Early and Medieval
Britain:
From Roman “Britannia” to the Coming of the Tudors
Concentrating each year on a specific period of British history and culture, British Studies At Oxford combines a wide-range of seminar courses in Humanities and Social Science subjects taught by British and American faculty, with a program of lectures, workshops, study excursions to essential sites, and theater visits. The aim is to produce an intense and creative educational experience which is both absorbing and enormous fun. Offered annually since 1970, it has been held since 1980 in St. John’s College in Oxford.
British Studies At Oxford is a summer program offered by Rhodes College in affiliation with “The Associated Colleges of the South”.
Michael Leslie (Dean)
Please note: British Studies At Oxford is designed for college-age and older participants.
