The first Course, in 1965, was called The Contemporary Europe Pre-University Course, and its content was predominantly topics of contemporary interest- political theory, economics, sociology, psychology, urban planning, etc. Few people did art history at school at that time. Due to the inspiring lectures on Venetian Art by Professor Pignatti, Vice Director of the Civic Museums, art history became popular with our students and gradually, together with Music and World Cinema, became the core of the Course. In 2010 we are returning to our original involvement with contemporary affairs by including a set of lectures on global environmental and political issues- without reducing our principal focus on the European cultural tradition. In the first years of The Course we were guests of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini on the island of S.Giorgio Maggiore (picture above). Later, for 19 years, our lecture centre was in the Arsenale (picture above), guests of the Societa Dante Alighieri.
