DESCRIPTION:Join us for the annual B.L. Webster Memorial Lecture with Katha
 rine Huemoeller from The University of British Columbia. \n\nTalk title: 
 “And the Children Born to Her”: The Double Genealogies of Roman Slaveh
 olders\n\nTalk Description: “Natal alienation” (Orlando Patterson) has
  long been recognized as a fundamental mechanism of control for Roman slav
 eholders. This talk highlights a different\, but ultimately complementary\
 , slaving practice: selective genealogy. I show that enslavers frequently 
 documented (certain) kin relations among the enslaved and freed members of
  their households. Engaging in a strategic mode of genealogy\, they mobili
 zed the lineages of others to sustain\, supplement and sometimes even stan
 d in for their own.\n\nShort Bio: Kat Huemoeller is\, as of July 1\, Assoc
 iate Professor in the department of Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern
  Studies at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver\, Canada. She 
 earned her PhD in Classics from Princeton University and\, before that\, w
 orked in the non-profit world in gender equity and reproductive justice. H
 er research interests include slavery\, Roman law\, women’s history\, an
 d gender history. Her first book\, "The Child Follows the Womb: Gender\, R
 eproduction\, and Roman Slavery\,” was published this year by Yale Unive
 rsity Press. Her second book project concerns women’s investment in and 
 practice of slavery in the late Republic and early Empire.\n\nThis talk wi
 ll not be recorded and will not be available on Zoom.
