Fées,
fous et sorcières : le Moyen Âge des rires et des larmes
Rejoignez prof. Sophie pour un cours sur les marginaux de la période médiévale : les fées, les fous et les sorcières, les hérétiques, etc.
Nous verrons comment les définitions de la marginalité évoluent et se fixent à travers la culture textuelle et iconographique. Notre panorama commencera à l’époque antique avec la fête des Saturnales et se prolongera jusqu’au XVIIe siècle avec les bûchers de sorcières. C’est donc à l’exploration d’un long Moyen Âge que Sophie vous convie.
Les châteaux de France
France is very famous for its magnificent, original, and unusual castles. Prof. Gigi Kuhn will share a creative selection of French castles by historical and architectural style, offering a unique experience through different eras of French history. Students will discover the many styles of famous French castles in various regions and present their favorite style in the final class. Travel virtually to discover castle treasures in France!
