In addition to giving seminars in The Netherlands, Italy, and France, my time at NIAS was devoted to completing work on three projects. Most importantly, I worked on my book on Venice, tentatively entitled Venice: the Present in the Past, which is now nearing completion. I also worked on various Melanesian and Papua New Guinea topics.
