HIST 346i - A Tale of Two Cities

“A Tale of Two Cities” is a famous novel by Charles Dickens about Paris and London at the time of the French Revolution. In this travel/study course by the same name students will spend ten days in each of these two cities during the interterm period. Instructors knowledgeable about these cities will offer tours, museum visits and theatre outings on a regular basis. However, at the center of this course is a self-chosen and self-designed research project that looks at some aspect of the life in and history of London and Paris. Alternatively, History majors can arrange to do research on their Senior Seminar papers. In both cases, students will closely coordinate their research with the faculty member directing the course in each city. Fee: TBD. (Offered interterm.) 3 credits
