Title: Course in The Oxford Program
Location: US
Company: Education
Thomas More College’s Oxford Studies Program is a two-week course that delves into the lives and thoughts of G.K. Chesterton and other major Catholic thinkers such as John Henry Cardinal Newman, poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, and authors Hilaire Belloc and J.R.R. Tolkien. The program is designed to prepare participants for graduate school while helping them gain a deeper understanding of the Catholic intellectual role in today’s world through a combination of seminar-style lectures, guided tours, discussions, and conversations inspired by these four great writers.
Students explore landmarks of England that are important to these thinkers and English history. Students see Cardinal Newman’s colleges, the church where he preached as an Anglican, and the retreat centre in Littlemore where he was received into the Catholic church in 1845. Furthermore, participants visit Tolkien’s grave in Wolvercote, one of his houses, and the pub where he and other Inklings met. Also, they tour The Kilns, the home of C.S. Lewis, where he and Tolkien would frequently meet.
