Learning outcomes
|
The course will provide students with orientation in the current methodology as well as theoretical points of departures of European and world archaeology. An overview of archaeological paradigms within the 20th century will serve as a base for comprehension of the current plurality of archaeological thinking. We will deal with definition and assessment of the romantic, evolutionistic and cultural-historical paradigms, with the birth of the "New archaeology" (processualism) and the reaction in the form of the post-processualism and "interpretive archaeology". The course will approach archaeology as a rapidly growing discipline taking an important position in the complex, multi-cultural world of today.
