DESCRIPTION

Using southern cities as jumping off points, we will explore the culture - history, religion, arts, cuisine?of France. Our base of Aix-en-Provence, the hometown of childhood friends Cézanne and Zola, will allow us to explore the art and literature of the nineteenth century while Bordeaux and Béziers (Languedoc) will introduce students to France's viticulture. From the history of the Gauls to cinema, we'll visit Cannes, Grasse, Carcassonne and others for a broad glimpse of the complexity of France's rich cultural heritage.
