Tower Bridge in London

See why London inspired, and continues to inspire, some of the greatest writing in English.  

Learn how you can travel to London this summer (June 8 – July 3, 2023) with UI Professor Blaine Greteman at one of four upcoming information sessions.  

Built on the bones of a Roman and medieval village, London is the center of a modern film industry, a capital of international finance and technology, and yet Shakespeare and Chaucer would still be able to recognize the shape of many of its winding streets.  

In addition to readings and writing that will fill the standard requirements for an undergraduate Shakespeare course, this class will offer a study abroad experience in which you get to know Shakespeare’s England through performances, readings, excursions to museums, and more.  

Information Sessions:  

Wednesday, February 1 | 4 - 5 p.m. | Attend via Zoom 

Thursday, February 2 | 11 a.m. - 12 p.m. | Attend via Zoom 

Tuesday, February 7 | 4 - 5 p.m. | Attend via Zoom 

Thursday, February 9  | 3 - 4 p.m. | Attend via Zoom
