Place: The Auditorium at the Institute (right across from the reception). After the lecture, the East / Central Europe Research Group at the Institute of Anthropology will arrange an open house meeting in the Auditorium, from 15.15 to 17.00).

| Sample fieldwork synopsis As I promised you earlier, I have found a "real" synopsis for you, which you can take a look at, and see what kind of result you are working towards. The synopsis is now located in a box in the reception. There is only one copy, so you have to make copies for your own use. The box is marked with the following text: "Synopsis, East Europe Course". |
| New guidelines for synopses / project descriptions have been posted under "Guidelines for project descriptions" on the front page of the course homepage. Click here to see them. |
| The first students in
Vilnius have now joined our cooperation. Two of them want to joint
Group 1 and Group 3. A third wants to start her own group, with the
theme: "Propagation of Soviet ideology through films in Soviet
period". I will shortly mail more detailed information to the two groups concerned, and post the names of the students on the homepage. Meanwhile, if there is anyone who is interested in joining the new group, please tell me, and we can move people around. |
| Students in Copenhagen: The compendium for the course lacks three articles. These will be copied separately, and inserted into the compendium. When you buy the compendium, please check that the three extra articles are there. If you already have bought it, contact the institute Reception to get the extra articles. The monographs (by Partapuoli and Mortensen) for the course are only available online. Go to the course reading list (click here) and click on the monograph titles (they are the two first items on the list). You can download the monographs to your computer and read them in a regular browser window, or print them, if necessary. The monograph by Partapuoli is approximately 120 pages long, the monograph by Mortensen is approximately 100 pages. |
