Dr. Alan Blackstock is offering a course that will explore the work of several of the most prominent English writers of the nineteenth century and visit the places where this work was created and set: the Lake District of Wordsworth and Coleridge, the Yorkshire of the Brontë sisters, Jane Austen’s Bath, and the London of Charles Dickens, Oscar Wilde, and George Bernard Shaw. We will visit the residences of these writers and associated historical sites, museums, and art galleries, as well as attending related theatrical performances. The course will be broadcast for two weeks at the beginning of the first summer block, to provide orientation to the period, authors, works, and details of the trip, after which we will spend approximately eighteen days in England. The remainder of the class will be conducted online to allow students to stay on in England or travel elsewhere in Europe if they wish. For more information, see the link at: http://www.usu.edu/studyabroad/programs/prgm.cfm?prog_id=87.
Participating graduate students would negotiate a 6000 level Directed Studies contract with Dr. Blackstock. You should also make sure that any credits you take with a Study Abroad experience are cleared with your Supervisory Committee as being acceptable for your Program of Study.
