THE SOVIET OTHERWISE: AFFECTS, MARGINS, AND IMAGINARIES IN THE LATE SOVIET ERA

Tallinn Summer School invites students to Estonia to study cultural-historical processes in the late Soviet Union and to study them “otherwise” – by way of less travelled paths for researching the period from the mid-1950s to the 1990s.

DEGREE / DATES: 26 JULY – 2 AUGUST 2019

The course is designed for PhD students in the Humanities and Social Sciences, but highly motivated and prepared MA students and non-degree scholars are also welcome to apply. Participants should have an upper-intermediate command of English as this will be the language of instruction. Students are expected to do some preparatory reading in order to participate in the seminars and workshops.

Students will have the option of presenting their own research during the student colloquia.

To apply, please register and complete the 300-500 word personal motivation statement. Your personal statement should include the short information of your CV and your research interests. In addition, please provide a title and short description for your student presentation (if applicable).

The registration opens on 01 February 2019 and will close on 30 April 2019. Notices of course admission will be emailed on a rolling basis. Applicants who require an early decision should contact the organisers.
