Rome Summer Graduate Seminar 2004
This six-credit graduate seminar is designed to bring
together the disciplines of aesthetics and cultural studies. In its
interdisciplinary thrust, the seminar is intended to serve as a
foundation for advanced study in the human sciences and to reflect
the most current trends of thought in post-modern culture. The seminar
convenes during the month of June at Temple University's campus in
Rome, the Villa Caproni.
The Temple Seminars in Art and Culture welcome applications
from advanced undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral students in
fields such as literature, film studies, philosophy, art, and social
theory. The seminar entails an intensive program of class work, field
trips and guest lectures. The city of Rome is used extensively as a
resource. The Villa Caproni overlooks the River Tiber and is located
just off the Piazza del Popolo and the Borghese Gardens. Accommodations
can be arranged in a Temple student Residenza or students can make
their own living arrangements in advance. All classes are taught in
English.
Information on the 2004 program, including the dates of the seminar,
the topic, a prospective reading list, and other details will be forthcoming.
