    Wales, England and Scotland by Rail June 21 to July 1, 2022 Relive bygone eras on two day trips on board vintage private trains and a two-night train journey aboard the luxurious Belmond Royal Scotsman with English professor Elaine Treharne. FACULTY LEADER Elaine Treharne Professor Elaine Treharne, a native of Wales, joined the Stanford faculty in 2012 in the School of Humanities and Sciences as a professor of English. She is also the director of Stanford Text Technologies and the former director of Stanford’s Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis. Her main research focuses on early medieval British manuscripts, Old and Middle English religious poetry and prose, and the history of handwriting. Included in that research is her current project, which looks at the materiality of textual objects together with the patterns that emerge in the long history of text technologies, from the earliest times (circa 70,000 BCE) to the present day. Regarding our program through Wales, England and Scotland, Professor Treharne says, “I’m very excited about this wonderful tour, which takes in some of the most beautiful scenery in the United Kingdom. Landscapes that are stunning, amazing sites that tell the story of Britain—this is bound to be an exceptional adventure, and I can’t wait!” On our program, Professor Treharne will discuss the many cultures that crossed, colonized and cultivated the island of Great Britain, and she’ll focus on all the Cs—castles and country houses, customs and class, churches and cathedrals, countryside and communication.
