Lessing Distinguished Professor of History and Poetics, Rutgers University. Prof. Koven will be presenting a chapter of his current book project, titled: “Educating Conscience in Mid-Nineteenth Century British India.“ Dr. Zachary Leonard, recent graduate of the Department of History and current Teaching Fellow in the Social Sciences, will be providing comment.

 

Please note that this workshop will meet on Friday, February 21 from 4:30-6:00 PM in Rosenwald Hall, Room 405.

Prof. Koven’s paper is available on the TAMEW Canvas site, as well as on our website, http://cas.uchicago.edu/workshops/transnationaleurope/, under the heading “Current Paper” (Password: HopeFranklin). Should you have any trouble accessing the paper, please contact us at either kimmey@uchicago.edu or gvaldespino@uchicago.edu.

 

Following the workshop and reception, Prof. Leora Auslander has kindly offered to host a dinner for Prof. Koven at her home. If you would like to join, please RSVP with either Greg or myself as soon as possible. Space is limited, and can only be guaranteed on a first-come basis.

We look forward to seeing you next week!
