About the talk
The talk investigates Matteo Ricci’s contribution to the intellectual history of melancholy. This specific rhetorical edge is still rather unexplored, and is potentially able to add meaningful insights to the interpretation of Ricci, who referred to himself as a melancholic missionary. The dream that anticipated the success of Ricci’s ascent to Beijing took place under a melancholic spell. Quite remarkably, Ricci describes melancholy as something good, while Christian teaching rejects melancholy as a spiritual malady. For Dante Alighieri melancholy was also quite undesirable, as it was an omen of despair and death.
The term melancholy comes from ancient Greek medicine, and holds a negative meaning. Aristotle, however, links melancholy to genius. Similarly, Renaissance associates melancholy to the artists’ power of imagination. The same Matteo Ricci associates melancholy with dreams and imagination. Imagination was a fundamental trait in Jesuit contemplative exercise of 'composition of place'. Robert Burton’s The Anatomy of Melancholy (1621), the modern Magna Charta of melancholy, often cites Matteo Ricci.

ABOUT THE TALK
With the proliferation of analog and digital platforms for the development and dissemination of architecture and art, the intermediate zones between disciplines are becoming increasingly dynamic or blurred in terms of representation as a form of research. This extends to thesis projects in architectural schools and in programs where media is the central focus of artistic production. This talk will question the privileging of non-human actants in the production of the architectural project through an examination of the critical capacities of mediatic architectures to offer alternatives to contemporary architecture and urbanism. By undertaking a close reading of media or artistic spectacle within the art world versus schools of architecture or art, I suggest that it does not constitute research in any normative sense and that its importation into academic programs constitutes an opportunity for such experimental media to become critical.

About the Talk
Ocean and coastal conservation, management and policy are impacted by expanding coastal populations, increased exploration of resources and climate change; solutions to address these problems are urgent. However, the ocean and the resources therein cannot be understood or managed solely within administrative boundaries. Ultimately, the success of place-based coastal and marine conservation depends on the management of whole marine ecosystems, covering the management of social and economic activities. This is the reason sustainable management of marine conservation areas must be implemented within the context of wider integrated ocean management, i.e. at the marine ecosystem scale (ecosystem approach/ ecosystem based management).
To address ocean management and conservation, research and knowledge on environmental, social and economic aspects, needs to be combined in order to address the cumulative impacts and interactions of multiple stressors on marine ecosystems. While addressing management problems and searching for solutions, the following question is often asked by managers: “Who is doing what?”, and “where?, and when?, and what for?“. It is often the case that access to actors, information, knowledge, and even ocean expertise is fragmented, as knowledge and people are scattered – in terms of territory, discipline, sector, and jurisdiction. Because of this fragmentation the research and management community face challenges in finding and synthesizing the necessary knowledge to address complex socioecological issues.
The talk highlights the advantages of the ecosystem approach to address ocean and coastal problems and identifies a fourth dimension in sustainable ocean and coastal development: governance. The talk concludes with the presentation of the Future Ocean AllianceTM (FOATM), which was being created with the goal of strengthening the research and science-policy dialogue on ocean governance by facilitating and promoting the collaboration among networks of producers and users of knowledge.
About the Speaker
Isabel Torres de Noronha has been a very active member of the ocean community for the past two decades. During the last decade Dr. Torres de Noronha has been working at various ocean international levels delivering policy analyses and advice based on the best available knowledge. Among other activities, she worked with the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO in tailored capacity development and adaptation to coastal and ocean climate change; developed and coordinated the Seas of the CPLP with the Community of Portuguese Language Countries, analyzed the role of regions and proposed an architecture for the European Integrated Ocean Policy with the Conference of the Peripheral Maritime Regions of Europe; coordinated a regional integrated sea strategy for the Region of the Algarve (Portugal); and with the Global Forum on Ocean, Coasts, and Islands produced numerous analyses to feed the UN Informal Consultative Process of the Law of the Sea and the development of the Mauritius Strategy of Implementation for Small Island Developing States. At European level her work on marine conservation focused on technical groups: at OSPAR regarding marine conservation; and at EU for coastal water quality. She holds a Ph.D. in Marine Policy, focused in governance, comparative policy analyses, sustainable development and integrated ocean policies. She has also extensive experience in environmental impacts statements and produced position papers within the process of public consultation of EIAs, environmental law and strategies, specializing in water resource management and marine conservation. Her background is Marine Biology and Fisheries, with a professional degree on environmental impact assessment and 10 years of senior experience of predicting cumulative environmental impacts on watersheds and coastal aquaculture.

USJ Rector, Fr. Peter Stilwell together with two representatives from the Students’ Association, Patrick Ma (FCI) and Jack Lo (FAL), participated the IAU 15th General Conference, Higher Education: A Catalyst for Innovative and Sustainable Societies from 13th to 16th of November 2016. The conference took place at the Chulalongkorn University of Bangkok, Thailand. Around 300 participants including speakers attended this conference. With the sad passing of the Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej, all the participants respected their period of mourning.
In the augural Ceremony and Welcome Reception to Commemorate the 100 Years of University System in Thailand, it was initiated with the speech of the princess of Thailand, Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn. Among the talks I had attended, the case study presentation “Fostering global responsibility and leadership in students” impressed me the most. The speaker is from the educational department of University of Groningen in Friesland, Netherland. It is a university of over 400 hundred years. The speaker presented to us that her university mainly applies practical teaching methods to students. They approach the society in order to understand the type of graduates are needed. Traditional universities use mainly theoretical teaching style that will not benefit much to the society. The way they adopted will shorten the gap between university and the society. Her interactive way of presentation also impressed me a lot.
I have benefited a lot from attending this conference as it enriched my knowledge base about High Educational related topics, learn from different speakers their presentation skills which equip me to prepare myself to present papers to international conference for my studies and last but not least, to experience the hospitality of the Thai people and enjoy the delicious Thai food.
Finally, I am so thankful to USJ for offering me this opportunity to attend this conference with our rector. It is my honor and I have not only learnt a lot from Fr. Stilwell but also widened my vision by attending those talks. My life experience has been raised to another level!

About the Talk
Art is a type of cultural baggage, something which inevitably travels along with human beings on all their journeys: physical journeys, mental journeys, spiritual journeys. The beginning of the Modern era (ca. 1400) was marked by two great shifts: the start of the global age of empire building, and of large-scale population movements around the world. As more people travelled for longer distances, art and culture increasingly moved with them. This began an accelerated process of inter- and intracultural exchange. European art and culture, which formerly had been a part of territories and landscapes exclusive to Europe, now ‘territorialized’ parts of non-European lands from the 16th Century onward. The Jesuit mission in Asia not only brought Western architecture, music, poetry, and painting (and the integral aesthetic that went along with these modes) but also established an enduring resonance of these things. Some examples: Matteo Ricci in his Western-style villa in Zhaoqing; Tomás Periera building pipe organs and teaching Western music theory in Beijing; François Ravary building organs with bamboo pipes and forming China’s first brass band in Shanghai. Resonances are also sometimes an echo left behind, one we still perceive when we look at the ruins of St. Paul’s. And they can be new stirrings, either artificial resonances (mimicry), or ones that aspire to authenticity. The emphasis today on the dialectic of histoire croisée (‘entangled history’) helps to move us beyond the rhetoric of confrontation and explore how East and West have always found meeting points in the arts, even when other media and discourses are not compatible and lack resonance.
About the Speaker

About the Talk
Yves Raguin S.J. in his book “Les déserts de Dieu” (“God's deserts”) opens his Christian faith to the experience of Zen spirituality and the Chinese care for sensibility and imagination. He describes how God's presence goes beyond all expectations, ideas and words. In this respect, he also opens a space for a poetic approach of life described as a new perception of the unity of mind, affection and body. In dialogue with contemporary French writers such as Jean-Pierre Lemaire and Gérard Bocholier we shall see how the writing and reading of poetry may also decipher the world as a perpetual Creation leading to a dynamic integrative communion between God, the others and the self.
About the Speaker
Claude TUDURI S.J. has been teaching art and literature for nearly 20 years in different universities in Paris and China ( Pierre et Marie Curie, Centre Sèvres, Versailles). He has published widely about spirituality and aesthetics in different French periodicals and has also worked with many artists in multimedia productions. His last book aiming to achieve reconciliation between poetry and spirituality, is entitled L'arbre au fond de la jetée, Tituli, Paris, 2016.

ABOUT THE TALK
With the support and direction of MGTO, architecture and design students at USJ spent last semester working on proposals for the renovation of the Ritz Building in Senado Square. Visiting Professor João Ó will discuss the background of the Ritz Building, the problems and opportunities for heritage conservation and adaptive reuse in Macau. He will then explain the studio structure and objectives, and introduce each of the student projects. Prizes will be awarded for the best designs.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
João Ó is a Visiting Professor at the University of Saint Joseph, and cofounder (with Rita Machado) of Impromptu Projects, a multi-disciplinary studio practice focused on the design of ephemeral structures as well as on the study of their social relevance. Impromptu Projects proposes a kind of architecture that is mindful of the territory’s current situation, aiming at the expansion of improbable public places with the involvement of the local community.
