BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID:-//TERMINALFOUR//SITEMANAGER V7.3//EN VERSION:2.0 BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20190404T170000 LOCATION:Braamfontein Campus East Seminar Room, Humanities Graduate Centre DESCRIPTION:Centre for Indian Studies invites you to this lecture as part of the 3rd Thinking from the Global South Distinguished Lectures. Archives typically do not mention contiguous literary subjects working in different traditions and languages, promoting a view of separate life-worlds despite noticing "curious" similarities. A spatial approach that actively looks for the "multiplicity of stories and trajectories" (Massey) and is attentive to the dialogism of utterances (Bakhtin), by contrast, can go a long way into explaining the utterances themselves and who they are in silent dialogue with. This lecture will present two case studies from North India: the "silent dialogue" between Sufis and Sants (devotional poet saints), and an anthology of modern writing on the city of Allahabad.
