Examination topics
Key questions will be how the themes of art, architecture and food can be subsumed under the umbrella of 'material culture', how anthroplogists have approached this field of study and which are the possibilities for crossing over to other disciplines and beyond academia. Input will be given via texts, discussions, presentations and site visits.
Reading list
Mandatory reading materials will be provided via Moodle or the 'Handapparat' at the KSA library. Further recommended reading will be announced in the course.
