AGSD SOCC 360 - Clash of Cultures in Paris & France

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

How different is France to the rest of the world? Is there such a thing as the French exception: l'exception francaise? Basing itself on both French (in translation) and English-speaking sources, this course will select a number of areas where the French are perceived as being a little different to their European and Trans-Atlantic neighbors. There will be an emphasis on history, as a mirror through which much of the present can be seen, contextualized and thus better understand. The class will also use the city of paris and its surroundings through tours and visits as a manner to illustrate some of the topics covered. Students will finish the course with a deeper understanding of France, its history and its 'exceptions'. AUC Designation: Cl
