Bill Taubman, Amherst College, Department of Political Science

Many conditions and circumstances (economic, political, social, international) shaped the fates of Nikita Khrushchev and Mikhail Gorbachev, and that of their country, but so did both leaders’ personalities.

OCTOBER 2

Joseph Stalin: The Lifecycle of a Revolutionary and the Fate of Revolution

Anne O’Donnell, NYU History Department

This lecture will explore Joseph Stalin’s rise from seminary student in Georgia to Generalissimo of a global superpower in the context of the communist Revolution that brought him to such great heights. From building socialism, the Great Terror to the Great Fatherland War, how did Stalin come to personify that Revolution, and what happened to it after he was gone?

This lecture is being presented in memory of Anne and Frank Ruggieri, by Gerry Ruggieri DiPersia.

Robert Vitalis, Professor of Political Science, University of Pennsylvania

OCTOBER 10Algeria’s Long Transition? The Struggle for Accountable Government in a Wide-Awake Petro State

Deborah Harrold, Senior Lecturer in Political Science, University of Pennsylvania

Since the late 20th century, Algerians have lived through civil war and political uncertainty. While Algeria missed the Arab uprisings of 2011, waves of demonstrations contributed to the resignation of an ailing president who many believed was a thin front for military rule. Extensive oil and gas resources have enabled Algerian governments to insulate themselves from political pressure, but public focus on the military is high. An educated population in

contact with the world, an under-performing economy, a civil society of diverse views, a lively press – surely Algeria will be able to make a transition to more representative and accountable government? This talk will examine the possibilities and tensions in Algeria today.

NOVEMBER 7The Iranian Nuclear Issue: A View from History

John Ghazvinian, Associate Director, Middle East Center, University of Pennsylvania

As tensions between the United States and Iran continue to escalate, the controversy about the Iranian nuclear program is frequently cited as a central area of disagreement between the two countries. But is this, in fact, the core of the issue? Historian John Ghazvinian explores the broader story of Iran’s nuclear program, and discusses the history of US-Iran relations — situating the nuclear disagreement within the context of 40 years of US-Iran tensions.

DECEMBER 5Women in Islamic History: The Warrior, The Princess and the Mystic

Kaley Keener, Arabic Language Lecturer, University of Pennsylvania

The Arabo-Islamic empire is known for its many contributions to diverse fields such as philosophy, medicine, literature, and the sciences, yet the role that women played in these fields, as well as their agency in the greater medieval context, remains largely underrepresented and under-researched. By drawing on three roles occupied by Arabo-Islamic women: the Warrior, the Princess, and the Mystic, Keener will highlight the ways in which women participated in society throughout the medieval period, bearing broader implications for the role of the modern Arabo-Islamic woman

The Center is proud to partner with the University of Pennsylvania Middle East Center to bring you this series.

TALES AND TRUTHS: DEFINING ARTISTS OF THE EARLY REPUBLIC

SEPTEMBER 17

Benjamin West

West’s career set the stage for American artists to find international visibility, defining ideas about the new country’s values on religion, education and aesthetics. But West’s works also codified mythologies around the original inhabitants of these lands that laid the groundwork for centuries of prejudice.

SEPTEMBER 24

Charles Willson Peale

Peale was a painter, scientist, soldier, tinkerer and politician. His long and varied career, from raising troops for the War of Independence to excavating the first mastodon skeleton for public audiences, illuminated early decisions about government policy, natural history, and civic engagement.

OCTOBER 15

John Lewis Krimmel

Krimmel’s paintings show the daily adventures of a burgeoning American citizenry, including weddings, holidays, and even election days. He was also the first artist to depict free slaves as part of American society, using distortions in physiognomies to identify his African American subjects.

OCTOBER 22

Thomas Birch

Birch’s landscapes, including his much reproduced image of Philadelphia’s engineering marvel, the Water Works, ushered in Philadelphia’s reputation as a modern city and made it possible for Americans to imagine healthy, clean American cities.

This lecture is dedicated to Bill Lyons. William (Bill) Lyons was a lifelong resident of Camden County. He graduated from Villanova University with a Bachelor of Science in Education/History and received a Masters of Education from Rutgers University. Bill’s lifelong interest in history was boundless. As a child he collected World War II artifacts. As a young adult he shared his enthusiasm by teaching history and social studies, moderated student government and the Jerseyman’s Club, and sponsored trips for inner-city students to

Williamsburg, Gettysburg and the New York World’s Fair. He had a 30+ year commitment (1963 - 1995), to the kids in Camden during the civil rights era. As an administrator, his passion for history continued through trusteeship in the Camden County Historical Society. Bill’s love of teaching and learning lives on with the establishment of the Camden County College Foundation’s William J. Lyons Jr. Memorial Fund.

OCTOBER 29

Samuel F.B. Morse

Trained during the War of 1812, Morse’s paintings are often read as an allegory of debates around both religion and Federalism, informed by his outspoken anti-immigration beliefs.

THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WOMEN’S SUFFRAGE AMENDMENTThis almost 100 year struggle to obtain women’s right to vote began in the 1820s and finally culminated in the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution August 26, 1920. It enfranchised all American women and recognized that they deserved all of the rights and responsibilities of citizenship granted to men.

Experience the intense opposition to the movement and the divisions within in it. Recognize the leadership of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Susan B. Anthony, Carrie Chapman and especially Alice Paul of Mt. Laurel New Jersey. Learn how a mother’s plea to her legislator son led to its passage in Tennesee, securing the final state approval necessary for its ratification.
