Italy and Greece: Rhetoric, Architecture, and Food

From the ancient city to the kitchen, “Rhetoric, Architecture, and Food” investigates how the preparation of meals, the production of public spaces, and the art of persuasion all helped to shape the classical world. Study during your spring semester in Athens and Rome, with on-site lectures that give plenty of time to savor the city without the summertime press of tourists. Good itineraries to Greece and Italy normally hit the highlights, but this exceptional program allows time for exploring and visiting (and revisiting) well beyond the trodden paths—and without the noisy crowds. Did we mention the architecture, the pasta . . . the gelato?

The academic goals of this program focus on General Education curriculum, drawing on the incredible breadth of the Greco-Roman classroom. We will start in Athens, travel through Santorini, and end the semester in Rome. Once in Rome, we will complete trips to Napoli, Pompeii, Amalfi, Venice, and Florence.
