Kasarmutoast professoriks

Professor Emeritus Heino Siigur (b. 1930) has recorded his educational path and professional career in a book (250 pages + illustrations). The author presents memories of his childhood in Sindi, his time at Sindi Primary School (1938–1944), secondary school in Pärnu (1944–1949), studies at the University of Tartu (1949–1954), and his working years at the University of Tartu (1954–1995), as well as his activities after retirement. The text is laconic and rather restrained in emotion, guiding the reader into the everyday life of challenging times. His apt observations of the people around him and of the era provide valuable material, especially for those interested in legal studies and contemporary history. The main part of the book focuses on his studies and work at the university.
