German Culture across Europe
Take courses in German art, culture, and history (taught in English) as you move from Vienna to Munich and on to Berlin. You may also opt to take any level of German language. You will enjoy seeing three of the great cities both of contemporary Europe and of European history. The program is designed for students of all backgrounds and majors. We will learn through exploration: In Vienna we trace the footsteps of Gustav Klimt, Sigmund Freud, and others in the streets and coffee houses. In Munich we try to understand how a cultural capital of Europe could give rise to avant-garde art as well as the Nazi party. In Berlin, we will explore the dynamics of a city still healing from decades of war and division while also becoming a city so essential for the future that Barack Obama spoke there before the election. For language students there will also be plenty of opportunities to practice your skills outside of the classroom!
