Fulton School of Liberal Arts Public Humanities Program

The mission of the Fulton Public Humanities Program (FPHP) is to bring the arts and humanities to SU’s surrounding community and to foster dialogue. This includes local, regional, national, and global audiences.

We fund projects that promote an awareness of minority and marginalized groups including those represented by the Heritage Months (African American, Women’s, LGBTQ, Latinx, and Native American). FPHP supports global diversity efforts that highlight the peoples, populations, and cultures of SU’s continental Area Study regions (African, East Asian, European, Latin American, Middle Eastern, and South Asian).

In addition to diversity, FPHP encourages an expansive view of the humanities by funding interdisciplinary exchanges between the arts and sciences.

November 17 - Once Upon a Time, a Japanese Dowager Issued Some Documents
The woman known to us as Jukeini (d. 1568) exercised rare political power among Japan’s warrior-class women, issuing over two dozen documents during a series of turbulent succession crises. This talk by Professor David Spafford (University of Pennsylvania) explores Jukeini's writings, revealing the complex roles of wives and mothers in samurai kinship networks. SU Professor Michael McCarty moderates this discussion on gender, power and family in pre-modern Japan.
