International Hot Spots: Crisis in Context is a seven-part lecture series that aims to illuminate today’s many complex and ongoing geo-political crises. Beginning with Deborah Amos, International Correspondent for National Public Radio, and ending with Professor Mark Beissinger, Professor of Politics at Princeton University, on Ukraine, the contributors will bring experience and deep understanding of historical contexts, providing facts and accurate analysis to shed light on—and not just add heat to—hot spots in our world. Other talks will address China, regime change in Latin America, nuclear threats from countries like Russia, the war in Gaza, and rising populism in Europe.
These lectures are co-sponsored by the Princeton Adult School and the Community Auditing Program of Princeton University’s Office of Community and Regional Affairs.
NOTE: Lectures will be held in the Friend Center Auditorium, William and Olden Streets. Participants can park in any PU lot for free without a permit in the evening.

In this second class on Princeton’s history, we’ll look at different aspects of Princeton’s growth from 1910 to about 1955. We’ll look at how the population grew and changed in composition, where people lived, where they shopped, where they sent their kids to school, and how they got around. Some mundane aspects of Princeton that we interact with on a daily basis were intended as revolutionary developments. Others had unintended consequences.

Our three-part series introduces you to each of the three writing systems, with a focus on the remarkable 19th century scholars who cracked the codes of cuneiform, hieroglyphics, and the ancient alphabet. Each narrative unfolds like a detective story, with cues and clues along the way, until eventually each writing system revealed its secrets. Topics will be as follows: Session 1: The Decipherment of Egyptian Hieroglyphics: The Rosetta Stone and Beyond; Session 2: The Decipherment of Cuneiform Writing: A Cliffhanger (literally!); Session 3: The Phoenician Alphabet and Its Spread throughout the World—Including to Us.

Dr. Nithila M.P. Peter, PhD, Emotional Intelligence coach
and counselor for individuals and leaders
Sun., 6:30–8:00 pm, Feb. 18, 5 session
$100
Change and uncertainty challenge our friendships and dearest relationships. How do we attend to emotions that will help make our relationships more resilient amidst changes? The five sessions we will share together will, in part, explore the emotions that block our mental ability to navigate change and transformation. How do we guide our internal processes to avoid cultivating thought patterns or affective states that are not helpful? In contrast to constricting processes, we will also explore life-giving, altruistic, expansive emotions that foster the spirit of focus, self-assurance, and a sense of triumphant accomplishment, building genuine connections. Let us explore and build our awareness of the entire vocabulary of emotions that assist the process of navigating change, both light and dark, aided by cinematic and literary meditations, as well as some scintillating
conversations. So, together, let us commit to embracing change and transformation while servicing the ecosystems that sustain us—of authentic friendship.

This class will present an illustrated history of an exquisite city of unrivaled beauty, from its humble beginnings in an uninhabitable lagoon, to its miraculous rise to international power. Venice ruled the entire eastern Mediterranean and traded world-wide, purveying silks and spices from China and India, ivory from Africa, furs and amber from Russia. Although, with time, other lands replaced it in power, its beauty remained. Indeed, it is unique in that it has changed little in appearance since its days of glory and, as such, is a living and breathing historical phenomenon.

The films you’ll screen for this class will be Mustang (2015), Fill the Void (2012), Nafi’s Father (2019), Sand Storm (2016), Children of the Mist (2021) and A Girl in the River: The Price of Forgiveness (2015).

Murnau, the masterful director of the silent classics Nosferatu and Sunrise, Lewis Milestone, who was the first director of an Academy Award-winning best picture (All Quiet on the Western Front) to also win the award for best director, and John Frankenheimer, a director whose films, such as The Birdman of Alcatraz, the original The Manchurian Candidate, and Seconds, continue to resonate powerfully today. In this latest Zoom class in our Great Directors series, students will have an opportunity to learn about the careers of these forgotten masters and will get to watch and discuss some of their greatest films.

020 Representations of Women in Ovid’s
Metamorphoses: Toxic Masculinity or
Proto-Feminism? (Virtual) NEW!
Wed., 6:00-7:00 pm, Oct. 25, 8 sessions
(No class Nov. 22)
$105
For millennia the female characters in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, and their hapless fate when pursued—or ignored—by gods and men, have been the focus of countless works of art, music, and poetry. Are Ovid’s poems an expression of misogynist patriarchy in first-century Rome, or an archly clever indictment of it? This course explores such well-known myths as those of Daphne and Apollo, and Echo and Narcissus: For those with little or no Latin, the use of bilingual (Latin-English) texts, provided by the instructor, serve as introduction to (or review of), basic grammar and vocabulary, while offering more advanced students practice in reading authentic Latin poetry.

021 Nabucco: The Operatic Sensation That Galvanized
Verdi’s Stardom and Italy’s Nationhood
(Virtual) NEW!
Thurs., 6:00-7:00 pm, Nov. 2, 6 sessions
(No class Nov. 23)
$75
At the nadir of his professional and personal life, Giuseppe Verdi vowed to abandon opera entirely…until presented with the story of Nebuchadnezzar, the Biblical King who proclaimed himself God. Verdi’s Nabucco, an instant success, permanently established him as Italy’s preeminent composer. Its chorus of Hebrew slaves, in their struggle for freedom, resonated with sentiments of nationhood across Italy. “Viva VERDI”— acronym for Vittorio Emmanuel Re d’Italia—became the Risorgimento rallying cry. In this course, we study the opera in its historical context, as well as Verdi’s revolutionary influence on opera. Each class focuses on key arias and ensembles, using a bilingual (Italian-English) libretto, to introduce and/or reinforce basic skills in learning Italian. The instructor will host optional trips to the Met’s Sunday matinée, and local Live-in-HD screenings.

October 10th marks the 60th anniversary of the passing of Edith Piaf, legendary chanteuse whom Marlene Dietrich called “the soul of Paris”. In this course, we celebrate Piaf’s life and music: viewing the award-winning biopic, “La Vie en Rose” (2007); and studying Piaf’s best-known songs, using bilingual (French-English) texts, to introduce (or review) basic French language skills; for more advanced students, the course offers deeper appreciation of the poetry of Piaf’s verses—most of which she wrote herself—and how they reflect various aspects of her turbulent life. Each session features classic Piaf recordings, as well as live (amateur) performances, with optional audience participation and open “micros”.
NOTE: Students who register for this course may take it in-person and/or on-line (at no extra cost to those who attend both sessions).

theater and music
Wed., 6:00–7:00 pm, March 6, 10 sessions
$125
Of the hundreds of operas based on Shakespeare plays, Charles Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette remains one of the most popular ever. This sumptuous opera expresses the intense passion of the “star-crossed lovers” through some of the most beautiful music in the French repertoire—in the Romantic tradition of sensual and graceful vocal delivery. In this course, we study the opera in its original French, as well as through an English translation, to deepen appreciation of that interrelationship between the music and the language which is unique to opera. The use of bilingual (French-English) texts—introduces and/or reinforces basic language skills, while (for the more advanced students), enhancing literary appreciation of the lyrical passages inspired by Shakespeare’s play.
