Literature Course at the John Adams Institute

The John Adams Institute is well known for its amazing selection of literary speakers. But now they're raising the bar and offering a literature course this fall.

In this six-week course Dan Hassler-Forest of the University of Amsterdam will explore the way writers today are mixing art forms (think how television shows have taken the place of serial fiction). Lectures and corresponding discussions will focus on authors and filmmakers like Bret Easton Ellis, Charlie Kaufman, Jane Campion, David Benioff, and David Cronenberg. Some of the authors will also be featured at fall events put on by the John Adams Institute. The best part? Course students will have free entrance to these events!

The course will be held on Thursdays: 9, 16, 23, 30 September 2010 and 7 and 14 October 2010, between 7.30pm - 9.00pm. The location is at De Rode Hoed located at Keizersgracht 102, The cost is €200 per person. If you're interested, please register before 1 September 2010 at info@john-adams.nl.
