Literature
London is arguably one of the coolest places on earth. For centuries, London has inspired authors, poets, and playwrights. Virtually every street has its place in literary history, from Blake's chartered streets near the Thames to the ethnic fabric of Brick Lane described by Zadie Smith. London is, and always has been, a hub where great minds meet, and find inspiration in the life of the city.
In the course of six lectures and a long weekend in London, we will explore the city of London in literature, history, art, and fashion in order to understand London as a multicultural city with a diverse population and a community of communities, and relate the realities of London's past and present to literature, art, and fashion from the past five centuries.
