Culture Courses

Dear Colleagues:
1) Has anyone ever gathered information on courses in Russian and other
Slavic cultures? If so, can someone please direct me to the source? If not,
is there any interest in an attempt to assemble such a source? (I. e., what
courses and kinds of courses are taught where and by whom (past and
present), catalog descriptions or course justifications for curriculum
committees, whether oriented to language or general humanities students,
high culture or byt, etc.)
2) I would appreciate it if someone in art history (Russian) or someone
knowledgeable could answer questions on ca. a dozen Russian paintings. This
request does not entail research or reference. The questions have to do with
statements about paintings which an art historian would be able to answer
off the cuff, and about which a generalist-culturologist would do well to
seek expert confirmation (or correction).
3) I dug out a batch of old Russian culture course outlines, exams, catalog
descriptions, and information handouts. Please let me know if they might be
helpful to you in your course planning, and I'll send them on. (Please
provide regular mail address.)
