SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Blasphemy and the State in Pakistan
DESCRIPTION:Blasphemy is one of the most contentious issues in contemporary Pakistan. Founded as a safe homeland for Muslims\, the country has wrestled with the role of Islam in the state since its inception.\nWhile the overwhelming majority of the population are Muslim\, they are far from homogenous in sectarian affiliation or adherence to particular doctrinal positions within Islam. Prior to the Islamisation programme under Zia ul Haq in the 1980s\, the laws on blasphemy were largely inherited from colonial era regulations that focussed on protecting religious property. Zia’s regime introduced the idea that insult to core ideas of Islam might also legitimately be regulated by the state. The resulting increase in accusations and prosecutions of blasphemy cases has exacerbated divisions in the country and exposed minority communities to serious risk of prosecution. Arguably\, rather than control blasphemy\, state legislation has created a mechanism for harassment. This has hit minority communities\, especially non-Muslims\, particularly hard\, as the recent high profile Asia Bibi case illustrates so dramatically. \nSpeaker:\nDr Yaqoob Khan Bangash is a historian of Modern South Asia. His current research interests are in the emergence of Pakistan as a post-colonial state\, with broader interests in decolonisation\, modern state formation\, formation of identities\, and the emergence of ethnic and identity based conflicts. His DPhil thesis was on the accession and integration of the princely states in Pakistan\, which has been published by Oxford University Press as A Princely Affair: Accession and Integration of Princely States in Pakistan\, 1947–55. He is currently working on a monograph on the imagination of Pakistan as a country after its creation\, using the debates of the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan (1947–56) as the basic primary material. Dr Bangash is also working towards a history of Forman Christian College\, Lahore. He has published in South Asia Research and the Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History\, and has written articles for two edited volumes. He also regularly writes for The News\, The Express Tribune and other publications. In 2018\, he was a British Academy Visiting Fellow at Royal Holloway\, University of London\, and presently is the 2019 Chevening Fellow at the Oxford Centre of Islamic Studies. \nThis event is free but booking is essential.

SUMMARY:KQ Private View: Edvard Munch at the British Museum
DESCRIPTION:Knowledge Quarter staff and friends are welcome to join our private breakfast view of Edvard Munch: Love and Angst at the British Museum. Enjoy free out-of-hours access to the exhibition in the company of lovely\, like-minded individuals living and working in the KQ.\nYou may know ‘The Scream’ but do you know who painted it? Meet Edvard Munch\, Norway’s answer to Vincent van Gogh\, as the British Museum showcases the largest exhibition of his prints in the UK for 45 years (including ‘The Scream’ lithograph). \n“We do not want pretty pictures to be hung on drawing-room walls. We want … an art that arrests and engages. An art of one’s innermost heart.” – Edvard Munch \n‘The Scream’ is a deeply personal response to Munch’s upbringing and experiences as a young artist – he rejected his strict Lutheran upbringing to pursue an unconventional lifestyle. He travelled across Europe\, drawing artistic inspiration from the bohemian circles he encountered and his passionate love affairs. Munch’s work articulated his experiences of life in a rapidly changing Europe\, that was to be shattered by the first global industrialised conflict. \nIn this collaborative exhibition with the Munch Museum in Oslo\, discover how he mastered the art of printmaking and explore his remarkable body of work. Munch’s innovative techniques\, bold use of colour and dark subject matter resonated with shifting attitudes – and mark him out as one of the first truly ‘modern’ artists. \nBook your place here \n  \nABOUT KQ PRIVATE VIEWS \nStaff and friends of the Knowledge Quarter and its 98 partner organisations get free\, out-of-hours access to some of the best exhibitions in London. \nOur series of exclusive Private Views has opened the doors (before they open to the public) of the British Museum\, The Francis Crick Institute and the Wellcome Collection.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: The Politics of Palestinian Multilingualism
DESCRIPTION:Nancy Hawker will be in conversation with Deborah Cameron on the occasion of the launch of her new book The Politics of Palestinian Multilingualism: Speaking for Citizenship.\nThis event is free but booking is essential. Book as soon as possible. \nAbstract: \nIn the governing institutions of Israel\, Arabic is suppressed. This practice crystallised in the early years of the state. Also\, Arabic-speakers who also speak Hebrew make linguistic choices that result in the avoidance of Arabic in situations where Jewish Israelis are also present. These two elements form the sociolinguistic habitus of the Palestinians and other Arabs in the area controlled by Israel. When speaking Arabic\, to give their propositions authority\, their discursive strategies mobilise multilingual repertoires\, including codeswitching and borrowing\, for rhetoric effect and style.The analysis moves away from scholarship that has been concerned ‘language endangerment’ which has channeled concerns about political problems. The Palestinian multilinguals are performing the aspirations of an emergent middle class elite. On the political stage\, this elite challenges the ethnorepublican political structures of Israel\, as well as ethnonationalist campaigns\, with different inhabitations of citizenship that envisage liberal equality\, dignity and autonomy. Under conditions of late capitalism\, multilingual language skills are re-packaged as marketable resource: this creates value\, but in a contested way\, with ambivalent opportunities. With new evidence from recent and historical political discourse\, this book is about how speakers of an institutionally marginalised language engage with the political system multilingually. \nSpeakers: \nDr Nancy Hawker is a Research Fellow for AKU-ISMC’s Gover​nance Programme. Dr Hawker has a DPhil in Oriental Studies from University of Oxford and an MA in Near and Middle Eastern Studies from SOAS. After publishing Palestinian-Israeli Contact and Linguistic Practices (Routledge\, 2013)\, she took on a Leverhulme Early Career Fellowshipat the Faculty of Oriental Studies at Oxford University. She has previously worked at Amnesty International’s International Secretariat in London. \nProf Deborah Cameron is a sociolinguist who currently holds the Murdoch Chair of Language and Communication in the Faculty of Linguistics at Oxford University. She is the author of numerous books\, including Verbal Hygiene (1995)\, Good To Talk (2000)\, The Myth of Mars and Venus (2007)\, and most recently\, with Sylvia Shaw\, Gender\, Power and Political Speech (2016). She regularly comments on linguistic topics on BBC radio\, and presents research on language and gender for a general audience through her blog Language: A Feminist Guide.
