SUMMARY:How Archaeologists Study the People of the Gospels
DESCRIPTION:In Person (Royce 306) or on Zoom\nRegister here \nHow do archaeologists unearth the daily life of people from Jesus’s time? \nContrary to popular belief\, archaeology of first-century Roman Galilee is not about illustrating or proving the gospels\, drawing timelines\, or hunting treasure. Rather\, it is about understanding the lives of people\, just like us\, who lived in the time of Jesus. How do we conceive of Jesus and his mission as part of a larger world? How did different groups in Roman Galilee understand their identities and values? How do we interpret material culture in conjunction with textual evidence from the gospels? On a more basic level\, how do we know where and how to dig? \nCo-sponsored by the Kershaw Chair of Ancient Eastern Mediterranean Studies  \nJames Riley Strange teaches how to address these problems in his book Excavating the Land of Jesus. Drawing on professional experience as a scientific archaeologist in Israel\, Strange explains current methodology for ground surveying\, excavating evidence\, and interpreting data. James Strange received the Charles Jackson Granade and Elizabeth Donald Granade Chair in New Testament in the fall of 2017. He is a 2015 recipient of the Dean’s Award for Research\, Howard College of Arts and Sciences\, and a member of Phi Kappa Phi honor society. Strange is Director of the Shikhin Excavation Project in Israel and researches archaeology of Palestine in the Hellenistic through Byzantine periods\, early Christianity and post-biblical Judaisms. He teaches courses in New Testament\, ancient Greco-Roman Religions\, and the archaeology of Palestine.

SUMMARY:Colonial Encounters:  Sor Juana\, Guaman Poma\, and the Birth of the Brown Church
DESCRIPTION:In person (Kaplan 365)\n \nThis guest lecture examines the little known multicultural religious protests to the Spanish Conquest of colonial Latin America.  Such protests began in 1511 under the guidance of Dominican friar Antonio de Montesinos and led to “The Great Debate” in which\, for the first time in recorded human history\, an entire nation paused to reflect on the moral injustice of war and colonization.  In the decades and centuries to come\, mestizo\, black\, indigenous\, female\, Spanish\, and Asian voices would arise to challenge the perverted racial and sexist logic of the Spanish colonial project. This talk further examines the lives and voices of three of these diverse leaders—Garcilaso de la Vega el Inca\, Guaman Poma de Ayala\, and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz.  Together\, these multicultural protests gave birth to the “Brown Church” and a 500 year tradition of Christian social justice in Latin America. \nRobert Chao Romero is an associate professor in the Chávez Department of Chicana/o Studies and Central America Studies.  Romero is the author of “Brown Church: Five Centuries of Latina/o Social Justice\, Theology\, and Identity\,” and co-author of “Christianity and Critical Race Theory” and “God’s Resistance: Mobilizing Faith to Defend Immigrants.”  Romero is also an ordained minister and faith rooted community organizer. \n[gravityform id=”147″ title=”true” description=”true”]
