Annotation
The seminar will focus on exploring 19th and 20th-century American and European art, especially its reflection in the contemporary American press. The digital library of the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. will be the primary source of information, so active English reading ability is essential.
In the WS, the seminar participants will focus on hermeneutic research and the presentation of its results through PPTX presentations. In contrast, in the LS, lectures based on the research will be given to the academic community of the KTF UK and guests.
At the same time, the text will be submitted in the form of a professional scientific article (title, keywords, abstract, annotated paper - according to IMRaD principles).
