Oxford, England,
February 26, 2013—Why not learn something new on your vacation next summer, and
why not learn it at that most hallowed of learning institutions, the University
of Oxford? The Oxford Experience is a one-week summer course open to all,
with no requirements, no exams and no papers. The program runs
from June 30 to August 10, 2013 at Christ Church, the most prestigious
and beautiful of Oxford colleges. Here participants live in rooms where
English prime ministers and poets once lived, dine on High Table in the
magnificent Hall featured in Harry Potter films, and learn about some 60 varied
subjects.
These subjects range from The Age of Churchill, Oxford Murder, The Victorian and Edwardian Home, the Gothic Novel, Enjoying the Cotswolds and The Life and Times of Richard III, to An Introduction to Particle Physics, From Rasputin to Putin, Political Philosophy, the Operas of Verdi and the Pleasures of Poetry. Classes, with a maximum of 12 students, are made up of Anglophiles from all over the world, with the youngest in their thirties, the oldest in their nineties.
