Courses - The White Nights: History and Art of St Petersburg September 14, 2012

St Petersburg emerged "on the boggy lands from the mist of times" in the early 18th century and grew into an extraordinary city whose architectural splendour echoed the magnificence of the tsars. Yet the real wealth of this Venice of the North lay in its rich artistic, socio-political, musical and literary culture, which this study day examines through discussions, films, documentaries and music.
