Tales of Travel by Henry James\, Elizabeth Spencer and Elizabeth Von Arnim DESCRIPTION:This event series\, held April 1\, 8\, and 15\, is sponsored by the Office of Alumni Engagement and is FREE for UNCG alumni! To register\, click here. \n\n\n\nThis spring\, let’s take a trip abroad with authors Henry James\, Elizabeth Spencer\, and Elizabeth Von Arnim as our guides. Our European tour will include three famous tales: James’s novella\, Daisy Miller; Mississippi writer (and later Chapel Hill resident) Elizabeth Spencer’s novella\, The Light in the Piazza; and Elizabeth Von Arnim’s short novel\, The Enchanted April. In the two famous novellas by James and Spencer\, we will explore with our American heroines\, Daisy Miller (from New York) and mother and daughter\, Margaret and Clara Johnson (from Winston-Salem)\, both Switzerland and Italy; and with Von Arnim meet a unique quartet of British women who\, for an array of personal reasons\, take up residence in a medieval castle on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. Of course\, our heroines quickly discover that a trip to Europe is not a romantic escape or simply about sightseeing. While on their travels all must navigate risk-filled situations and master game-playing with those they meet abroad. How do they fare? How are they changed forever by their European excursions? Come discover their fates on our literary springtime trip to Europe.  \n\n\n\nElizabeth Von Arnim’s The Enchanted April  \n\n\n\nHenry James’ Daisy Miller  \n\n\n\nElizabeth Spencer’s The Light in Piazza  \n\n\n\nThis course is part of Emeritus Society course offerings.
