Under the supervision of Eeva Sippola and Kerstin Knopf and the coordination of Joanna Chojnicka, a large range of
presentations and activities were offered to visitors at the pagoda of Faculty 10. The postcolonial team was supported by the student assistants Michaela Puschmann and Anna Todt as well as the members of Stuga Anglistik.
Throughout the day, fortune-cookies and arabic sweets were
handed around and a mini-cinema invited visitors to watch short movies made by the students of MA Transnationale Literaturwissenschaft and a poetry reading.
Presentations included Postcolonial Literary and Cultural Studies by Prof. Dr. Kerstin Knopf, Postcolonial Language Studies by Dr. Marivic
Lesho, Linguistic
Fieldwork in Papua New Guinea by Dr. Lidia Mazzitelli and Research-based learning
by BA-Student Michaela Puschmann. Many keen visitors could be found in our
workshop on the International Phonetic Alphabet, where participants had the
chance to read and write in IPA-Symbols.
INPUTS contributed to our pagoda by presenting their Guayana-
and Haiti-Projects, while Michael Claridge offered a photo-exhibition on the students' excursion to Shakespeare's London and on the most recent play by the Parliament of Foules, Doctor Faustus.
At the end of the day, our team enjoyed the concert of Samy Deluxe
and celebrated a succesful and rewarding day. Thanks to everyone who
contributed - we are already looking forward to the next Open Campus!
