Grab your sandals and walking stick, and get on the road! With Chaucer’s Canterbury pilgrims and Jack Kerouac’s Beat Poet buddies, with Shakespeare’s seafaring Pericles, with American Indians bound for sacred mountains, with Jon Krakaeur following an ill-fated explorer into the Alaskan wilderness, with Paul Simon to Graceland, and across the Australian outback with Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, we’ll go in spirit on a semester-long literary road trip. (Baccalaureate-level writing course, 4 credits.)
