DESCRIPTION:Presenting from her forthcoming book\, City of Sediments: A His
 tory of Seoul in the Age of Colonialism\, Dr. Oh will discuss how to read 
 space and spatial practices as a writing of history. Focusing on Seoul of 
 the 1920s under Japanese colonialism\, this talk will demonstrate how the 
 urban space became a site of discursive production for Japanese colonialis
 m and how architecture brought about a new mode of visual experience throu
 gh which a new notion of history and time was articulated. Because monumen
 tal architecture was built on top of the existing matrix of the former cap
 ital and Seoul was transformed into a living depository of heterogeneous d
 iscursive sediments\, this presentation will excavate these sediments as a
  method of history writing and explore the material and immaterial layers 
 of urbanity to reveal how colonial subjects engaged with\, and frequently 
 undermined\, the visual regime of Japanese colonialism.
