Course Description: Bel canto, meaning "fine singing," exemplified the flowering of Italian opera in the first half of the 19th Century. The Romantic movement influenced Italian opera as it swept the boards in opera houses throughout Europe. The operas of Rossini, Donizetti, and Bellini are characteristic of the style. This course will examine how Romanticism influenced opera, with an emphasis on the bel canto canon. We will explore the creative process, production techniques, profile the great singers, and hear glorious bel canto performances from modern-day singers.

Course Description: We will survey six modes of epic in modern times (1800 to the present): (1) epics of deep civility; (2) amoral aspirations--beyond good and evil; (3) humanist revolt and devastating warfare; (4) social-psychological dislocation; (5) meaningful interplay of cultures; (6) visionary epic. The challenge of this ambitious study is in determining -- as a group -- whether epic is possible in the modern era, and which writers have achieved such a standard.

Course Description: Traveling has many rewards, whether it's a day trip to a nearby historical site or an extended vacation to a faraway place. However, taking these trips can present many challenges: with more people traveling, senior travelers perhaps being limited by health conditions, and the restrictions that now exist for the protection of travelers. There are many ways to simplify our travel and this class will focus on how to prepare for a safe and easy trip, how to manage your time and your belongings while on your trip, and follow-up activities once you return. The instructor has learned many techniques that you might find useful and she plans for this to be an interactive experience so all of us senior travelers can share travel tips and experiences with each other.

Course Description: "Brexit"-the departure of the United Kingdom from the European Union-does not exist in a vacuum: it has both long historical roots and potentially significant impacts for the global economy, political alignments in Europe, and transatlantic relations with the US. This course will trace the origins, process, and possible ramifications of "Brexit" in the context of political dynamics, decisions, and institutions that emerged in Europe after the end of the Cold War and German reunification.

Course Description: The movements recognized with terms such as Arts & Crafts, Aestheticism, Art Nouveau, Secessionism, and Jugendstil were part of an attempt to change the architecture, decorative arts (furniture, pottery ceramics, fabrics, etc.), book design, gardening and lifestyle in the period c.1870 to World War I. Originating in England with the work and writings of John Ruskin and William Morris, it spread to the continent with designers such as Hector Guimard, Otto Wagner and others and across the ocean to America and styles such as the Prairie School and individuals such as Gustav Stickley, Louis Comfort Tiffany and Greene & Greene.

Course Description: Johann Sebastian Bach dedicated his towering musical monuments to the glory of God alone and the refreshment of the Spirit. In this course we will seek to experience the incredible breadth and depth of a few of his great works through listening to recorded passages and viewing performances on film, when available. After first becoming acquainted with the elements of his style as found in his keyboard music, we will move on to his concertos, sonatas, suites, and sacred vocal music. Hopefully, we will acquire an ever-deeper understanding of Bach's masterpieces and develop further our skills as informed listeners.

Course Description: The American Civil War was a bitterly fought contest over a 4-year period. Most historians acknowledge that Confederate General Robert E. Lee had superior leaders. However, beginning in the summer of 1863 the Union began winning major battles and turned the tide against Lee and his armies. The lectures will be approximately 30-minutes in duration, including PowerPoint slides, followed by 30-minute YouTube videos featuring battles won by Generals McLellan, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Thomas, and Chamberlain. Students can then decide which side may arguably have had the greater leadership.

Course Description: Europe after 1914 descended into the horror of two world wars, the birth of communism and the rise of fascism. How did artists respond to these events? The course will examine some of the key three-dimensional works of art from four sculptors in central Europe: Wilhelm Lehmbruck and Kathe Kollwitz in Germany; Imre Varga in Hungary; and Constantin Brancusi in Rumania. This is not a history of art course, but rather an art in history course. The focus will be on certain figurative sculptures and monuments, both personal and public, which reflect the deepest unspoken thoughts of the people; not usually covered in standard history books.

Course Description: This course is an inquiry into how to define evil, followed by a study of its symptomatology, etiology, and epidemiology. Evil will be examined from sociological, psychological, biological, and theological perspectives. Both personal evil and evil done by groups, tribes, and nations will be considered. We will attempt to account for the evil of both psychopaths and ordinary, law-abiding citizens. Topics will include narcissism, careerism, good and bad values, and our penchant for thinking in abstractions. Finally, we will ask if evil can be prevented.

of Israel's military conflicts, and will touch on the historical
origins of surrounding countries, and the Suez
Canal. It will also cover issues of water, arms, natural
resources, religion, and regional alliances. It then will
examine Israel's relations with its neighbors, along
with threats to, and opportunities for, peaceful coexistence.

only sparingly and tangentially.

Recommended text for the play: Measure for Measure, Arden Shakespeare, 3rd Series, A.R. Braunmuller and Robert N. Watson, ed.
-
Course Description: One of Shakespeare's "problem plays," Measure for Measure is an unsettling meditation on the use of power in public life and the role that personal morality should play in governance. This dark comedy's debate on these topics both intrigues and disturbs contemporary audiences. This class will explore these themes through lecture and discussion. We will be aided by viewing a video of the play in each session.

Course Description: Rarely is the effectiveness and efficiency of non-profit Boards equivalent to the talent represented on that Board. Too often, the total is less than the sum of the parts. Smart, accomplished, dedicated people find themselves confused and frustrated by Board service. In turn, Boards are often unproductive and wasteful of their member's skills and talents. Much of this can be avoided if Board members better understand non-profit governance, their role as a Board member, and Board dynamics. This course offers guidelines for potential Board members to help promote the efficiency of the Board, and to maximize their effectiveness and enjoyment of Board service.

Course Description: Among other things, the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020 resulted in the most immediate, most severe challenge to our Capitalism-based economic system since the Great Depression. Within two months, at least 16 million people were unemployed, and many small businesses shuttered. Normal Capitalistic responses seemed inadequate, and the Government stepped in with a $2 trillion rescue package. When the pandemic has passed, what will the new "Normal" look like? It seems inevitable that the way we apply Capitalism, post pandemic, will change. What should be the first priority for change?

Course Description: The Cold War ended almost three decades ago and, for most of us, thoughts of nuclear war. Largely unnoticed in the intervening years has been the proliferation of nuclear weapons and their reemergence as a vital element of statecraft and power politics. This course will address the unique characteristics of nuclear weapons and ongoing efforts to address their use. We will discuss international treaties, weapons proliferation, new technologies and changes in deterrence theories in the face of non-state actors.

Course Description: In this lecture course we will consider techniques
that can help us maintain our independence as we
age, paying particular attention to how balance and
strength change over time. Falls and dizziness are
among the leading causes of physician visits among
older people, and the fear of falling is a major factor
in people losing their independence. Everyone hears
that exercise is beneficial. However, most of us are
either "too busy," "too afraid to fall," or "don't know
which exercises to do." This course will provide
knowledge and exercises to help maintain safety and
independence. Though movement and exercises will
be discussed, actual exercise will not be a part of this
course.
