I acknowledge that the land on which I live and work is stolen land. That the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation and the Darug People of the Darug Nation have never ceded their sovereignty on these lands, and that treaties are yet to be negotiated. I additionally acknowledge the Gadigal People's and the Darug People's living culture, knowledge and struggle in this region. I pledge my ongoing solidarity with the traditional owners, and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders peoples, in their struggle for recognition of sovereignty, historical truths and justice. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Its principal purpose is the advancement of knowledge through teaching and research, which in turn brings enormous public benefit. The Macquarie University Research Centre for Agency, Values, and Ethics (CAVE) Annual Public Lecture by Professor Adrienne Stone, ?Academic Freedom and Democracy? will take a close look at a second rationale for academic freedom that lies in the connections between academic freedom and democracy. It will be argued that universities play an important role in support for democracy as independent sources of information and knowledge. In doing so, they are a valuable democratic resource for all citizens ? and not just for the members of a university community. In turn, however, universities themselves require a commitment to democratic government in a full sense. That is, universities thrive in societies that are truly committed to free academic inquiry, that are prepared to wear the discomfort that challenging independent thinkers can bring. As a result, academic freedom has a constitutional dimension and scholars should conceive of themselves and their universities as part of the infrastructure of democracy. A zoom link will be emailed to you upon registration via the link below. https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/6qYhCgZ0N1iA2Pl7BiNs8W8?domain=event.mq.edu.au Any questions on the event?

Message-ID: We?re writing to announce the launch of the Eastern Hemisphere Language & Metaphysics Network. The key objectives of the network are: ? To promote collaboration and strengthen connections between scholars and institutions in the Asia-Australasia region (broadly construed to include Russia, West and South Asia, and Oceania), with an emphasis on research, activities, and initiatives focused on issues concerning language or metaphysics. ? To promote interaction and exchange of ideas between the language and metaphysics communities in Asia-Australasia and other parts of the world. Our website, which contains basic information about the network, is available here: www.ehlm.org The initial plan for the network is to organize and host a series of regular online meetings, with meetings taking place every 2-3 months. The network can also help promote events hosted by particular institutions. Later, depending on the level of interest and participation (and funding and pandemics?), the network may host an annual or bi-annual workshop or conference. The schedule for the inaugural meeting is included at the end of this message.

The lecture is entitled, ?The Idea of Critical Antiquities: Towards a Manifesto,? and will be delivered by Ben Brown (Classics and Ancient History, University of Sydney) and Tristan Bradshaw (School of Liberal Arts, University of Wollongong). Over the last two years, Ben and I have managed to gather some excellent colleagues from around the world into the network, especially through the Critical Antiquities Workshop. In that forum, we have seen the way that the conjunction of ancient traditions and contemporary critical theories stimulates contemporary research in a number of different and exciting ways. But Ben and I wish to open 2022 with a public statement that elaborates on, and hopefully clarifies, what ?critical antiquities? means to the two of us. We are also thrilled to announce that Professor Brooke Holmes (Classics and Comp Lit, Princeton University) and Professor Paul North (German, Yale University) will serve as respondents and Professor Julia Kindt (Classics and Ancient History, University of Sydney) will moderate the event. The lecture will be held on Zoom on Thursday, February 24 10am-12 noon (Sydney time). For Evanston/ Chicago, that translates to Wednesday 23 Feb, 5pm-7pm. To register, please sign up for the Critical Antiquities mailing list here. If you have already signed up, you will receive the Zoom link and you need not sign up again. We hope to see you there.
