New Courses for January 2012
** NOW PUBLISHED! **
Mid-December 2011: Seasonal Greetings to you!
Christmas is fast approaching and I have just published my courses due to start in January. As you can see, I am only running two courses here on the Fylde as I am busy lecturing in Cumbria during early 2012.
I am running further courses before Easter and I will publish the topics and dates by the end of January. As the courses are now of six weeks duration I can fit two sessions of courses into each ‘term’.
The New Courses page gives further details, but, in a nutshell, the courses are as follows:
Bispham – we are travelling back to Ancient Egypt with a study of the early pyramids, temples and tombs of the pharaohs. We finish with a survey of the major buildings of the New Kingdom.
St Annes – this term we will be looking at Hadrian, one of the most enigmatic of the Roman emperors. Besides building the Roman frontier in Northern England, Hadrian spent most of his 20 year reign actively strengthening the provinces. We examine both historical and archaeological sources in order to uncover the real man and his character.
You will also note that I have not inluded any shorter (taster) and weekend courses as yet – these courses will follow soon. Watch this space!
Have a Merry Christmas and a good start to 2012! I hope to see you soon!
Jim
