Guest Lectures by Dr. Sarunas Paunksnis
 | Dr. Sarunas Paunksnis from Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania, is coming to the South Asia Institute next week, November 7-11. In the framework of an ERASMUS exchange, he will teach a number of classes both at the SAI and at the Chair of Visual and Media Anthropology at the HCTS. |
Dr.
Paunksnis obtained his PhD from SOAS and held a Fulbright fellowship
that brought him to Columbia University in New York (2010-11). In early
2016, he was a research fellow at JNU, New Delhi. His main area of
expertise is Indian film. Thoroughly grounded in critical cultural
studies, Paunksnis explores the booming film business in India and the
patterns of middle-class consumption, especially in films that project
themselves as off-mainstream.
All classes are in English language. They are open to the public, so interested students and guests are welcome!
