A summer of study, research, and travel
July 6 – August 5, 2007
As a British Studies Program student, you can immerse yourself in a specialized course chosen from a wide range of academic disciplines for six undergraduate or
graduate semester hours.
Three semester hours are satisfied through lectures taught by eminent British scholars, artists, business leaders or government officials, and field excursions and seminars led by American professors. The remaining three semester hours are satisfied by supervised research. Credit hours are awarded by The University of Southern Mississippi, a fully accredited institution of higher learning.
The British Studies Program, now in its fourth decade, is organized by Southern Miss through an academic consortium of 12 colleges and universities (see back cover). The purpose of the consortium is to promote a more profound understanding of British culture and society among students and faculty through scholarly and educational activities.
LONDON ALIVE
Getting your bearings straight in one of the most complex and historical cities in the world is the first assignment given to every student on British Studies. London Alive will set the compass for your summer and beyond as you experience first-hand the city's geography, social complexity, rich history, commercial brilliance and unparalleled artistic collections. Veteran teachers will guide you to London's hottest tourist spots as well as to little-known gems. You'll find the best restaurants and the most affordable "good eats" in the world's most eclectic city. Moreover, our faculty will guide you through the practical ins-and-outs of navigating the city on its buses, the Underground, and on foot. We'll also acquaint you with your new neighborhood to make you feel right at home. After a week you'll feel like a veteran Londoner; out-of-towners will be asking you for directions!
RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM AND PROJECT
Finding your rightful place in today's world of rapidly exchanged ideas is a vital part of how you will experience intellectual growth on the British Studies Program. Under the guidance of your British Studies professor, you'll use your time in the UK to find and develop a critical voice for your own research interests and professional ambitions which will culminate in a final project to be completed following your return to the U.S. During the final week of the program, you’ll present a précis of your project in a poster session attended by program faculty and distinguished guests along with your fellow program participants. Whether working in Shakespearian criticism, World War II history or the geography of Britain, the symposium and final project will enable you to strengthen and showcase your scholarly credentials at a time when students are increasingly expected to conduct original research early in their academic careers. Through this project the British Studies Program wants to help you stop following and start leading within your field of scholarly interest.
STUDENT HOUSING AT KING’S COLLEGE IN THE VERY HEART OF LONDON!
British Studies Program students are housed in the King’s College hall of residence, located adjacent to Waterloo Station, the River Thames, and the South Bank Arts Complex.
Situated in the very heart of London, the residence hall provides unparalleled access to the principal attractions of the metropolis. The theatre district, Covent Garden, the Royal Festival Hall, the National Theatre, the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, and Piccadilly Circus are all within easy walking distance.
Each single student bedroom contains a desk, ample wardrobe space, a small refrigerator, and a private bathroom. Kitchens are scattered throughout the complex. Laundry facilities, a gymnasium, and the British Studies Program Office are on-site. Administrative staff and American professors accompanying the program are housed with the students.
TIME FOR TRAVEL
As part of the British Studies Program you’ll ample opportunity for travel around Britain and beyond. All British Studies courses feature some travel outside of London, and you’ll have the occasional weekend free to visit places you’ve always dreamed of seeing. In addition, British Studies features a “mini-break” that will begin immediately following academic travel outside of London with your class at the end of the third week. Students will vacate their dorm rooms during this academic travel and mini-break period; British Studies staff will arrange with our residence halls for a place to stow any luggage you don’t plan to travel with. Special travel companies in London offer substantial discounts to students and their professional advisors will offer assistance in planning and making reservations. In recent years program participants have made their way to Paris, Prague, Dublin, Barcelona, Munich, Krakow, Edinburgh, Venice, Athens, and Amsterdam. Where will YOU go?

English
Children’s British Literature
6 semester hours in ENG 497 or 597
This course will combine a survey of key works of British children’s literature with visits to actual sites related to the texts or their authors. We will read such works as Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and visit Oxford University, where Carroll taught and the real Alice lived. We will read Tom Brown’s Schooldays, tour Rugby School where the novel is set, and learn about life at one of Britain’s most elite institutions. We will study Treasure Island and A Child’s Garden of Verses and explore Edinburgh to find traces of Robert Louis Stevenson’s influences there. We will visit Great Maytham Hall in Kent to experience the home and gardens that inspired Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden, and we will visit Ashdown Forest, the setting for A.A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh books. We will travel down the Thames River and invade Toad Hall like the characters in Kenneth’s Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows. We will consider how J.M. Barrie found the inspiration for the first version of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens and how the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were shaped by their experiences at Oxford and their meetings at The Eagle and the Child pub. During our excursions throughout London, Oxford, and Edinburgh, we will see numerous sites related to J.K. Rowling’s popular Harry Potter series. The class will also have the opportunity to hear guest lectures by British scholars who are world-renowned experts in the field of children’s literature.

The Legend of King Arthur
6 semester hours in ENG 497 or 597
This course surveys the development of the Arthurian legend from its origins in early British history through its flourishing in the late Middle Ages. Five internationally-renowned British lecturers will discuss the evolution of Arthurian tales in history and in the literatures of Wales, France, and England. A three-day tour of the English and Cornish West Country will take students to Arthur's birthplace and grave, the site of Camelot and the Last Battle, the Great Hall of Winchester (where the Round Table still hangs), Stonehenge, and Glastonbury Abbey (site of the appearance of the Holy Grail). There is also a one-day trip to the medieval castle of Bodiam and a guided walk around the battlefield of Hastings. Students will be given a tour through the Royal Armouries of the Tower of London and get to try on real medieval armor. Reading assignments include an Arthurian anthology, an abridged text of Le Morte D'Arthur of Sir Thomas Malory, and a textbook by the professor.
“The Legend of King Arthur” offers an excellent program of study for the serious student interested in the literature, history, and culture of the Middle Ages. Because of the extensive walking (and some light climbing) incorporated in the field trips, certain aspects of the course might not be accessible to some handicapped students.
top
In Search of Shakespeare
6 semester hours in ENG 498 or 598
Fees include theatre tickets.
Who was William Shakespeare? And why do his literary works endure as some of the most beautiful and compelling of all time? This course will endeavor to answer these questions and present a host of others as we explore the Bard’s life, times, and dramas in historic London and Edinburgh. We will be reading, discussing, and debating five to seven plays in our seminar meetings during the program. In addition, we will attend a series of lectures and workshops with British scholars, actors, and directors to better understand the literary themes, cultural allusions, and theatrical conventions that Shakespeare incorporated into his writing. Field trips will provide an exciting backdrop for our conversations about these works and enrich our contextual knowledge of the Renaissance. The capstone experience will be an individual research project of your choosing with an opportunity to present your inquiries and preliminary conclusions.
Stroll the streets and take in the sites and sounds of Bankside, following in the footsteps of this famous playwright and his colleagues. Discover the wonder of attending a play under the stars as Renaissance audiences did in the magnificent reconstructed Globe Theater. Explore famous sites like the Museum of London, the National Portrait Gallery, and Westminster Abbey to investigate what life was like in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Visit the British Library and view a first edition copy of Shakespeare’s collected works, the 1623 Folio. Learn more about the influence of one of Shakespeare’s patrons, King James VI & I, and talk with experts in Scotland about the real King Macbeth. Tour the Bard’s birthplace, Stratford-upon-Avon, and attend a show at the Royal Shakespeare Theater, home of one of the most renowned acting companies in the world. All of these experiences, just to name a few, will illuminate Shakespeare’s works as complex texts, captivating performances, critical subjects, and aesthetic marvels

History
World War II
6 semester hours in HIS 499 or HIS 599 & 799
“They were the soldiers of democracy. They were the men of D-Day, and to them we owe our freedom.”
—Stephen Ambrose
World War II was the pivotal event of the 20th century, laying waste to two continents and changing the world forever. Participants in this course will have a unique chance to learn about the events of World War II from a European perspective. Distinguished British historians, including professors from the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, present lectures. Areas of concentration include the fall of France, the Battle of Britain, the Russian front, women at war, and the Holocaust. Considerable attention is given to Operation Overlord, the D-Day invasion of Normandy. The class crosses the English Channel to Normandy for a four-day tour of the battle area. Much like the events depicted in Saving Private Ryan, we splash ashore at Omaha Beach and trace the footsteps of American soldiers inland to victory at the Falaise Pocket. We follow in the footsteps of America’s “greatest generation.”
The class will visit Duxford Airbase, which houses the world’s largest collection of military aircraft, many of which will take to the sky during our visit. We also visit the Imperial War Museum, which houses everything from a Soviet T-34 tank to an atom bomb. Each student will have the opportunity to conduct primary research in the Public Record Office of the Imperial War Museum, allowing the student to experience World War II through the eyes of the participants. The World War II course offers participants a chance to learn of war in every way, from the traditionally academic to the intensely personal.

Journalism
Introduction to British Journalism
6 semester hours in JOU 499 or 599
One way to understand Britain is to understand its journalism. From racy tabloids that splash pictures of topless women across their pages, to raucous commentary that often sparks litigation, the British print and broadcast media differ substantially in practice and content from their American counterparts. Students learn the who, what, and why of these differences through compelling tours and lectures that touch on the entire spectrum of journalism practice, including public relations and advertising. British journalists offer the class personal tours of important national newspapers (the staid Times, the racy Sun), expert lecturers delve into the history of Fleet Street on a walking tour, and public relations professionals explain why PR in London really is different. Trips usually include a guided tour of the press gallery in the Houses of Parliament, a walk through the BBC Television Centre, and captivating visits with renowned journalists at the pinnacle of their profession. You’ll meet the London dance critic who’s lunched with Mikhail Baryshnikov, the American correspondent nearly ejected from 10 Downing Street, and PR professionals who represent Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Library Science
British Libraries and Information Centers
6 semester hours in LIS 480/487 or 580/587
“This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle …
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
Shakespeare, "King Richard II", Act 2 scene 1
Have you ever dreamed of being in the ‘sceptred isle’ of Chaucer, Shakespeare, Kipling, Lewis Carroll, C.S. Lewis, Jane Austin, and J.K. Rowling – of strolling along the Thames or through the verdant British countryside?
Spend a month in the United Kingdom earning credit while learning about famous authors and collections. Distinguished British scholars and lecturers will provide instruction as well as guided tours of a variety of British libraries, museums, and archives.
Students will have the opportunity to accompany instructors to sites such as Oxford and Stratford - and time to explore sites of interest on their own. An historic recreation of the Globe Theatre is within walking distance on the south bank of the Thames and you may purchase tickets to a Shakespeare production. The King’s College dorm is a short distance from Waterloo Station, where you may take the bullet train to Paris for a day or catch a tube to the theatre district in the evening, or to Paddington Station or to King’s Cross Station, site of Harry Potter’s “Platform 9 ¾” .
Students will choose from one of three specialty tracts: children’s literature & collections, adult literature & collections, or museums and archives. In addition to the scheduled lectures and tours, students will be required to keep a reflective journal of visits to a required number of sites related to their specialty and to complete a research paper on an approved topic.

Political Science
Contemporary British Politics
6 semester hours in PS 499, or in
PS 599 & 799
The British political experience comprises one of the richest and most exciting in the Western world. From Magna Carta (1215) to the Glorious Revolution (1689) to current debates over Northern Ireland, the monarchy, and the powerful legacy of Thatcherism, British politics is a study in vivid ideas, clashing egos, sectional rivalry, polemical attack, and profound discourse.
This course explores not only the world’s oldest parliamentary system, but also recent problems surrounding the royals, separatist movements in Scotland and Wales, the persistent “troubles” in Ireland, Britain’s vexed relationship with the European community and special one with the United States, the explosive political questions regarding race and gender issues, and many other matters. Lectures by a series of distinguished British scholars, government officials, party leaders, and political activists, supplemented by individual study projects, are featured. Trips to enhance classroom work may include the Houses of Parliament, Speakers’ Corner, ministerial offices, local councils, political party headquarters, and a journey to Wales to meet with regional leaders. The only prerequisites for this course are intellectual curiosity about the modern political world, a tolerant spirit, and an open mind.

Psychology
The Ripper and More: Psychopathology in the UK
6 semester hours in PSY 499 or 599
This course focuses on contrasting the United Kingdom and the United States with regard to topics in psychopathology. Designed to introduce students to diverse topics in behavioral psychology including the history of the treatment of mental disorders, addictive behaviors, criminal profiling, and legal issues pertaining to commitment and the insanity defense, this course will meet in London and Edinburgh, Scotland. Students should be prepared for extensive walking tours and class meetings in clinical, professional and urban environments.
top
Sociology
British Culture and Society
6 semester hours in SOC (Culture) 499 or 599
A series of lectures by British experts in London and a number of exciting field trips provide the student with an opportunity to develop an overall appreciation of British culture and society. The London lectures cover such crucial aspects of British society as politics, education, social class, population trends, the military, family, religion, the monarchy, sports, and changing economics. Field trips include the Houses of Parliament, old London’s east side and docklands, and the historic cities of Canterbury and Cambridge, allowing each student a personal insight into the diversity of Great Britain’s social and cultural environment.

Speech & Hearing Sciences
Audiology in Britain for the Speech Pathologist, the Audiologist,
and the Deaf Educator
6 semester hours in SHS 499 or 599
We speak the same language. Do we test hearing the same way? Do we use the same sign language? Is aural rehab the same in England? Who's your doctor in England? Is the health service the same? Other current interesting topics will also be covered. You will come away with a broad understanding of audiology in Great Britain. We go to Bath for English experts to provide insight into “their field.” From our travel base in London, we visit schools, a hearing aid factory, and hospitals to see audiologists provide treatment.
top
Speech Communication
Intercultural Communication
6 semester hours in SCM 499 or 599
This course examines the verbal and nonverbal communication of social, cultural, and ethnic groups of Great Britain. Field trips to observe social interaction, public discourse, and language variations have taken students to Parliament, the criminal courts, ethnic communities, Speakers’ Corner, the British Museum, the Museum of Welsh Folk Life, outdoor markets, public parks and plazas, a senior citizen daycare facility, and a comedy club. During past years students have also visited universities in Oxford, Cambridge, Portsmouth, Norwich, Bristol, and Cardiff, Wales. Similar activities are being planned for 2007.
top
Sport Management
Global Sport Industry
6 semester hours HPR 499or 599
The growing global sport industry requires that the future sport management professional keep abreast of new and proven managerial techniques. Major sports events present a series of immensely complex planning, management, operational, logistical and technological challenges to the individuals, agencies and authorities responsible for their management. Athletes, officials, spectators and the media demand and expect excellence in facilities and organization in every aspect of an event-from transportation and timing, to catering and in stadium facilities.
In order to better understand both a theoretical foundation and practical application of the global sport industry, students will explore the development of the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. The sheer volume of stadia and venue construction as well as the investment in infrastructure provides a great opportunity to see the birth of a global sport event.
Course activities will combine a series of lectures, field excursions, case studies and research. Lectures will examine planning and production of a world sport event; stadia and venue design, construction and financing; the impact of social and cultural factors in marketing the world event; methods of managing human resources; methods of managing concessions and box office; public/private sector cooperation; the role of promoters; integration of international federations, local organizing committees, and governing bodies; and olympism and culture.
Supervised research will involve sports event security or a comprehensive international sport business case study.

Theatre
British Theatre: Tradition and Trends
6 semester hours in THE 499 or 599
(May be substituted for THE 100, the Theatre Appreciation core requirement at Southern Miss)
Fees include required theatre tickets.
Theatre is arguably Britain’s greatest cultural treasure. This course offers students the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the greatest theatre in the world. From the Globe Theatre of Shakespeare’s day to the Covent Garden Opera House of the Restoration, and from the Victorian Music Halls of the 19th century to the bold, new productions of the Royal National Theatre today, music and theatre have, together, thrilled the heart, mind, and soul. The class is intended for students, dedicated artists, and interested spectators alike.
Students will meet inside the pub where Shakespeare met his “mates” (and discover the origins of tradition, superstition, secret hangouts, and theatre slang) and walk across the famous Waterloo Bridge to the West End where Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera revitalized the British musical theatre. We’ll go to Fleet Street where Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd is set, scrutinize video archives at the British Theatre Museum, and explore the “Fringe” where cutting-edge artists earn their reputations.
The class will also go to some of the best theatres outside of London to experience the great range of venues Britain has to offer. Students learn directly from artists who have worked professionally in British theatre. Guest speakers on this program are the best the theatre world has to offer.
