Material Culture and its Ethnological Study at St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo (In response to Prof. Dr. Habil Margarita Karamihova’s the Educational Essay “Таngible Cultural Heritage: A Cinderella in the Home of Ethnology”)

Summary/Abstract: This article is a response to Prof. Dr. Habil Margarita Karamihova’s educational essay “Tangible Cultural Heritage: A Cinderella in the Home of Etnology.” The paper considers three main issues related to the ethnological study of material culture at St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Tarnovo: 1) training and research work of university lecturers in Ethnology; 2) the results of Ethnology students’ research work; and 3) the curricula in Professional Field 3.1. Sociology, Anthropology and Cultural Studies, and the academic courses on material culture included in these curricula. The article defends the opinion that material culture – a Cinderella in the home of Ethnology, – has always shone in the Ethnology study process at the University of Veliko Tarnovo; its brilliance is a merit of all former and current Ethnology lecturers, doctoral and graduate students in Ethnology.
