Weissman Global Seminar
 Death and Taxes: The Depletion of a Natural Resource Caused by Europeans in the American Continent
 

Please join us for the next Weissman Global Seminar featuring

Dean Aldemaro Romero Jr., Weissman School of Arts and Sciences

Interdisciplinary approaches have been used not only to interpret past patterns of natural resource utilization but also to provide useful tools for conservation biology and resource management.  I report the depletion of the pearl oyster (Pinctada imbricata) beds off the coasts of the island of Cubagua, Venezuela, in the sixteenth century and the replacement of the oyster by the turkey-wind mussel (Arca zebra).  I used historical tax data to conclude that the rapid depletion of this resource was the result not only of overexploitation in a short period of time but also the ecology of the place used by humans to carry out such activity. Under conditions of ecological stress generated by overexploitation, the turkey-wing mussel outcompeted the pearl oyster, thus preventing its recovery.   Finally, I propose that the exploitation of the pearl oyster beds directly influenced the demographic, social, and cultural conditions of the indigenous human population in the Caribbean and, to a certain extent, Africa.

Aldemaro Romero Jr. is the Weissman Dean of Arts and Sciences at Baruch College in New York.  He received his bachelor’s degree in Biology from the University of Barcelona, Spain and his Ph.D. in Biology from the University of Miami, Florida. He has published more than 1,000 pieces including more than 20 books and monographs.  His academic interests range from environmental to evolutionary biology, to history and philosophy of science, to science communication and higher education. He has been awarded numerous grants as well as prizes for his research and science communication work.

In Sonnambula's program, "Women's Voices," the ensemble presents works by, and inspired by Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre (1665-1729). Jacquet was a child prodigy, astonishing adults - including King Louis XIV - with her ability to compose and improvise at the keyboard. In addition to keyboard pieces, she composed sonatas, songs, cantatas, and even an opera, the first by a woman to be performed in Paris.  

"My goal is to show Jacquet in context, rather than as rogue female composer," says Sonnambula artistic director and viol Elizabeth Weinfield, "to reveal how she was influential to her contemporaries, rather than the other way around, which is so often the narrative. We know she was a very active teacher in Paris, and influence is felt strongly in works by the more well-known male composers." Sonnambula's program features music by Jacquet de La Guerre juxtaposed with works from her contemporaries, including  Jean-Baptiste Lully, Jean-Philippe Rameau, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, and Henri Dumont.

Praised as "superb" by The New Yorker, Sonnambula is a Renaissance ensemble that brings to light unknown music for various combinations of early instruments with the lush sound of the viol at the core.  Sonnambula has performed at The Frick Collection, Alice Tully Hall, among other venues, and at Princeton University, where they are working at the Princeton Sound Kitchen lab to commission new work for old instruments.

The Heart of Kyogen 2017

September 29, 2017  7PM

​BUY TICKETS

The acclaimed Ohkura School Kyogen actors Noriyoshi Ohkura and Daijiro Zenchiku are returning to New York!

Having delighted audiences with their performances and laughter in 2016, this year Mr. Ohkura and Mr. Zenchiku will perform the Kyogen classics, “SHIMIZU” (Spring Water) and “KAGYU” (Snail).

“SHIMIZU” is about a servant who cannot be bothered to get the water needed for a tea ceremony and makes up a story about a demon appearing at the spring...

“SNAIL” tells the improbable events that ensue when a servant agrees to bring back a snail that is an elixir of long life. The servant has no idea what a snail is and assumes a sleeping priest he encounters is the snail he is seeking...

Mr. Ohkura and Mr. Zenchiku will preface the performances with a lecture on the history of Kyogen and demonstrations of Kyogen acting techniques, stage effects, and sound use, making the performance readily accessible to everyone. (The program will be presented in Japanese with English supertitles.)

Kyogen is traditional Japanese comic theater. Kyogen dates back to the 14th century and was designated a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2001.

This event is sponsored by the Noh Society, a New York based nonprofit organization promoting Japanese arts and culture, and is supported by the Japanese Chamber of Commerce & Industry of New York.

Matuto’s Seductive Philosophical Trip through Brazilian Beats and Southern Roots:

In Brazil, Matuto is slang for Country Boy, but this NYC based group of urbanized virtuosos is emerging as one of the world’s hottest international touring acts.  Recently awarded the title of “American Musical Ambassadors” by the U.S. State Department, Matuto has been hailed as "seductively cross cultural" (Chicago Tribune), and praised as "the height of world music sophistication” (Sun Times).  

Matuto’s songs can sway hips just as easily as spark insights.  On stage, the instruments swirl together, bobbing in and out, whirling around the tension at the core of Matuto’s music: the push and pull between the Latin syncopations of Brazilian music and the folk traditions of the American South. It’s Bluegrass meets Brazil. It’s an unlikely combination on paper, but on the dance floor, it just feels right.

"As reimagined by Ms. Bauman, this story of exiles in love and in conflict becomes a meditation on immigrants and refugees today…an approach that might well have warmed the heart of that prescient champion of multiculturalism in the arts – Joseph Papp.”- Ben Brantley, The New York Times

65 Million Displaced People. All the World is Arden

Right now, we face the worst refugee crisis since World War II. Yet our national conversation about it is paralyzed – caught between overwhelming statistics of misery on one side, and nativist fear-mongering on the other. As attempts to respond to the crisis descend into acrimony and chaos, perhaps the only way to escape this paralysis is through stories that connect us to its human dimensions.

Arden/Everywhere re-imagines Shakespeare’s “As You Like It” as a story about refugees. It unlocks this beloved comedy’s deepest heartbeat to tell a distinctly contemporary story – one that looks into a world of dislocation and exile to discover resilience, reconciliation and love. Performed by a diverse cast of actors whose origins extend from Russia to Liberia to Sri Lanka to Ohio, it unleashes theater’s unique ability to awaken empathy, locating our common humanity in the face of a seemingly incomprehensible global catastrophe.

"As reimagined by Ms. Bauman, this story of exiles in love and in conflict becomes a meditation on immigrants and refugees today…an approach that might well have warmed the heart of that prescient champion of multiculturalism in the arts – Joseph Papp.”- Ben Brantley, The New York Times

65 Million Displaced People. All the World is Arden

Right now, we face the worst refugee crisis since World War II. Yet our national conversation about it is paralyzed – caught between overwhelming statistics of misery on one side, and nativist fear-mongering on the other. As attempts to respond to the crisis descend into acrimony and chaos, perhaps the only way to escape this paralysis is through stories that connect us to its human dimensions.

Arden/Everywhere re-imagines Shakespeare’s “As You Like It” as a story about refugees. It unlocks this beloved comedy’s deepest heartbeat to tell a distinctly contemporary story – one that looks into a world of dislocation and exile to discover resilience, reconciliation and love. Performed by a diverse cast of actors whose origins extend from Russia to Liberia to Sri Lanka to Ohio, it unleashes theater’s unique ability to awaken empathy, locating our common humanity in the face of a seemingly incomprehensible global catastrophe.
