Live online course, 10 September to 19 November 2025, 6.00-8.00 pm British Time
London was founded as Londinium in 43 CE by the colonising Romans. Its citizens have come from all nations and places, particularly during the last 200 years; it is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. London is dynamic, exciting, complex, sometimes dangerous or tragic, sometimes hopeful. All this goes into the literature of this great city.
In this course we observe London as it changes from the eighteenth century until World War II.
