Anotace

This course will be taught in person. For the case of stricter hygienic measures the course has a team in MS Teams which students can access via the URL: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3aiZ_kUvQQaq3J1cS-poKOOVwJ-o3l1ubQHO2Cb1_LrVc1%40thread.tacv2/conversations?groupId=ca7d99bc-019b-4d39-b834-8a7ccbcc8161&tenantId=e09276da-f934-4086-bf08-8816a20414a2 In this course we will explore migration from the joint perspectives of history and sociocultural anthropology. We will engage with key analytical concepts in migration history and ask what historical sources can be used to study mobility and what are the possibilities and limits in interpreting these historical records. The main focus will be on pre-modern history. We will read and discuss the assigned texts. Each student will prepare an in-class presentation. In the course the teacher will also make use of her participation in the European research network Women on the Move and will enable students to have „hands-on“ experience in this project (the research network webpage: https://www.womenonthemove.eu/).
