Course Description:
England and Ireland are countries with long storied histories and vibrant literary presents. In this class, we'll explore London and Dublin through short readings from great British and Irish writers. As part of our adventure, we'll criss cross London and Dublin visiting all the great literary hangouts: in London -- the Globe Theatre, the British Library, Charles Dickens' home, and the Sherlock Holmes Museum – and in Dublin, the Writer's Museum, and James Joyce Museum. In addition to taking literary tours in both cities, we'll visit street markets, gardens, and many famous museums. Without a doubt, this course will be LIT – and open for all students at any level.
