- **Event Name**: Uncanny Transcripts from a Chinese Cemetery: Multivocality and the Heritagization of Death 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 28 Jan, 2026 at 03:15 pm
- **Event Description**: Open lecture with Professor Yew-Foong Hui, Hong Kong Shue Yan University 

In defending Bukit Brown Cemetery in Singapore, which was subject to partial clearing to make way for an eight-lane highway, civil society actors argued that the cemetery was a deathscape embedded in a heritage ecology involving culture and nature. Valorised as a cultural heritage space in terms of its tangible forms (graves) and intangible forms (memorialisation rituals), as well as an idyllic nature area serving environmental interests, activists sought both heritage justice and environmental justice from the state. Drawing together these forms of heritage and the environment are various memorialisation rituals performed in the cemetery during different seasons, including Qing Ming, Hungry Ghost (Zhongyuan) Festival, and Winter Clothing Festival. These rituals commemorating the dead imbibe an ethics of care and engage the living, the dead, and the environment in a trans-worldly economy, whereby the dead continue to exercise agency over the living through uncanny transcripts. By unravelling the discursive acts of activists and ritual visitors associated with Bukit Brown Cemetery, this lecture will explicate the complex and uneasy intertwining of interests linked to deathscapes and heritage.
