Course Description

Learn about a particular national culture by taking a guided tour of its literature and film. You don't need to speak a language other than English to take this exciting course, and you will gain the fresh, subtle understanding that comes from integrating across different forms of human expression. Some of the issues that will be illuminated by looking at culture through the lens of literature and film include family structures and how they are changing, national self-perceptions, pivotal moments in history, economic issues, social change and diversity.

Thank you for registering for a Senior Scholars course! The Senior Scholars program is an auditing program for Temple graduates, as well as their spouses or partners, and other friends of Temple, age 50+. As an auditor, you will not receive a grade or academic credit for this course. A few days before the start of the semester, you will receive an email confirming your enrollment and providing more information on how to get started in your course. Please be advised that all Senior Scholars courses are open to Temple undergraduate students first.

This online course is scheduled from May 15 to June 26, 2024. There are no set meeting dates or times and your instructor is Alexa Firat. 

You have registered for an online course.  If your course does not have a specific date and time, you will not login to a regular Zoom meeting and will learn at your own pace with the information posted on Canvas. Each course will be a little different, and further information will come from your instructor as the course gets closer.
