AGHI partners with a variety of other institutes and researchers to foster collaboration and innovative research among our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAGHI in Translation\u201d is a partnership between the Alexander Grass Humanities Institute and Deep Vellum<\/a> publishing that brings the world\u2019s most innovative writers and translators into dialogue across academic and public spheres. Established in 2025, the partnership supports the production, publication, and promotion of one work of literary translation annually with a sustaining AGHI grant, a translator mini-residency, and public events on and around the Johns Hopkins campus, as well as publication of exclusive excerpts and book-related features in The Hopkins Review<\/em>. By producing and promoting major works of literary translation from a wide range of languages, the AGHI and Deep Vellum aim to deepen literary engagement in the city of Baltimore, across the nation, and throughout the world.

This encompasses both tried and tested methodologies in new digital formats, as well as innovative means of answering humanities questions and even the inception of new kinds of research. From enabling the comparative study of multiple versions of medieval illuminated manuscripts via high-definition online searchable web platforms like the Roman de la Rose Project, to founding and editing the online journal Digital Philology<\/em>, to hosting meetings of the world\u2019s leading scholars of new media at the Center for Advanced Media Studies,<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Global South Humanities Initiative (GSHI) seeks to highlight the vital contributions of geographically and racially marginalized communities to the study of the humanities writ large. We host events with scholars from (and of) the Global South, maintain a postdoctoral fellowship, and offer lecture series, conferences, and other activities in partnership with leading universities and research institutions overseas. Our program is invested in exploring the wide spectrum of actors and historical processes that have shaped both humanistic culture and the languages in which it travels, embarking from the premise that the study of the humanities necessitates contending with the many interlocking structures of power that created the modern world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The GSHI is envisioned as a clearing house of ideas for JHU faculty and students whose work in the humanistic disciplines leads them to ask fundamental questions about the humanities in a global context, such as rethinking traditional methods and goals of the humanities considering their complex history, what scholars in North America can learn from humanistic practices in the Global South, and what new forms of humanism that could facilitate. We support the development of humanistic thought that will critically engage a global present witnessing the widespread rise of racism, xenophobia, majoritarianism, and violence that continues to separate the Global North from the Global South. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For general information about the initiative, contact us at gshi@jh.edu<\/a>. The Hopkins Review <\/em>is a quarterly journal of literature and culture. It\u2019s created in partnership between the Writing Seminars, the Johns Hopkins University Press, and with funding from the Alexander Grass Humanities Institute. Curated by editor in chief Dora Malech, fiction editor Danielle Evans, and an editorial staff of talented emerging writers honing their own craft in the Writing Seminars, The Hopkins Review <\/em>endeavors to feature a unique blend of tradition and innovation reflective of both its deep roots and vibrant inter generational team. The first Hopkins Review was started in 1947, the revived in 2007 after a long period of dormancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are a multidisciplinary research group devoted to study, stewardship, and stories of working waterfronts, coastal infrastructures, and oceans under conditions of globalization and environmental instability. Transoceanic shipping and the planet\u2019s hydrosphere define the global scope of the group\u2019s interests, but we place particular emphasis on the marine environments of the Port of Baltimore, the greater Tidewater region, and the Atlantic world. The initiative offers events and programs, courses, partners, and research opportunities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AGHI partners with a variety of other institutes and researchers to foster collaboration and innovative research among our community.
