Stansky, traveled from their& ; academic home in the Master of Liberal Arts program at& ; Stanford University to commence an intellectual journey& ; at King& 019;s College, Cambridge University, England. Their purpose& ; was to explore the Bloomsbury Group, its influential ideas, artistic& ; endeavors, and cultural and intellectual significance in the worlds& ; of literature, history, the visual arts, economics, politics, gender, and& ; society. While residing in and around a beautiful campus and English& ; town saturated with history and gravitas, these graduate students& ; read and met to discuss seminal texual works by central Bloomsbury& ; figures, performed original and transcendent research with rare access& ; to the Modern Archives at King& 019;s, and took in the visual feasts of the& ; college& 019;s collection of art from Bloomsbury& 019;s painters and sculptors.& ; Balancing these pursuits of knowledge and academic exercise, these& ; students stepped into the rare English sunlight that a loving fate& ; poured on their time in Cambridge and explored the area with a& ; seemingly unquenchable thirst for the tastes, smells, and experiences& ; of the Bloomsbury Group& 019;s old haunts and sites of inspiration. They& ; clinked glasses of ale in the College Bar, shopped in the town, toured& ; local churches and galleries, punted on the River Cam, broke bread& ; in King& 019;s Dining Hall, took tea at Grantchester, attended dramatic& ; plays, crossed the lawn with their beloved Professor, admired the& ; soaring buttresses of King& 019;s College Chapel, and fell into brotherly& ; and sisterly love with each other all the while. This is a chronicle of& ; that journey, and what they& 014;what we& 014;discovered, not only about& ; Bloomsbury, but also about ourselves& 026;"
