Course Description

Six aristocratic sisters belonged to the Mitford Family — the original Downton Abbey family. They were labeled the “bright young things” of the 1930s and 1940s, expected to do what aristocratic women did in those days: marry well and have children. They reflected the social upheaval of the time, taking on quite different careers: a novelist, a farmer, a couple of fascists, a communist and a duchess — a Mitford for everyone. Each week, we will learn all about each sister: Jessica, Nancy, Diana, Unity and Pamela. During the last week, there will be a quiz covering the material discussed, and the winner will get tea and candy.
