Dance-Share

On Thursday, December 10th from 4:30-5:15 p.m., in Roberts Theatre, dance students from choreography and beginning modern classes will share some of the dances and performing skills they learned in their classes. Also featured will be Miriam Dean and Molly Davis, presenting Irish step dancing. This event will be informal. Come join us. For more information, contact Teresa [Heiland].

GSO Concert This Friday

This Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. in the Harris Center concert hall, the Grinnell Symphony Orchestra will perform Aaron Copland's Outdoor Overture and Antonin Dvorak's New World Symphony. In a sense, this will be an all-American program: Copland, during his lifetime, was often called "the dean of American composers", and Dvorak, while living in the "New World," wrote the New World about the "New World."

We very much regret to announce that, contrary to rumor, we will not be handing out miniature Statues of Liberty at the end of the concert. But come anyway; this program really ain't too shabby.

Javanese Music and Dance Concert this Thursday

The Grinnell College Javanese Music and Dance Ensemble will present its Fall concert this Thursday, December 10, at 4:30 p.m. in South Lounge. Featured on the program will be two dances. Unsur Gagah is a training dance through which students learn the movement vocabulary (unsur) for the strong male style (gagah) as practiced in the court city of Yogyakarta, Java. Performing this dance will be Hormuz Batliboi, Elizabeth Goettert, Theresa Hahn, Rebecca Rush, Megan Delphia Shanks, Jaime Ward, and Hisako Watanabe. Gambiranom is a popular entertainment dance from the court city of Surakarta. It is a flamboyant dance in the refined male
(alusan) style and will be performed by Susannah Carroll, Martha Klovstad, Alison Novak, Allison Shaw, Angela Stone, and Emily Tettelbaum. The 21-member gamelan ensemble will provide musical accompaniment for the dancers and, in addition, will perform several concert pieces. Please join us for this hour-long dose of tropical sounds and movements. The program is presented by the Department of Music and the ensemble is co-directed by Roger Vetter and Valerie Mau Vetter.

Smekhov's 20th c. Russian Theatre Class: Chekhov's Marriage Proposal and scenes from Gogol's Inspector General

This Thursday, Dec. 10, at 8 p.m. in the Flanagan Studio Theatre, students in visiting Heath Professor Venia Smekhov's 20th Century Russian Theatre Acting and Directing will present an end-of-the semester "tea and cookies" performance of Chekhov's comic one-act A Marriage Proposal and scenes from the greatest Russian comedy, Gogol's Inspector General. The public is invited to attend this one-time-only presentation, the final exercise of Theatre 295, a studio course based on "teaching through acting" the major developments of 20th century Russian theatre, including Stanislavski's actor-training techniques developed for the production of Chekhov's plays at the Moscow Art Theatre, the theatricalism of Meyerhold, and more recent performance styles of Vahktangov and Lyubimov.

"20th c. Russian Theatre" students include Emily Austin, Richele Brafford, Chris Brewster, Katrina Bugaj, Mandy Emory, Meg Gagne, Jo Hagerty, Tim Kerber, Jen Metcalf, Sev Oman, Donovan Sherman, Elizabeth Taylor, Kristina Valada-Viars.

Venia Smekhov, who shares the visiting Heath Professorship this fall with his wife Galina Aksenova (film and theatre history) in the Russian department, is an internationally recognized theatre artist and educator, with numerous stage and film acting credits, currently directing opera and theatre in U.S. and European venues. A graduate of the Theatre Institute of Vahktangov, Venia has been since 1964 a leading actor at the Taganka Theatre in Moscow, where he has served also as director and script writer. His most famous Taganka roles have been Claudius in Lyubimov's, 1974 Hamlet, and Woland (the Devil) in the Taganka's adaptation of Bulgakov's, The Master and Margarita; he's played more than 40 stage roles and 20 in film and television. His rise to national popularity came with his film performance in, The Three Musketeers, and his musical version of, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. He has published five books, five plays and more than 300 articles on theatre. He is the writer and producer of an ongoing miniseries being shown in Russia called "A Theatre of My Memory," of which 23 segments have been filmed. Since 1980, Venia has become an international performer and director, involved in productions in Germany, Israel, Czechoslovakia and the U.S. In 1995 he directed, The Naked King, an adaptation of Hans Christian Anderson's, The Emperor's New Clothes, at Chicago's Lookingglass Theatre. In 1996 he directed Isaac Babel's, Sundown, for the Grinnell Sesquicentennial international symposium on Odessa. He has directed over thirty theatre, opera and television productions including Flaubert's, Sentimental Education in Russia; Prokofiev's opera, The Love for Three Oranges, and Donizetti's, Don Pasquale, in Germany; and Bulgakov's, Don Quixote, and his own, Ali Baba, in Israel. In 1996 he directed Wolf-Ferrari's, Il Campiello, in Munich; in 1998 Tchaikovsky's, Queen of Spades, at Prague's National Theatre; and upcoming in 1999 Verdi's, Falstaff, at Lubeck. He'll return to the U.S. in the fall of 1999 to direct Gogol's, Inspector General, and Erdman's Suicide.

Minority Scholars-in-Residence Short Course Offerings, Spring 1999

Philosophy Department: A three-week short course, PHI 295.01: SpTp: Swimming Against the Tide of the Mainstream: the `Crits', Critical Race Theory, and Dworkin, will be taught by visiting scholar, Bernard Jackson doctoral candidate in philosophy from the University of Iowa. It will be taught in Steiner 306 (Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 11:00 11:50 a.m.), beginning Monday, April 12 and
ending Friday, April 30. Students will receive one or two credits for this short course.

Modern philosophers have been especially concerned to endorse the rule of law. They see it as essential for the preservation of the central value of modern society: individual liberty. Restraining power by law makes it possible for all to enjoy equal and extensive individual liberty. Even though figures in the history of modern philosophy (e.g., Hobbes, Austin) have found fault with this idea(l), the strongest challenge to the rule of law may come from a relatively recent movement in legal thinking, Critical Legal Studies. Its proponents—often called "crits"—argue that contemporary society is riddled by illegitimate hierarchies of power. Such hierarchies are illegitimate if that power cannot be justified, that is, if it is a matter of might, not right. One important offshoot of CLS is called "Critical Race Theory". It examines the role of law in both combating and perpetuating the oppression of African Americans by racism, and it holds that some legal reforms ostensibly aimed at combating racism have actually helped perpetuate it. The objective of the present course is three-fold. Assigned readings will explore and critically analyze legal doctrines which have perpetuated the above-mentioned legal reforms discussed by critical race theorists, as well as the relationship between the crits and these theorists. Our final objective is an examination and analysis of criticisms of these two movements' doctrines, with special emphasis on those leveled by Ronald Dworkin. This class should be of special interest to advanced philosophy, sociology, anthropology, economics, history and political science majors. Prerequisite: None. Students are required to complete a paper for the 2-credit section of this course. The S/D/F and audit options can be chosen. Short courses must be added by the end of the first class day and dropped by the end of the second class day. S/D/F and audit options must be declared by the end of the second class day. Please contact Professor Alan Schrift if you have questions about this course (x3161, Steiner 311).
