ARTH 3590 Heritage, History, and Identity in Cambodia
Course description
This winter course on site in Cambodia will focus on Cambodian heritage past and present — how it’s been created in the past, including the city of Angkor, and how that heritage and history is understood and engaged today. We will visit historical sites as well as museums and other relevant sites, including performances, where history is remembered and engaged. There will be lectures, including by Cambodian experts, as well as film showings. The course will be based in Siem Reap, in collaboration with the Center for Khmer Studies, and there will also be excursions to Phnom Penh, the capital.
