Join professor of so
ciology Olga Shevchenko as she discusses researching and writing her book In Visible Presence. Soviet Afterlives in Family Photos. MIT Press, 2023.
Tuesday April 16, 2024. 4PM, Sawyer Library.
The Tuesday Teas series is an opportunity to engage in cross-departmental conversations about research, writing and publishing (in other words: find out the story behind a book). The Spring 2024 series brings together faculty who conducted research using a wide range of primary sources (photographs, survey data, newspapers, archival materials, oral histories) and who engaged in very different research methodologies, including visual ethnography, data analysis, ethnomusicology and historiography.
Each talk stands alone, but taken together they provide an interesting complementary perspective on the process of scholarly research and publishing.
