(See English below)
Freuen Sie sich mit uns auf Dr. Patrick Hällzon (Uppsala University) und seinen Online-Vortrag am 28. Mai 2026 ab 18 Uhr (Berliner Zeit) zum Thema „The use of domestic and wild animals in public performances in the oases of Eastern Turkestan„.
This online presentation deals with public performances involving animals in Eastern Turkestan during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Several traditional pastimes in the region, such as pigeon fancying, falconry, and various games related to horsemanship fit into this description. The focus of this presentation, however, will be on the usage of domestic and wild animals in performed entertainment in public places.
