Module I: Introduction II. Method and Theory in Cultural Anthropology. C. Ethnology. Ethnology, or the theoretical aspect of anthropology, is concerned with the explanation of cultural regularities and variation through comparison and generalization based on existing ethnographic literature and the formulation of hypotheses for further research. Accordingly, theory building occurs both before fieldwork, as the anthropologist reviews the findings of other researchers to identify issues for investigation, and after, as he/she evaluates the significance of the findings. While there is some loose agreement on basic concepts, such as culture, numerous theoretical controversies and differences in orientation have dominated the development of ethnology. The following discussion covers the major anthropological theories that start from a scientific orientation and from the Boasian assumption that human nature must be understood in terms of cultural conditioning. I shall not cover those schools which cont est these axioms, namely: Postmodernists, who deny the possibility of objective scientific reporting and explanation.

104. Institute For Balkan Studies Oriented towards synchronic, diachronic and comparative analyses of the phenomena of Balkan history and culture. Conceived of as being an interdisciplinary study, balkanology has expanded its field of research to the questions of archaeology, anthropology, ethnology, linguistics, literature, art, etc. http://www.sanu.ac.yu/English/Institutes/balkan.htm

Institute for Balkan Studies Although the year 1999 marks the thirtieth anniversary of the Institute for Balkan Studies, its origin dates back to 1934, when Ratko Parežanin and Svetozar Spanaæeviæ founded in Belgrade the Balkan Institute, at the time the only of the kind in the Balkans. The Balkan Institute was stifled in 1941, when the German occupational authorities closed it down and confiscated its entire property, including its huge archives and library. More than quarter a century has elapsed until the idea has been restored to life that Balkan studies constitute an indispensable segment of our science. Under auspices of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, the Institute for Balkan Studies was founded in 1969. The idea was realized by academician Vaso Èubriloviæ, who gathered a group of scholars pursuing the study of the Balkans, and established its broad orientation in terms of chronology and interests.

x ETHNOLOGY Jewish Costumes Hasidic Jews Bokharan Jews The Jews of Cochin ... Amulets Ethnology is the branch of anthropology that deals with the comparative cultures of various peoples, including their distribution, characteristics, folkways, etc. At the Miller Museum, Jewish ethnology is interpreted several different ways. Ritual and ceremonial objects representing Jews in different parts of the world are part of the permanent collection. While Jewish religious beliefs are universal, no matter where Jews have lived, the form of objects used to ornament the Torah scrolls, and of objects associated with life cycle and calendar celebrations adopt the artistic styles of the host society. Jews are broadly divided into three subcultures: Ashkenazim, Sephardim and Mizrachim. These three groups are further divided into smaller geographical groups based upon their own self-designation. Generally, the Ashkenazim are the Jews of Eastern and Central Europe, although in the most narrow sense, it refers to Germany and German Jews. In the 15th and 16th centuries Jews from the Germanic centers of Mainz and Worms emigrated to Eastern Europe. The cultural centers of Ashkenazic Jewry shifted to Bohemia, Moravia, Poland and Lithuania. One of the most distinguishing features of these Jews at that time was their use of a Judeo-Germanic language (Yiddish). One of the greatest losses in the Holocaust was the wholesale destruction of Yiddishkeit, the distinct cultural expression of the Eastern European Jewry.

Ethnology The scientific study of the origin and functioning of human cultures. It is usually considered one of the major branches of cultural anthropology, the other two being anthropological archaeology and anthropological linguistics. In the 19th cent. ethnology was historically oriented and offered explanations for extant cultures, languages, and races in terms of diffusion, migration, and other historical processes. In the 20th cent. ethnology has focused on the comparative study of past and contemporary cultures. Since cultural phenomena can seldom be studied under conditions of experiment or control, comparative data from the total range of human behavior helps the ethnologist to avoid those assumptions about human nature that may be implicit in the dictates of any single culture. See R. H. Lowie, The History of Ethnological Theory (1938); E. A. Hoebel, Man in the Primitive World (1949, 2d ed. 1958); Margaret Mead, People and Places (1959); Barton Schwartz, Culture and Society (1968); Clifford Geertz

Skip Main Content Area WELCOME TO THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY ABOUT UVM ANTHROPOLOGY ANTHROPOLOGY COURSE INFORMATION The department offers a broad range of courses reflecting the breadth of the discipline as well as the diversity of our faculty's experiences and interests. Our program begins with four basic courses designed to introduce anthropology's four major subfields - Human Cultures, Prehistoric Archaeology, Physical Anthropology and Linguistic Anthropology. To aid students in developing familiarity with specific geographical regions and representative human groups, we offer a wide variety of "people" courses such as North American Indians, Indians of the Northeast, Native Peoples of Canada, Cultures of South America, Cultures of Africa, and South Pacific Cultures. We also offer a number of topical courses that focus on special themes such as Women, Society and Culture; Crisis Cults and Movements; Urban Anthropology; Third World Development; Race and Ethnicity; Sociolinguistics; Aging in Cross-Cultural Perspective; Historical Archaeology; Anthropological Theory; Archaeological Theory; Social Organization; Museum Anthropology; and Culture Change. Students can gain practical field experience in courses such as Field Work in Archaeology, Methods of Ethnographic Field Work, Microethnography and the student-initiated Senior Seminar. The UVM catalogue contains more specific information on all these offerings. Internships or field work practicums such as the one in the Diabetes Prevention Program in the Kahnawake Tribal Territory outside of Montreal, Quebec, are also available on a course or semester basis.

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... A > Abyssinia A B C D ... Z Abyssinia Geography kollas , is a district having the Sudanese climate, great heat, and a heavy summer rainfall. The soil is sandy, dry, and stony; the crops, maize, sugar cane, and cotton. Various kinds of acacias and mimosas form the sole vegetations of these arid, unhealthy regions, whose rushing torrents of the rainy season are but stony beds during the dry. The rocks and caverns are the haunts of lions and leopards; the trees swarm with monkeys. The scattered inhabitants of these burning plains are small, withered, nervous, irritable, and quarrelsome, devoid of the dignity which marks those who live in the high lands. The middle zone, or Voina-dega dega , at an altitude of more than 8,000 feet, is marked by a variable temperature, and by chilly nights. The British army at a height of 10,400 feet met with four degrees of frost on 28 March. On the heights are found the rhododendrons, mosses, and lichens of the Alps. Ethnology Few eastern or African nations exhibit such various aspects as the aborigines. Descendants of Cush are locally known as Agas, or "Freemen", and still form the basis of the Abyssinian nation. On the west, they have intermarried with the ancient Berbers, and with the blacks of the Soudan, who must not be confused with the Niger, Congo, and Zambesi tribes. On the east, Semitic peoples, Arabs and Himyarites, having crossed the Red Sea in the fourth century B.C., conquered the whole eastern coast of Africa, and settled chiefly in the province called, after them, Amhara. The invasion of the Galla tribes, in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, spread through all this region, and especially towards the south. These invasions and mingling of races in all ages have resulted in such diversity of type that the neighboring Arab tribes never speak of the country but as
