Friends of 麻豆直播 present the next webinar in our monthly series on , August 28, 2022, at 6:00 pm EDT, featuring Prof. Elizabeth R. Macaulay聽and moderated by Prof.聽惭辞谤补驳听碍别谤蝉别濒. At the New York 1964/65 World鈥檚 Fair, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan sponsored a pavilion. Archaeology and the nation鈥檚 cultural patrimony were central to several of the displays in the pavilion and were essential to one of the key aims of the pavilion: promoting American tourism to Jordan. A particular vision of archaeology and antiquity, which connected Jordan to the Greco-Roman and Christian pasts was emphasized. The pavilion also aimed to shape American public opinion about the larger geopolitics of the region through a politicized mural about refugees and water rights in the region. As part of the pavilion, a column from Jerash was presented to the city of New York as a lasting token of friendship between Jordan and the United States. In this lecture, the gift of the column will be contextualized in the larger Jordanian practice of gifting columns and capitals to major American cities or various universities with a history of excavations in Jordan. Gifting of columns and capitals is also compared to the Jordanian gifting of a Dead Sea Scroll jar to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (also connected to the World鈥檚 Fair) and the Jordanian practice of selling duplicate 鈥淒ead Sea Scroll jars鈥� in the 1950s and 1960s.
This talk will examine the public presentation of Jordan鈥檚 ancient cultural heritage at the fair and the effectiveness of columns and capitals as diplomatic gifts. The webinar聽will conclude with a live Q&A session moderated by Prof. Morag Kersel (DePaul University).
