Dear Anna,



The most recent syllabus is here:
http://www.walterrichmond.net/2012/08/syllabus-for-supernatural-in-slavic.html



I have to admit I wasn’t really happy with the way in which the literature
worked into the course this time. The students themselves said they wished
they’d learned more about the folklore. Before I offer it again I think I’m
going to have to reread a lot of the texts I used to initially create the
course and put more emphasis on the myths.



The presentations at the end were my favorite part of the course. Students
came up with all sorts of myths from around the world, many I’d never heard
of.



Best,

Walt

Dear Walt,

"The Supernatural in Slavic Culture" sounds like a fascinating course. Is
there a sample of its syllabus somewhere on line for one to take a look?

Best,

Anna

It's a 200 level course. No prerequisites. Taught in English.

Not specifically required for the Minor, but since we have so few offerings
a student minoring in Russian has to take it.
