D. L. Rubin, Professor Emeritus of French Language and Literature at UVa, will begin his Winter/Spring session on January 19. The theme is “Changing Places”. Dates for the class are January 19, February 9, March 2, March 23, April 13, and May 4. Informational handouts are available at the Senior Center front desk when you sign up.

$32 for guests, members are free.

Preparation: each participant identifies specific interpretive problems in the assigned work then frames a trial question and two contrasting answers. These are presented in session to launch a searching discussion by the entire group. The moderator coordinates the exchange, poses Socratic questions and provides relevant information, but does not lecture. Moderator is D. L. Rubin, Professor Emeritus at UVA, where he teaches critical argumentation and chairs the poetry board of The Virginia Quarterly Review.
