About 91探花SI

Eighteen visiting scholars and educators from eighteen different countries are invited to come to 91探花 for four weeks of academic residency and two weeks of study tour.

In academic seminars, participants will encounter a diverse set of contemporary U.S. authors and artists, different kinds of cultural expression, and a variety of American colleagues from 91探花 and institutions around the country who represent a range of disciplinary approaches to literature and culture.

The goals of the Institute include more complex conceptions of U.S. history, society, and institutions; new materials and paths for research and teaching in participants’ home countries; and connections that foster peaceful, mutual understanding and the possibility for further intellectual and institutional exchange.
