I've greatly enjoyed my time in Sicily and will be sorry to leave this stunning island. I feel that the island's natural landscape possesses such a revitalizing atmosphere that I found even the local birds stopped flying once and while to take a dip in the pool.
Our Spring 2014 course on Sicily covered three thousand years of history and culture (Greek, Roman Arab, Norman Spanish and Italian). We read Virgil, Cicero, Ibn Hawkal, Al-Idrisi, Verga, Pirandello, Sciascia, Maraini... We watched The Leopard, Nuovomondo and much more. We worked hard, and had a lot of fun. Now we are ready to visit the places we talked about during a long Massachusetts winter. Follow us!
