Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course intends to provide an overview over the history of social and cultural anthropology, with an emphasis on broad trajectories and theoretical traditions. This entails a focus on individual scholars, as well as on specific "schools" and more general intellectual trends at the time. While references will be made to older contributions, the starting point of this overview will be the second half of the 19th century. The intention is not only to cover 21st century contributions as well but to juxtapose "old" and "new" variants of certain theoretical traditions throughout the course. While the course is a lecture course, there will be a number of mandatory original texts so that students can get an unfiltered understanding of what individual scholars were trying to communicate.
