LITERATURE Dear Jane: Jane Austen’s Epistolary Novels

Book Study: Animal Farm by George Orwell

Thursday, February 1, 8, 15, 22 | 4:45-6:00 pm | Registration: $20 Vandiver Hall 201 | Dr. Karen Zagrodnik Teacher Recertification Credit Available

Monday, April 9, 16, 23, 30 | 3:45-5:00 pm | Registration: $20 Mr. Henry Spann, Dr. Joyce Wood | Vandiver Hall 134 Teacher Recertification Credit Available

Jane Austen wrote two epistolary works. The first, Love and Freindship, written when she was fifteen, already displays the wit and perception of character found in Austen’s mature works. The second, Lady Susan, written four years later, focuses on an atypical Austen character: an older, unlikeable woman. This class compares these two short works, studying Austen’s development as a writer. We will also discuss the film Love and Freindship, an adaptation of the novel Lady Susan. Participants are asked to read Love and Freindship before the first meeting. Copies may be found online at Pemberley.com and Project Gutenberg.

Short Stories and Presenters to Amaze US!

Tuesday, April 3, 10, 24 | 4:30-6:00 | Registration: $20 Vandiver Hall 201 | Ms. Marybeth Evans

Tuesday, February 6, 13, 20, 27, March 6 | 4:45-6:00 pm Vandiver Hall 134 | Teacher Recertification Credit Available Registration: $20

February 6: Dr. Jim Haughey will share a Tim O’Brien story about the Vietnam War and tie it in with the recent Ken Burns’ documentary on the Vietnam War. February 13: Dr. Bob Hanley will discuss “The Rocking-Horse Winner” by D. H. Lawrence. February 20: Dr. Nancye McClure will share thoughts about the story, “A Jury of her Peers.” February 27: Dr. Margaret Wooten selected “Revelation” by Flannery O’Connor. March 6: Mr. Henry Spann will bring a Roald Dahl story, “Lamb to the Slaughter,” to us.

Is Animal Farm a novella, a satire, or an allegory? Yes! It’s a masterful little gem by the brilliant Brit George Orwell, best known for his dark and powerful 1984. If you have read Animal Farm before but never understood its real meaning, this is your course. Class #1 deals with the history of the Russian Revolution of 1917, class #2 with biographical information about Orwell and then just exactly what is being satirized and allegorized. Class #3 continues with the many links to the Revolution and its aftermath. The final class is fully devoted to the 75-minute movie.

This spring the SC Academy of Authors will induct Mary Alice Monroe and Valerie Sayers, along with cookbook author Nathalie Dupree. During our first two classes, we will compare two books - Monroe’s Time Is a River and Sayers’ Due East. The former is set in Asheville and the latter in Beaufort. Both books are available through the Anderson County Library’s SCLends and can be purchased on Amazon. Monroe’s book is about Mia Landan, from Charleston, who travels to Asheville for her health. Sayers’ book is about Mary Faith Rapple, who’s 15 years old and pregnant. Instructor and Academy board member Marybeth Evans will also share personal insights from the authors. For our final session, let’s plan a meal using recipes from one of Natalie Dupree’s cookbooks. Participants will be able to select a food item from a wide variety of recipes that Marybeth will provide. She’ll bring the entree, leaving simple side dishes and desserts for the class members.

What are Beijing’s geopolitical objectives? What leadership and political conditions in each society underlie growing Sino-American tensions? What policies might Washington adopt to address this circumstance? March 29, Media and Foreign Policy | Mr. Nick Elliott State and non-state actors today must maneuver a complex and rapidly evolving media landscape. Conventional journalism now competes with usergenerated content. Official channels of communication can be circumvented through social media. Foreign policy is tweeted from the White House and “fake news” has entered the zeitgeist. Cyberwarfare, hacking and misinformation pose complex security threats. How are actors using media to pursue and defend their interests in the international arena? What are the implications for U.S. policy? April 5, Russia’s Foreign Policy | Ms. Pat Mulligan

Under President Vladimir Putin, Russia is projecting an autocratic model of governance abroad and working to undermine the influence of liberal democracies, namely along Russia’s historical borderlands. Russia caused an international uproar in 2016, when it interfered in the U.S. presidential contest. But Putin’s foreign policy toolkit includes other instruments, from alliances with autocrats to proxy wars with the U.S. in Georgia, Ukraine and Syria. How does Putin conceive of national interests, and why do Russian citizens support him? How should the United States respond to Putin’s foreign policy ambitions? April 12, Turkey: a Partner in Crisis | Ms. Pat Mulligan Of all NATO allies, Turkey represents the most daunting challenge for the Trump administration. In the wake of a failed military coup in July 2016, the autocratic trend in Ankara took a turn for the worse.

Paranoia reigns supreme in this modern take on the classic tale of the great general and his manipulative ensign. The lines are beautiful, and the imagery is rich.

NATURE What’s Up There Tonight? Thursday, February 1, 8, 15, 22 | 6:30-8:00 pm Vandiver Hall 134 | Registration: $20 | Dr. Jonathan Jennings Teacher Recertification Credit Available As a student and teacher, Dr. Jennings has been exploring the night sky for over 50 years. Astronomy can be a very expensive hobby, but it doesn’t have to be. The science of astronomy may be enjoyed without expensive equipment. Dr. Jennings will point out that “the stars are a free show for everyone’s enjoyment and amazement.” The three-fold purposes of this course are as follows: (1) to present background information about the Earth’s movements relative to the Moon, the Sun, and the Stars, (2) to help the participants explore how and where to observe objects that appear in the night sky by participating in outside viewing sessions (particularly the Moon and planets), and (3) to identify free online and print astronomy resources. The night sky, as viewed from Earth, is changing, and yet simultaneously constant. We see different portions of the night sky each night, but the constellations appear unchanging over the years. The Earth’s motions through space provide the basis for our measurement of time: the second, minute, hour, day, year, etc. Classroom presentations and nighttime viewing sessions will help participants better understand the dynamic motions of the planet on which we live and develop an appreciation for the varied objects we can see from Earth.

It presents changes that have occurred over the years in the driver, the vehicle, and the driving environment that affect driving safety. There is not a behind-the-wheel test or final exam run-through. The state of South Carolina law mandates that SC auto insurance carriers offer a reduction in auto premiums for class participants finalizing the course and being awarded a completion certificate.

March 19, 26 | 6:15-9:00 pm | Vandiver Hall, Room 202 Registration: $55 | Mr. Spencer Metcalf Passport to Retirement is an in-depth, retirement planning seminar that covers a broad range of financial topics to help attendees maximize their investments, reduce the burden of taxes, and prepare for a successful retirement.

At the conclusion of the course, participants have a no-obligation opportunity for a one-on-one investment analysis and risk tolerance analysis with the instructor. During the personal follow-up meeting, participants may ask financial planning questions that were too personal to discuss during the class. This two-pronged approach of in-class learning with a confidential followup meeting is an effective way for participants to build financial confidence as they plan towards retirement. There is no solicitation from the course instructor after the two class sessions and personal follow-up meeting.
