The Department of
European and Mediterranean Cultures is the
academic home of the
major in
European and Mediterranean Cultures.
This interdisciplinary major introduces the
student to a broad span of human action,
accomplishment and experience in both public
and private spaces, extending back to
Antiquity and culminating in our own time.
Its interdisciplinary
curriculum investigates particularities and
distinctions in the long and intertwined
histories of Europe and the Mediterranean
world. The social and cultural histories of
nations and cities are explored, to seek out
the specific local development of
intellectual, artistic, religious and
economic life, and to comprehend the links
and transfer of ideas and influences between
the areas and sites which are surveyed...

George Wanklyn was interviewed and filmed in
December for a TV production in an American
series produced by The History Channel
entitled "Cities of the Underworld." He
will appear in the episode dedicated to Paris,
one of a number of European and non-European
cities selected for the series. The
episode is scheduled to be aired in the
spring. Professor Wanklyn's interview
dealt particularly with the momentous
transformations of Paris in the Second
Empire. In speaking about the important
"collector sewer" of Bosquet, he put in a plug
for AUP, above ground. |
