SUMMARY:Canada Talks - Unerasing Ourselves: St. Catharines\, Canadian Literature\, and the Past
DESCRIPTION:The Centre for Canadian Studies in partnership with the St. Catharines Public Library presents their third Canada Talks event featuring Professor Gregory Betts. \n“Unerasing Ourselves: St. Catharines\, Canadian Literature\, and the Past”\nWednesday February 25 starting at 6:15 p.m.\nCentral Library\, Mills Room\, Downtown St. Catharines \nThis talk attends to the troubling question: what becomes of the nation when we decolonize\, when we really take our conflicts head on? \nBy looking at the history and counter-history of St. Catharines\, we can start to imagine a strategy of reading Canada through its conflicts\, without erasing any\, while highlighting the various efforts to erase evidence of conflict. “Unerasing Ourselves” traces out a series of remarkable\, improbable\, and fascinating links between such authors as Frederick Douglas\, John Richardson\, Thomas D’Arcy McGee\, and Harriet Tubman\, amongst others. Provocatively\, I argue that we must reconsider erasure as a central dynamic of the Canadian Social contract. For the sake of the future\, it is time to think more consciously of the messy conflicts shaping this land. \nLight refreshments served | All welcome

SUMMARY:"Like It Or Not" March Break Performance
DESCRIPTION:This funny and heartwarming play focuses on characters Zoey and Leah\, who have been best friends for as long as they can remember. They still wear the friendship bracelets they made together at summer camp when they were seven! Now that they’re in grade six\, things are beginning to change between them. Zoey is an athlete who loves soccer more than anything. Meanwhile\, Leah is drawn to art\, and especially to fashion\, as her mom teaches her how to sew. Added to this mix\, there’s a new very cool kid at school\, Makayla\, who is also into fashion\, and who Leah wants to be like. As Leah begins to spend more time with Makayla and her popular crowd\, Zoey feels like she’s losing her friend. And maybe Leah is losing herself\, too\, when she is given a smartphone\, and starts to focus more and more on how many likes she is getting on social media. \nHelping Zoey and Leah to navigate through these challenges are: Coach Dana\, who has lots of inspirational advice about soccer and life; Madame LaGrange\, their enthusiastic French teacher (who also sees herself as an artist!); and Zoey’s frazzled Mom who is trying to stay on top of everything while taking care of newborn twins. \nIdeal for ages 8-12 and their families! \nIncludes interactive bracelet making activity after the show!

SUMMARY:MARS Lecture Series Event - Policing Sex and Gender in Renaissance Florence
DESCRIPTION:Policing Sex and Gender in Renaissance Florence featuring Professor Colin Rose \nEarly modern Florence was a bustling city of 50\,000 souls\, including high numbers of unmarried young men and relatively young widows. Many of these widows made their way into and through a network of civic and religious institutions designed to support and control them in a deeply patriarchal society; others joined a legal and regulated sex trade to attempt to provide for themselves and their families outside institutional orbits. Policing the latter to protect the former from the influence of the latter was critical to a program of moral reform imposed upon Florence by its second Duke\, Cosimo I. Responsibility for the policing of Florentine sex work lay with the Ufficiali dell’Onestà\, the Officers of Decency. This paper analyzes 30 years of sentences levelled by these men against women sex workers\, their clients\, and others embroiled in conflicts with them. By mapping these sentences and the incidents that provoked them against the religious and socioeconomic landscape of the early modern city\, we better understand how moral reform\, public order and patriarchal authority were spatially imposed upon the men and women of Renaissance Florence. \nAll Welcome\, light refreshments served.
