Emily Berquist Soule, Associate Professor, History, California State University, Long Beach FLETCHER JONES FOUNDATION FELLOW

Emily Berquist Soule, Professor of History, California State University, Long Beach

Topic: The Atlantic Slave Trade and the Rise and Fall of the Spanish Empire

Emily Berquist Soule is a historian of the Spanish Empire and Colonial Latin America. She is presently at work on a 500-year history of the slave trade in Spain and Spanish America, The Atlantic Slave Trade and the Rise and Fall of the Spanish Empire (under contract with Yale University Press). The book explores how the slave trade stood at the foundation of the Spanish Empire, from Spain’s first overseas explorations to the Canary Islands in the early fifteenth century through the loss of its final American colonies in the late nineteenth century. It explores how Spain’s involvement in the slave trade was motivated by profit; built on a rhetoric of difference legitimated by religion; and sustained by policies of governance organized around race. It makes the case that slavery stood at the center of the emerging global economy of capitalism; lay at the foundation of the bodies of laws that organized human society; and was inseparable from the rhetoric of world geopolitical relations. Previous research funding for this project includes a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities (2015-2016), and an American Philosophical Society Franklin Research Grant (2018). Related journal articles have appeared in Atlantic Studies and Slavery and Abolition. Berquist Soule’s first monograph, The Bishop’s Utopia: Imagining Improvement in Colonial Peru (Pennsylvania, 2014), was written with the support of a Fulbright Fellowship (2003-2004), an American Council of Learned Societies Fellowship (2011-2012), and a Dibner Fellowship in the History of Science at the Huntington Library (2003-2004), as well as multiple smaller grants. Berquist Soule completed her B.A. cum laude at Vassar College, and her Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Austin, where she studied under Jorge Cañizares-Esguerra. She is Professor of History at California State University, Long Beach.

Ben Davidson, Fellow, History, Smithsonian Institution MELLON FELLOW

In support of research for this project, Davidson has received long-term fellowships from the U.S. Department of Education and New York University, and short-term fellowships from institutions including the American Historical Association, the Massachusetts Historical Society, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, and the Virginia Historical Society.

Justina Spencer, Fellow, Art History, Carleton University BARBARA THOM POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW

Justina Spencer, Fellow, Art History, Carleton University

Topic: Peeping In, Peering Out: Monocularity and Early Modern Art

Justina Spencer is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Carleton University. She holds a Ph.D. in art history from Oxford University. Her primary research interest concerns how early modern artists conceptualized and translated three-dimensional space onto the canvas or page, whether by means of linear perspective, optical instrumentation, or cartography. Her work has appeared in the Journal of the History of Collections and Intersections: Interdisciplinary Studies in Early Modern Culture. At The Huntington Library, she is completing her first book, Peeping In, Peering Out: Monocularity and Early Modern Vision, which explores the role of monocular vision in the development of linear perspective and anamorphosis from the fifteenth to the seventeenth century. This study probes the discrepancy between natural and pictorial perspective and argues that monocular art forms—such as Dutch perspective boxes—were collected and interpreted as intellectual exercises used to sharpen visual and rhetorical acumen.


Eva Mroczek, Associate Professor, Theology, University of California, Davis ACLS/BURKHARDT FELLOW

Eva Mroczek, Associate Professor, Theology, University of California, Davis

Topic: Out of the Cave: The Possibility of a New Scriptural Past

Eva Mroczek received her PhD from the University of Toronto in 2012 and is Associate Professor in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of California, Davis. She works at the intersection of Jewish antiquity, the history of biblical interpretation, and Book History. Her first book, The Literary Imagination in Jewish Antiquity (Oxford UP 2016), illustrates how early Jewish writers imagined their own sacred writing before the Bible existed as a book and a concept. It was awarded the 2017 De Long Prize in Book History from SHARP and was the finalist for the 2018 Jordan Schnitzer Prize from the Association for Jewish Studies. She is currently completing a guide to the many imaginary books mentioned in ancient and medieval Jewish literature. Her project at The Huntington library is Out of the Cave: The Possibility of a New Scriptural Past, a history of the very idea of textual discovery. The famous story about the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls by a Bedouin shepherd in a desert cave is not isolated. Its contours are basically true, but it stands in a tradition that dates to antiquity, spanning the boundary between premodern religious mythmaking and modern scholarship. Identifying the discovery narrative as a durable genre of historical and theological discourse—both in and about Jewish and Christian texts—this project illustrates how such stories are sites where basic problems of the historical and religious imagination are worked out. It reveals that tales of textual loss and recovery lie at the heart of how ancient and modern people understand the survival of the past and its incursions into the present and asks what happens to tradition in light of belated discoveries of hidden knowledge—unknown scriptural pasts.


Alejandra Dubcovsky, Associate Professor, History, University of California, Riverside FLETCHER JONES FOUNDATION FELLOW IN THE HUNTINGTON-UC PROGRAM FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE HUMANITIES

Alejandra Dubcovsky, Associate Professor, History, University of California, Riverside

Topic: At the Frontlines of a Forgotten War: Conflict and Gender in La Florida

Alejandra Dubcovsky is an associate professor of history at the University of California, Riverside. She is also the inaugural fellow in the Program for the Advancement of the Humanities, a partnership of The Huntington and UC Riverside that aims to support the future of the humanities. She received her BA and PhD from UC Berkeley, and a Masters in Library and Information Science from San Jose State. Her first book, Informed Power: Communication in the Early American South (HUP 2016), won the 2016 Michael V. R. Thomason Book Award from the Gulf South Historical Association. Her works has been featured in Ethnohistory, Early America Studies, The Journal of Southern History, Native South, and the William and Mary Quarterly, among others. She has served in the editorial boards of the journals of Ethnohistory (2015-2018), NAISA (2017-2020), and Native South (2016-2021). In 2018, she was awarded a Mellon Advancing Intercultural Studies Grant and a UC Riverside-Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) Faculty Exchange Grant. Her new project, At the Frontlines of a Forgotten War, Gender, Violence, and Conflict in La Florida examines several fronts of Queen Anne’s War (1702-1713) through the lives and experiences of women. It interrogates the role of women and gender in violent conflict, and reconsiders who narrates stories of war, loss, and victory.


Fuson Wang, Assistant Professor, English, University of California, Riverside FLETCHER JONES FOUNDATION FELLOW IN THE HUNTINGTON-UC PROGRAM FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE HUMANITIES

Fuson Wang, Assistant Professor, English, University of California, Riverside

Topic: Nasty, Brutish, and Long: Romantic Disability Theory at the Brink of Normal

Fuson Wang is an assistant professor of English at the University of California, Riverside. He specializes in British Romantic literature and medical humanities. Having received undergraduate degrees in both mathematics and English literature, Fuson tends to approach literary studies with a consciously interdisciplinary orientation. His current book manuscript, The Smallpox Report: Vaccination and the Medico-Literary Genres of Romantic Disease, argues that smallpox's eventual eradication in 1980 was as much a triumph of the Romantic-era literary imagination as it was an achievement of medical Enlightenment science. During his residence at The Huntington, he will begin work on a second book project on Romantic-era disability representation, tentatively titled Nasty, Brutish, and Long: Romantic Disability Theory at the Brink of Normal.
