World Literature Since 1650

Study literature in “the most multicultural city on earth” through visits to London landmarks. Tour museums, watch plays, and see how history has influenced literature throughout time. The course, taught by UM faculty-member Al Lopez, will take students to shows at the Globe Theatre and the West End and encourage them to explore the many ethnic enclaves of the city. Students will earn 3 hours of credit for ENGL 222.
