Carpatho-Rusyn Summer Program

[Krafcik, Patricia]

Dear SEELANGers! Linguists, Slavic Area Studies folks, and Slavists in general: 

Are you interested in having a unique experience this summer? You can by participating in
a one-of-a-kind opportunity  to acquaint yourselves with the culture, history, and language 
of an East Slavic people located on the border between East and West Slavic worlds.

The Institute for Rusyn Language and Culture at Presov University in Presov, Slovakia, is still 
taking applications for its second annual three-week Studium Carpato-Ruthenorum International 
Summer School for Rusyn Language and Culture from June 12-July 3, 2011. Intensive daily language 
study and history lectures with parallel instruction offered in English and Rusyn form the basic 
curriculum. The program also offers fascinating excursions to the famous Carpathian wooden churches, 
museums, and folk festivals, as well as pysanky and folksong workshops. This is the only opportunity 
of its kind to study the Rusyn language, codified in Slovakia in 1995. For further detailed information, 
a daily schedule, and an application, go to www.carpathorusynsociety.org.  

If you have questions, please feel free to email me at krafcikp at evergreen.edu.
