Scope and content
This series consists of course files containing both draft and typed lectures as well as course materials such as outlines, reading lists and assignments. His entire teaching career and the evolution of his interests and expertise are well documented in this series which includes courses taught at Harvard University (1965-1970), Rutgers University (1970-1972) and the University of Toronto Department of Anthropology (1972 - ). There are also some early course files for African Studies and Women’s Studies.
Of note, is Lee’s ANT 363 Origin of the State which he also taught at the Toronto Marxist Institute (1982, 1985). This series contains his lectures but also a typescript for an unpublished book based on the course content. He developed a course around his research around 9/11 and later around his interest in HIV/Aids in southern Africa. By the 2000s, he was teaching The Anthropology of Health, HIV Aids in Africa and a Medical Anthropology Graduate Seminar.
This series also contains a small number of files Lee kept on the graduate students he supervised. These are restricted.
