Hopkins Rome (Writing Seminars) Summer Study Abroad Info Session
Details
Students will take two 3-credit classes, for a total of 6 credits. The first of these, a creative writing workshop led by the program director, would carry a W/FA1 designation and count as an upper-level elective toward the Writing Seminars major. The second class would be a 3-credit of the student’s choosing, taught by a faculty member of John Cabot University.
This summer program offers both new and experienced writers a chance to spend five weeks in Rome, making an artistic exploration of the Eternal City that inspired Keats, Shelley, Goethe, and, more recently, Jhumpa Lahiri: the city of which E.M. Forster wrote, in Where Angels Fear to Tread, “In Rome one had simply to sit still and feel.”
Students are welcome to work in prose, poetry, or both.
