The core course is an interdisciplinary study in the first half of the semester. By applying the themes of Memory and Identity to a specific European destination (choose one of the above), the core course will enable you to

• Explore the past and present of a particular region acting as a case study for cultural-historical reflection and analysis
• Identify and classify major works of art and literature originating from the culture and region examined
• Critique the contemporary life and culture through a comparative lens and first-hand observation
• Provide an overview of the historical development of the region and introduce you to current social trends
• Comprehend the act of travelling itself within a European context
