Romanticism and the Age of the Revolution

Visits to museums, galleries and archival collections—including Tate Britain, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Museum of London and the British Museum—will allow program participants to examine some of the age's revolutionary pamphlets, cultural manifestos, and experiments in visual culture, including many unique examples of work that can be seen nowhere else. Registration begins November 15.
