| Iara Dundas, Graduate Assistant of Center for Latin American Caribbean Studies and Art, Art History & Visual StudiesPlease note: Iara has left the "Center for Latin American Caribbean Studies" group at Duke University; some info here might not be up to date. Iara A. Dundas is a Ph.D. candidate studying the art and architecture of France in the seventeenth century under the supervision of Sara Galletti. Her dissertation, "For God and King: Jesuit Ephemeral Spectacles in France Under the First Bourbons" examines the production and patronage of spectacles and ephemeral apparatuses by the Jesuit Order in France. Her research considers the place of ephemera as part of the artist-architect's profession, the role of these projects in fostering the Jesuit Order's relationship with the monarchy to spread power and influence, and the way these works, and the events for which they were constructed, were used by both the Church and the State in a particularly turbulent time in the history of France.
