Literature in Greece

Visit the great historical sites of Athens and the surrounding area while communicating with modern Greeks in one of the world’s major cities.

You’ll be challenged to explore Greek mythology and legends, as well as Greek drama. The professors will also show you representations of ancient and modern Greek life through literature and film in an effort to share with you the rich heritage of Greek culture.

A student says: “The Schroeders not only taught us in class, they taught us while we traveled. They didn't sit back and watch; they experienced Greece with us.”
