______________________________________________________________________________
In the Fall 2006 semester CRC is offering the following sessions:
1. Open House Sessions in broad discipline areas
The Open House sessions are organized in broad discipline areas
covered by one or more CEU departments. These sessions are intended to
introduce participants to CEU's approach to a relevant discipline and
new techniques for designing courses in that field. To this end the
sessions will provide participants access to the facilities and
resources of the CEU and the appropriate department, as well as general
training workshops on course design and teaching methodology.
Participants are invited to use the CEU library, visit relevant classes
and meet faculty. The primary target groups of the Open House sessions
are junior academics who are at the beginning of their teaching career,
or mid-career and senior academics who would benefit from the above
offerings.
Open House CRC sessions offered in Fall 2006 will be hosted by the
following CEU departments on the dates indicated:
Sociology - 9 - 13 October, 2006 (deadline for applications:
5 September, 2006)
Environmental Sciences - 16 - 20 October, 2006 (deadline for
applications: 15 September, 2006)
Philosophy - 20 - 24 November, 2006 (deadline for applications:
15 October, 2006)
Legal Studies - 27 November - 1 December, 2006 (deadline for
applications: 15 October, 2006)
Important note: Applicants to Open House sessions should consult the
relevant CEU department's homepage (click on department's name in the
above list) to see the description of regular MA courses offered during
the week of the CRC session. Preference will be given to applicants
whose courses match with the hosting department's profile and interest.
2. Course Innovation Sessions
These sessions intend to explore the cutting edge developments in
a particular discipline. The sessions are meant primarily for senior
faculty with significant teaching and research experience or for
outstanding, research-oriented junior faculty. By discussing recent
developments and exploring contemporary debates with CEU's host
departments and faculty, participants are expected to revise or update
their courses or offer new courses in their particular area of interest.
Additional training on course development is also offered by the CRC.
These sessions are organized with a strong involvement of CEU
departments and often will be combined with a workshop or a conference
on the topic of the session.
In Fall 2006 we offer the following Course Innovation Sessions:
Medieval Studies
Roman, Early Medieval, Medieval - Continuity, Discontinuity
16 - 22 September, 2006
(deadline for applications: 11 August, 2006)
The CRC workshop organized with the cooperation of the CEU Medieval
Studies department, proposes to explore recent academic trends in the
interpretation of the period following the Fall of the Roman Empire. It
will focus on historical, art historical, and archaeological aspects of
these changes and processes with a particular emphasis on the functional
changes and transformations of Late Roman urban settlements, Christian
cult places and their religious and cultural background. The larger
framework of these historical interpretations will also be explored,
discussing the concept of the Migration Period (Early Middle Ages) or
the survival of the Roman Empire in the political or ideological systems
of the Byzantine or of the Holy Roman Empire.
The session is recommended to academics who do research on these
aspects of historical transformations and also those who work on new
course concepts creating a closer cooperation between different
disciplines in the university curriculum concerning classics, history,
archaeology, and art history.
Open Society Archives and History
The 1956 Revolution in Perspective
4 -11 November, 2006
(deadline for applications: 1 October, 2006)
The joint CRC session organized in cooperation with the CEU History
Department and the OSA Archivum aims to bring scholars and experts with
significant teaching and research experience to discuss how the 1956
revolution and its crack-down influenced and altered dissident thinking
within the Soviet bloc during its afterlife, and how these experiences
might be compared to the lessons of similar events, with a special focus
on the Polish events in 1966, and Prague Spring and Fall,1968.
The session offers an optional workshop entitled "1956 Revolution and
opposition movements under totalitarian regimes" and a round table
discussion on the evening of the exhibition opening (November 4) devoted
to the art works of Endre Rozsda on the pre-history of the revolution.
Both event's goal is to help lecturers/professors to develop or update
their own courses related to the topics above by bringing into curricula
new primary sources and approaches.
Participants will also have a chance to get acquainted with the new
virtual collection at OSA Archivum on 1956.
Important note: CRC session applicants are encouraged to present a
paper during the workshop and take part in the round table discussion.
Those participants who wish to present a paper or give presentation
should submit 400-500 words abstract for the paper. The paper can
address either a theoretical aspect or focus on a particular case
study.
Gender
Gender and Post-State Socialism
13 - 17 November, 2006
(deadline for applications: 6 October, 2006)
The workshop organised by the CRC office and the Gender department
raises the question of what gender relations look like in relation to
the particular histories and contemporary political/social landscape of
this region. It explores the extent to which feminist theory and
research on gender created in other parts of the world can be useful for
addressing local specificities and transnational processes influencing
post-state socialist countries today.
Within this frame, the Gender department will prepare a lecture
specifically focused on the topic followed by a round-table discussion.
We welcome applications from academics from the region who already have
experience in teaching gender courses in humanities or social sciences.
