London and Florence: Arts in Context
|
|
The London and Florence program compares the artistic achievements
of two historically prominent cities. Participants study the historical
and political context of art, architecture, literature and theatre
as well as Italian language. Visits to museums, galleries, theatres,
short trips to other areas of England and Italy, and discussions
with local scholars supplement this coursework. Students spend
eight weeks in each city and enjoy a week-long mid-semester break.
|
|
Florence
|
|
The Florence program provides an excellent opportunity to study
Renaissance painting, sculpture, architecture, history, and literature
for students interested in art, history, Romance languages and
the humanities. Italian language instruction, a studio art course,
art history courses, and courses providing a broad perspective
on Italian contributions to world civilization facilitate the
study of Florentine artistic and cultural heritage. Visits to
museums and galleries, short field trips to other cities throughout
Italy, and discussions with local scholars supplement this coursework.
Staying with Italian host families enriches participants' awareness
of modern Italian life as well as the academic study of Italian
Renaissance culture.
