CLASSICS AND THE GRAMMAR OF LOSS IN THE BLACK FEMINIST TRADITION
Classics and the Grammar of Loss in the Black Feminist Tradition, hosted by Classical Studies Program at University of Penn, will be held on Tuesday, November 15, 2022, from 5:00 pm until 6:00 pm at Widner Hall in the Penn Museum, 3260 South Street, Philadelphia, 19104.
In the second of her Penn Public Lectures on Classical Antiquity and the Contemporary World, Emily Greenwood, Professor of Classics and Comparative Literature at Harvard University, will analyze the intricate grammar of loss in the writings of Anna Julia Cooper and Mary Church Terrell. Cooper and Terrell both took degrees in Classics and subsequently taught Latin: the lecture will suggest that close attention to their frequent use of conditionals has much to teach us about the need for sharper epistemological recovery in inventorying African American loss, and much to teach us about the scope of how Cooper and Terrell imagined Black womanist futurity.
