1 Summerschool Religion in Public Spaces Course conveners: Anna Fedele, Kim Knibbe and Méadhbh McIvor Dates July 09-13, 2018 VENUE: ISCTE-University Institute of Lisbon Avenida das Forças Armadas, Room B201, Building 2 Closest Underground Station: Entrecampos This Summer School will introduce students to the ways religious pluralism can be studied ethnographically. Training of observation, reporting and writing ethnographically are all part of the program in preparation for carrying out fieldwork in Fátima, a major site of pilgrimage. Various guest lecturers will give insights from recent research on religious diversity in Southern Europe and on Religion in Public Spaces. Following the successful summer school in 2017, the Seventh International Summer school is jointly organized by the CRIA-Lisbon University Institute and the Honours College of Groningen University. The Summer Course is taught mainly through seminars and will include a fieldtrip. The seminars will be taught by academics with a strong international profile that have both empirical and theoretical expertise on their subjects. The seminars provide a space for in depth, participatory debate on the ethnographic research that the students have gotten to know through their readings and through the presentations of the seminar teachers. The readings will be distributed beforehand to prepare in advance for the seminars, enabling students to comply with the assessment requirements. Furthermore, students will have the chance to engage with the study of religion in public spaces through a fieldtrip to the famous pilgrimage place of Fátima, supervised by Anna Fedele, a specialist on pilgrimage who is currently carrying out her research in Fátima. Readings will be distributed upon request, please contact Kim Knibbe: k.e.knibbe@rug.nl The course will be taught in English Contact persons in Lisbon: General information and inscriptions: Mafalda Melo Sousa (cria@cria.org.pt) Course contents: Anna Fedele (fedele.anna@gmail.com)
