GREAT LIT GATHERING: a guided learning experience
Wednesdays in January (Jan 3 – Jan 31)
6pm-7:30pm
Location provided after registration
Here is your chance to tackle some of the classics you have always meant to read or re-visit!
Come be a part of this intimate group learning experience led by a professional comparative literature teacher in a private home. This is your launchpad to the classics! You might even think of it as the college course you wish you’d had.
You will learn about the historical context of the classic and get an overview of the different schools of literary criticism. Important themes, biographical information, and literary stylewill also be addressed.
There will also be time for questions and discussion.
The carefully selected syllabus features a thematic thread that will touch something in all of us. So whether this is a challenge for you or an indulgence, we are sure you will enjoy the experience.
The one-time fee for all 5 sessions is only $35.
