Dr. Saule Satayeva, recently retired as Deputy Director of the Central State Archive of Cinema, Photo and Sound Recording Documents of the Republic of Kazakhstan, is now offering an online course in English based on the history and culture of Central Asia, covering both pre-Soviet and Soviet periods through cinema, photo, and audio documents.
He is a Fulbright alumna (2112-2013) from American University in Washington, DC where he conducted research on American travelers to Kazakhstan in the 19th and first half of the 20th century. During his Fulbright year, he was invited to present his research titled "Illuminating the Kazakh Nomadic Culture: American Travelers to Kazakhstan in the Late 19th and Early 20th Century." Satayeva presented this work at Columbia, Texas, Maryland, Harvard, Indiana, and George Washington Universities, as well as in courses at American University. He also presented at the Smithsonian Institution (Museum of Natural History, Recovering Voices Program), the Wilson Center (Kennan Institute), the Library of Congress, and the Mongolian Embassy in Washington, DC during their Annual Mongolian Studies Conference.
He is eager to share his knowledge on Central Asian history and culture through his specialized course. The course will be available remotely as Dr. Satayeva teaches from Kazakhstan. Information on the course as well as the syllabus can be found at the link below:
