Saturday, March 20, 2004 Continuing Education Seminar This year's seminar will be held Saturday, March 20, 2004 from 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM at Coffman Memorial Union on the Minneapolis Campus of the University of Minnesota. The title of this year's seminar is "Cultures of Violence and Peace and the Resurgence of Militant Nationalism." Most national communities are imagined as having emerged out of the sacralized violence of the original "patriots" who established the geographical and political-cultural borders of the new state, the "founding fathers" who brought the nation-state to life. With special attention to the break up of old empires and the emergence of new nationalisms since the Cold War, this seminar will examine the role that violence has long played and still plays in nation-states including contemporary America. Seminar Faculty Don Pease, Professor of English, Avalon Foundation Chair of the Humanities, Chair of the Dartmouth Liberal Studies Program and winner of the 1981 Distinguished Teaching Award at Dartmouth, is an authority on nineteenth and twentieth-century American literature and literary theory. Ron Edsforth is Visiting Professor of History and War and Peace Studies. He has been teaching at Dartmouth since 1993. Ron received his BA from Georgetown University (1970), and MA (1975) and PhD (1982) from Michigan State University. To make a reservation print out and mail the reservation form or fill out the online form. The deadline for our receipt of your reservation form and tuition payment is Wednesday, March 17, 2004. Tuition is $30 per person, except $20 for a member of the classes of 1994-2003 and for a guest of an alumnus/a. Tuition includes refreshments during the day and luncheon.
