Italian Language and Culture
Conducted in English
Italian Language and Culture is an interdisciplinary course which concentrates on rapidly developing a basic command of Italian while introducing the student to aspects of Italian history, culture, and cuisine, and the realities of contemporary Italy. Students will have opportunity for on-site learning with their instructors through a series of walking tours and visits in Florence, a cooking and wine appreciation course, and a two-day trip to Rome. In addition, students will have the opportunity to view classic and current Italian films outside of class time. This course is for beginners; no prior knowledge of Italian is required. Includes wine and cooking class.
