Spring Interim 2008: England
During this interim class, we will study the relationship between economic and social class and the way heroes are seen and represented. We will disuss an Aurthurian Romance while sitting at the grave of Aurthur and Guinevere. We will tour Lond to get a better understanding of the setting of the Sherlock Holmes mystery we will read. Students will experience both the charms of the small English villages and the excitement of one of the greatest cities in the world. By spending two weeks in England, the students will have an opportunity to experience a foreign country and to earn three credits.
We will start by flying into London and then head out to the east of England. Here, we will visit beautiful seaside villages and exciting vacation centers. We will see Christian shrines and pagan ritual sites. When we return to London, we will have several days to explore the greatest city in the world. Art and history museums, playhouses, and poetry cafes, Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus: the students will have the opportunity to see and explore all of these famous places.
