SUMMARY:Summer School Asian Food: History\, Anthropology\, Sociology
DESCRIPTION:Leiden University enjoys a world-wide reputation for its expertise on Asia and for its Asian collections. To coincide with the offcial opening of The Asian Library in September 2017\, the International Institute for Asian Studies (IIAS)\, LeidenAsiaCentre (LAC) and the Shared Taste Project at Leiden University are hosting a Summer School devoted to the academic study of Asian Food for MA/PhD students and early career scholars.\n \nThis unique occasion will provide wide ranging coverage of this growing interdisciplinary field with contributions from international experts with at least one of whom each student will be guaranteed an individual consultation about their own work.\nThe aim is to highlight the wide range of resources for the academic study of Asian Food\, available in Leiden and to present advanced methodological approaches and research techniques\, together with the hands-on experience necessary for the analysis of historical documents and artefacts.\n \nVia a combination of expert lectures\, student-led discussions\, individual supervision\, and local field trips\, this Summer School will provide participants with an insight into the growing interdisciplinary field of Asian Food Studies\, which will include sessions in history\, anthropology\, sociology\, and material culture studies.\n \nThe four senior academic leaders will provide guidance to help students navigate the burgeoning literature on food\, establishing in dialogue with the students a good sense of the necessary anthropological\, sociological and historical tools for the analysis of all aspects of food: from preparation to consumption\, from shared dining and banqueting to individual eating practices\, from visual representations of food practices to the material culture that is inextricably connected to food practices\, today as in the past.\nThe lectures\, discussion groups and individual research supervision will be combined with: hands-on research training; undertaking exercises in participant observation; handling objects in museums and private collections.  All this will be supported by visits to the Special Collections of Leiden University.\n \nThe international experts who will contribute include: Nir Avieli (Ben Gurion University\, Israel)\, Anne Murcott (SOAS\, University of London)\, Katarzyna Cwiertka (Leiden University)\, and Anne Gerritsen (Warwick University / Leiden University).\n \nSource: http://iias.asia/masterclass/asian-food-history-anthropology-sociology \nShare on FacebookTweetFollow usSave
