NCE 328 - Spain: Multicultural Faces and Footprints


4 Hour(s)
Spain has a complex culture and a rich history that has been shaped by the various groups that have inhabited the Iberian Peninsula throughout the centuries. This course will focus on the interactions between Christians, Muslims and Jews in particular, and the spaces in which these religions came together during the medieval and early modern eras. Throughout the semester we will learn of Spanish history, art, architecture and politics, and then in May we will spend two weeks visiting the cities of Madrid, Toledo, Granada, Seville and Córdoba in order to tour the palaces, cathedrals, mosques, synagogues and markets where these diverse cultures historically interacted. For the majority of the program students will live with Spanish families and will have ample opportunity to practice their Spanish skills if they opt to do so, but all families also speak English and there are no language requirements to participate in this course.

SP even years, travel in May
