I envision these courses as a mixture of oral lectures with visual materials as well as references to existing webessays on these websites (umilta, florin). Let us know to which courses you would wish to subscribe. We can then arrange to do them with MP3 recordings alongside PowerPoint slides, both downloaded from the Web and played simultaneously. Or better yet as conference calls with Skype, downloading Skype being free, and also using it between two or more participating computers, even across the Atlantic, being likewise free and therefore more spontaneous. My Skype identity is juliaboltonholloway, Italy, Florence. Especially valued will be contributions from others. Contact Julia Bolton Holloway to register for an independent scholar initiated seminar, setting up topics and times.
