Food for Thought: A new Center for Advanced Study public events series featuring presentations of research and creative projects by recent CAS Associates and Fellows.
This informal series includes talks that were canceled after campus shut down in Spring 2020. We are celebrating the return to intellectually and spiritually invigorating in-person events by showcasing the work of some of our most productive and creative faculty. You are invited to drop in when you can and enjoy a bite to eat while you learn about the exciting projects undertaken by our faculty. A brunch buffet will be provided.
11:00am, Christina Bashford, Music and the People: Violins in British Working-Class Life, 1870-1930
Noon, Mauro Nobili, The Tārikh al-Fattash and the Making of an Islamic State in West Africa
