The organizer will arrange accommodation at Charles University dorms upon request. Participation fee for international students is 100 euros (free for Charles University and Erasmus students at Charles University; lower-income students can also apply for a reduced fee – see application forms). Students will have a possibility to obtain 4 ECTS credits for their participation (depending on the course – see below). Students who apply for both ethnomusicology summer courses only pay one participation fee. International Summer School: Romani Music - Date: May 27 to June 1, 2024 - Creadits: 4 - Lecturers: doc. Zuzana Jurková, with guest lecturer prof. Svanibor Pettan (University of Ljubljana). This year, we are organizing an ethnomusicology summer school on Romani music with the main topic Doing Research on and with Romani Musicians: Methodological and Representational Considerations. This one-week course will be organized in the framework of the Khamoro Romani Festival (May 27 to June 1, 2024), at the Faculty of Humanities, Charles University, Prague, and is intended for local and international university students. The summer school is set to be organized in-person. In the morning lectures, students will become acquainted with the main areas in which Roma participated in the creation of distinctive music styles. Moreover, we will discuss methodological and representational considerations, connected with research of and with Romani musicians. These discussions will reveal more general features of minorities’ music(s). Film screenings and workshops will be held in the afternoons. In the evenings, students will attend festival concerts. The course will be led by doc. Zuzana Jurková (FHS UK), with guest lecturer prof. Svanibor Pettan (University of Ljubljana, Slovenia). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- International Summer School: Theory and Ethnography of Electronic Dance Music Scenes - Date: June 3–8, 2024 - Credits: 4 - Lecturers: dr. Luis-Manuel Garcia (University of Birmingham), dr. David Verbuč (Faculty of Humanities, Charles University in Prague). The majority of classes for the Theory and Ethnography of Electronic Dance Music Scenes summer school will be taught by Luis-Manuel Garcia-Mispireta from the University of Birmingham (specializations in: European and American EDM scenes; queer nightlife ethnography; affect studies), with additional contribution by David Verbuč from the Faculty of Humanities, Charles University in Prague (specialization in American DIY and youth music cultures). The lectures will focus on theoretical issues and selected case studies dedicated to the following concepts and phenomena: affect theory, ethnography of body, dance, gender, and sexuality in EDM culture, ethnography of EDM audiences and music scenes. Moreover, a substantial part of class-work will be dedicated to methodological questions and the practicalities of fieldwork research as related to the ethnographic study of EDM scenes (nightlife ethnography, ethnography of body, dance, gender, and sexuality, autoethnography, sensory ethnography, creative ethnography). For the 2024 edition of this summer school, class content will be enriched with readings from Garcia-Mispireta’s new monograph, Together Somehow: Music, Affect, and Intimacy on the Dancefloor (Duke University Press, 2023), as a case study of ethnographic methods and cultural theory applied to EDM. |
