitement, confusion, anger, curiosity, gratitude, and—finally—hope. I could not get my head around what expectations a title like "Rupture and Return" might mean for someone like me, who has experienced not one but many ruptures over the past few years, which long predate the COVID-19 pandemic. I questioned what people think they might be returning to with eyes newly opened to the difficulties, indignities, and pain many in the academy have long endured. I also questioned whether anyone wants a return to the pre-pandemic status quo. At this point in time, "repair" and "reset" rather than "return" more naturally flow off my tongue after the word "rupture," and I want to propose them as alternatives toward which we might set our sights as we contemplate the idea of return. In this essay, I discuss how I believe we can use service as a form of self-care to make our field a platform on which more people can thrive. I start by explaining why I believe a return is unlikely, undesirable, and impossible. I then share observations on how certain types of individual and collective repair might help us reset our collective trajectory. Finally, using my experiences as a leader and volunteer in service organizations such as the Women's Classical Caucus (WCC), I suggest specific steps for building a practice of service that is personalized, effective, and sustainable, not only for the field but also for us as individuals. [End Page 325] <h2>no turning back</h2> First of all, I think we should abandon the idea that we are able to return to a pre-pandemic world. One reason is that we now live in a world wounded by the collective trauma of the pandemic, with new strains of COVID-19 continuing to surge. Even if this were not the case, desiring a return would be a very conservative stance because it would call for reinstating a status quo that served few, in which even the "winners" in the hierarchy—senior scholars, permanently employed instructors, tenured professors, charismatic administrators, etc.—seemed unhappy and anxious most of the time, transmitting this vibe along with well-intentioned but sometimes ill-suited advice and caveats to those still struggling to get their footing on the ladder.

代替摘要，这里是内容的一个简短的节选:在黑暗中工作:服务和回归之路苏珊娜·莱敲响仍然可以敲响的钟声忘记你完美的奉献每件事都有一个裂缝，一个裂缝，这就是光进入的方式。当我被要求写一篇关于“破裂与回归”主题的文章时，我的第一反应是兴奋、困惑、愤怒、好奇、感激，最后是希望。我无法想象，对于像我这样在过去几年经历了不止一次而是多次破裂的人来说，“破裂与回归”这样的标题可能意味着什么。这些破裂早在COVID-19大流行之前就发生了。我很好奇，当人们重新审视学术界许多人长期忍受的困难、侮辱和痛苦时，他们会怎么想。我还质疑是否有人希望回到大流行前的状态。在这个时间点上，在“破裂”这个词之后，“修复”和“重置”而不是“回归”更自然地从我的舌头上流出，我想把它们作为我们在思考回归的想法时可能会看到的替代方案。在这篇文章中，我讨论了我如何相信我们可以使用服务作为一种自我照顾的形式，使我们的领域成为一个平台，让更多的人可以茁壮成长。我首先解释了为什么我认为回归是不可能的、不受欢迎的、不可能的。然后，我分享了关于某些类型的个人和集体修复如何帮助我们重置我们的集体轨迹的观察。最后，利用我在女性经典核心小组(WCC)等服务组织担任领导者和志愿者的经验，我提出了具体的步骤，以建立个性化、有效和可持续的服务实践，不仅适用于该领域，也适用于我们个人。首先，我认为我们应该放弃那种认为我们能够回到大流行前的世界的想法。原因之一是，我们现在生活在一个受到大流行集体创伤的世界，新型COVID-19病毒继续激增。即使事实并非如此，渴望回归也将是一种非常保守的立场，因为它将要求恢复对少数人有利的现状，在这种现状中，即使是等级制度中的“赢家”——高级学者、永久聘用的教师、终身教授、有魅力的管理者等——在大多数时候似乎也不高兴和焦虑。向那些仍在努力在阶梯上站稳脚跟的人提供善意但有时不合适的建议和警告，同时传递这种氛围。甚至在大流行之前，就有许多关于学术界生活的可怕统计数据和悲伤轶事，我们可能都可以指出，从人文学科的资金减少，教授和学术出版物缺乏多样性，贫瘠的就业市场，边缘化个人晋升的系统性障碍，所有类型的高等教育机构的剥削性招聘政策，无法维持的服务义务增加了我们在经济和情感上不稳定的同事的数量，特别是那些处于职业生涯早期阶段的同事。“刷任务文化”和职业倦怠在各个层面都很猖獗，对我们这个职业的期望很快变得不可持续。简而言之，大流行并没有造成破裂;相反，它照亮了它，创造了一个不断揭示真相的机会。当“一切如常”的日子过去后，我们看到了一直拼命想要填满的漏水的罐子出现了裂缝。此外，我们还看到了那些从未享受过正常生活的人，他们长期生活在不确定和焦虑的状态中，无论是在找工作、保住工作还是做好自己的工作方面。在2020年3月，我们被要求为网络环境重建我们的课程，掌握新技术，成为学生光明和稳定的灯塔，即使他们长期以来的成年计划和梦想，从毕业庆典到出国留学项目到暑期工作，都落空了。与此同时，我们教官被要求保持同样的专业……

I could not get my head around what expectations a title like \"Rupture and Return\" might mean for someone like me, who has experienced not one but many ruptures over the past few years, which long predate the COVID-19 pandemic. I questioned what people think they might be returning to with eyes newly opened to the difficulties, indignities, and pain many in the academy have long endured. I also questioned whether anyone wants a return to the pre-pandemic status quo. At this point in time, \"repair\" and \"reset\" rather than \"return\" more naturally flow off my tongue after the word \"rupture,\" and I want to propose them as alternatives toward which we might set our sights as we contemplate the idea of return. In this essay, I discuss how I believe we can use service as a form of self-care to make our field a platform on which more people can thrive. I start by explaining why I believe a return is unlikely, undesirable, and impossible. I then share observations on how certain types of individual and collective repair might help us reset our collective trajectory. Finally, using my experiences as a leader and volunteer in service organizations such as the Women's Classical Caucus (WCC), I suggest specific steps for building a practice of service that is personalized, effective, and sustainable, not only for the field but also for us as individuals. [End Page 325] <h2>no turning back</h2> First of all, I think we should abandon the idea that we are able to return to a pre-pandemic world. One reason is that we now live in a world wounded by the collective trauma of the pandemic, with new strains of COVID-19 continuing to surge. Even if this were not the case, desiring a return would be a very conservative stance because it would call for reinstating a status quo that served few, in which even the \"winners\" in the hierarchy—senior scholars, permanently employed instructors, tenured professors, charismatic administrators, etc.—seemed unhappy and anxious most of the time, transmitting this vibe along with well-intentioned but sometimes ill-suited advice and caveats to those still struggling to get their footing on the ladder.

abstract:

This article explores three receptions of Sappho by Asian American writers, arguing that Sappho's fragmentation has made her a fellow immigrant in the eyes of these diasporic authors. Divorced from her social and cultural contexts on archaic Lesbos, Sappho signifies primarily as fragmentation itself, the loss of an originary whole. Theresa Hak Kyung Cha uses the corporeal fragmentation of fr. 31 LP in Dictée to interrogate the violence endured by the Korean people throughout the twentieth century, Hoa Nguyen ventriloquizes an always already fragmentary Sappho in "After Sappho," and Vi Khi Nao melds an array of fragmentary discourses in "Sapphở."

本文探讨了亚裔美国作家对萨福的三种接受，认为萨福的支离破碎使她成为这些流散作家眼中的移民同伴。在古老的莱斯沃斯岛，萨福脱离了她的社会和文化背景，主要象征着分裂本身，失去了原始的整体。在《萨福之后》(After Sappho)中，和阮(Hoa Nguyen)用一个本来就支离破碎的萨福做腹语，而维吉奈(Vi Khi Nao)在《萨福》(Sappho)中融合了一系列支离破碎的话语。

What Skills Do Students Need for Upper-Division Latin? 学习高级拉丁语学生需要哪些技能?

abstract:

This article explores the language-proficiency levels required in traditional upper-division university courses in Latin. It introduces a research framework to Classics called "domain analysis" and analyzes upper-division Latin at one university to determine the target functional outcomes for students in lower-division courses. The article finds that traditional upper-division Latin requires philological skills that are not described under widely used descriptions of language proficiency, but that these courses also require a reading proficiency corresponding to "advanced high" in the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages Proficiency Guidelines, as well as a limited degree of listening and pronunciation ability. A lower-division curriculum that integrates active Latin techniques with those drawn from multiliteracies and grammar-translation pedagogies may be best suited to achieving these proficiencies.

本文探讨了高等院校传统拉丁语课程的语言水平要求。它向Classics引入了一种名为“领域分析”的研究框架，并分析了一所大学的高年级拉丁语，以确定低年级课程学生的目标功能结果。文章发现，传统的高级拉丁语对语言能力的要求在广泛使用的语言能力描述中没有描述，但这些课程还要求学生具备与美国外语教学委员会指南中“高级高级”相对应的阅读能力，以及一定程度的听力和发音能力。较低层次的课程，将积极的拉丁语技巧与多元读写和语法翻译教学法相结合，可能最适合达到这些熟练程度。
