Anthropology

[close] A place to discuss all the unique aspects of Deaf culture as highlighted in the thriller Silent Fear (A novel inspired by true crimes) by Lance & James Morcan. This group can also be an intersection of sorts where Deaf and hearing people can engage and learn from each other.

[close] Each month a theme will be set with a suggested book for each age group (adult, young adult, 8-12 years, young children). You do not have to stick to your age group, it's just to provide a little something for everyone. Some months adult themes may be included, there will be a warning given prior if this is the case. If you add a book to the tbr please let a moderator know the key themes, genres and age range that it falls under.

[close] Inspired by all the different ethnographies we in the Cultural Anthropology Programme at Victoria University of Wellington are reading, we have started an ethnography book club. The goal is to read and discuss an ethnography every two months. We invite all those interested in ethnography (students, anthropologists, writers) to join us. Cultural Anthropology staff will select and read an ethnography over the two-month period, then discuss the ethnography during the last week of the second month. We will post some questions to get started in thinking about the book. Where possible we will also invite the authors to join us in our online conversations. We will meet in person at Victoria University of Wellington for our discussion during the last week of the second month. If this sounds like something you are interested in, you are welcome to join us in person and/or participate in our online conversation. All welcome!
