Dennis Browne teaches Russian language, film and culture courses, and seminars on Europe and the Balkans. Content in his courses often reflects his interest in popular culture, particularly popular music, sports, and media such as television, film and user-generated content sites on the Internet. Professor Browne is a committed advocate of study abroad experiences, and has organized and directed Short Term and Fall Semester Abroad programs to St. Petersburg, Moscow, Krasnodar, and Lake Baikal in Russia, and to Bosnia-Hercegovina, Croatia, and Serbia. In the 2008-2009 academic year, in addition to Russian language courses, he is teaching a Russian film course (Short Term, 2009), and a new course on Russian Revolutions of the 20th century (Winter, 2009).
Professor Browne has published articles and reviews on language teaching, Russian rock music, and is co-author of a book on translation and stylistics (Russian-English). Since coming to Bates, he has participated in several professional development seminars including IREX and NEA summer seminars in Russia, and a CIEE seminar in Croatia. His current research examines the sounds and images found in politically motivated user-generated video on the Internet.
