The Idea of the City:
Anthropology and Urban Form
STDA 2010
Study the way in which cities are shaped by the people who built them and how they influence the
culture and identity of the people who use them. Through a field based examination of various
aspects of urban form, we will explore the cultural identities of the inhabitants of two of the world’s
great cities: Munich and Florence. The course combines anthropology, art, architecture, history and
cultural studies in order to interpret the relationships between urban form and the nature of urban
existence from the foundation of these cities until the present.

Fine Arts in London:
Past and Present
STDA 2000
Examine and experience the range of fine arts available in a world city through this program. World
cities offer a vision, quality and variety of arts unavailable to most of us. We will explore a variety
of artistic expressions such as theatre, the visual arts, architecture and gardens which will help us
understand how London created and incorporated arts from around the world into its own aesthetic
vision.
