Radical Anthropology: an Introduction to Anthropology

RADICAL ANTHROPOLOGY: AN INTRODUCTION TO ANTHROPOLOGY
Summer 2015

Human language and symbolic culture emerged in Africa over 100,000 years ago, in a momentous and revolutionary upheaval whose echoes can still be heard in myths, fairy tales and ritual traditions from around the world. Topics this term range from the history of the family, through archaeoastronomy, climate science and mythology to the politics of sex and gender. In addition to lectures and workshops, the term features spectacular live shows by two of Britain's most celebrated performance artists, Marcus Coates (May 19) and Marisa Carnesky (June 23).

CROCHET

CROCHET
For the last four months, Ruth Rikowski has been doing a lot of crochet work. Her grandmother, Elsie Vickery, was very creative and skilled regarding crochet, and Ruth has a number of examples of her grandmother’s work – some of which we have framed and hung up in our home.
Ruth maintains that, not only does her crochet work produce pleasing products which she can wear or display in the home, but the experience of doing the work is soothing and relaxing whilst also stimulating her imagination and thinking about many topics.

Here are some examples of her work:
