SUMMARY:James: A Book Group (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:Uncover the remnants of a forgotten\, hidden time\, and discuss how these remnants linger and influence the present. Can re-imagining the past change how we experience our present? In his latest novel James\, Percival Everett – author\, educator\, and presenter at The Jung Center’s upcoming spring benefit – takes an imaginal step back into the world of Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. As Everett walks back around this classic work of American literature\, we journey into a world that Twain’s innocent and optimistic protagonist could not have imagined. While both are runaways\, James – called “Jim” by Huck Finn – flees a life of slavery. Following James’ path\, Everett explores universal human experiences and invites us to reflect on how we’ve lived through or come into contact with these experiences ourselves: How and why do we change the ways we express ourselves to others\, and what happens when we do so because our survival is at stake? How might the deep meaning of a story change if our perspective changes? What happens when we hear a story that fundamentally alters the sense we’ve made of our world?

SUMMARY:Fiction Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Creating Fiction through Generative Revision – Online Workshop\nEmerging writers are familiar with the experience of a story that starts off strong and is a joy to write\, but later becomes a labor that goes unfinished. This workshop will focus on techniques to deal with this loss of momentum. We have this idea that great work comes to other writers in one neat\, complete package. It’s only through experience that we learn that the best writing is achieved with patience and intentional work through layers of thoughtful\, generative revision. In this eight-week fiction workshop\, we will strategically analyze works of published fiction and workshop our own stories in small groups as we work through a layered drafting schedule to bring to life a fully developed short story that is grounded in inspiration from life.\nAbout the instructor:\nPATRICK STOCKWELL is the author of The Light Here Changes Everything\, winner of the Clay Reynolds Novella Prize. His work can also be found in Gulf Coast\, Glass Mountain\, and elsewhere. He is an Inprint MD Anderson Foundation fellow and PhD candidate in fiction at the University of Houston and holds an MFA from New Mexico State University.

SUMMARY:Shakespeare in Italy
DESCRIPTION:As far as we know\, William Shakespeare never traveled to Italy. But the culture of Italy fascinated him. The dramatic action for one-third of all his plays takes place within an Italian setting\, either ancient or contemporary.\nFrom the lovelorn and feud-vexed streets of Romeo and Juliet’s Verona and the ancient Roman forum in which Julius Caesar was assassinated\, to the frothy mix of sex\, money\, and intrigue of Shylock and Othello’s Venice\, Shakespeare’s fascination with Italy inspired his work as a playwright. His Italian settings are so crucial to his plots that the locations themselves seem to have become characters in their own right. We ourselves will take inspiration from Shakespeare’s fascination with Italy\, at that time the acknowledged cultural center of the western world. By studying his plays\, we can expand our own horizons and our own perspectives\, while learning about the context within which their action occurs. Italy beats at the heart of Shakespeare’s poetic and dramatic imagination.\nIn this course\, we will read and discuss several of these Italian plays\, watch clips from film adaptations of these plays to see modern variations on the action\, and conclude with a close reading of Shakespeare’s finest play of all\, The Tempest—which is set on an unknown island in the Mediterranean where some Machiavellian Italians from Milan and Naples are stranded along with Prospero\, who is the most accomplished of all the characters who people the world (or Globe!) created by Shakespeare’s plays.\nSchedule\nMonday\, September 23\, 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.\nMonday\, September 30\, 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.\nMonday\, October 7\, 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.\nMonday\, October 14\, 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.\nTickets\n$125 ICCC Members | $150 General Admission\nMeet Your Instructor\nDr. Dustin Gish is a Professor of Humanities and Political Philosophy in the Honors College at the University of Houston\, where he has taught courses in political theory\, philosophy\, and literature since 2014. He received his interdisciplinary Ph.D. from the Institute of Philosophic Studies at the University of Dallas\, and his M.A. in Liberal Education from St. John’s College (SF).\nFor a decade\, Dr. Gish lived in Rome\, Italy\, and taught courses there at two American universities focused on ancient Roman civilization as well as on the art\, history\, and philosophy of the Italian Renaissance. He has published extensively on the plays of Shakespeare\, Thomas Jefferson and the American Founding\, Xenophon’s Socrates\, and the visual rhetoric of Italian civic republicanism.

SUMMARY:Searching for Belonging: Being Jewish and Latina/o/x in Postwar America
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores the histories and experiences of Latin American Jewish immigrants in the United States. Comparing two cities—Miami and Houston—Dr. Mark Goldberg will examine what it has meant to belong to two ethnic communities as immigrants in the late 20th century. In both places\, Jewish Latina/o/xs built tight-knit\, vibrant communities where they could embrace both their Jewish and Latin American heritage. Together\, these stories enrich our understanding of Jewish\, Latinx\, and American history.\nThis event is free and open to the public\, but registration is required.\nHolocaust Museum Houston would like to thank our Partner Sponsors\, Amigos Meat Distributors\, LP\, and Bank of Texas for generously supporting our Latinx Heritage Month programs.
