Literary London (and Edinburgh!)

The English & Modern Languages Department sponsors Literary London, a study tour combining reading of major British authors (Jane Austen, Thomas Hardy, Robert Louis Stevenson, Virginia Woolf, and others) with extensive sightseeing.

Most of the trip is spent in London, with the class also traveling to Edinburgh and other locations of literary significance. Taylor students have been participating in this trip for over 45 years!

  Literary London was a dream! From seeing where Jane Austen wrote some of my favorite books, to strolling through bookstores in Oxford, to seeing Poet’s Corner in Westminster Abbey, I had so many opportunities to learn about and grow in my love for literature. I came away from the trip with new friendships and many books added to my to be read list!

  The trip brought to life many authors and stories that I have loved for so long. It was unforgettable and taught me the importance of literature and the power it can have in history.
