Students fought the jet lag today and got into the first full day of class. A discussion of our first text,
The Marble Faun, and a viewing of
Rome, Open City and
The Battle of San Pietro forced us all to face our brief semester head-on. Nothing like a little Italian neorealism and U.S. propaganda to perk up your day! On the break between classes, people scattered for lunch, and some folks took set out on a quick excursion to find Hilda's tower (pictured above, from
The Marble Faun).
Tomorrow, the Forum!
