Having covered the preliminary practicalities recently, I’m delighted to announce our programme for Autumn 2024.
As you all know by now, we’re ever-eager to respond to your requests and suggestions, and as Robert is doing the day-to-day prep and delivery of each term’s courses, he also regularly revisits our “wish-list” to shape up longer-term prospects. The stars have aligned particularly well this time - each and every offering has been explicitly requested by at least several of you. Your wish is our command!!
So without further ado, I call upon our trusty Fanfare Phalanx, as I present unto you, O Esteemed Denizens of Wright History…
First, Autumn’s ten-week “spine” courses:
At the Crossroads: A history of Eastern Europe
Next up, two five-week courses:
And finally, voila the first of Autumn’s Short & Sweet courses.*
*[As is traditional, we’ll announce more for later in the term further down the line.]
The Hittites: Lost empire of the ancient world
So there, as Robert is wont to say, we have it! We hope that you’re as excited about these as we are!
