Every European citizen has the right to access the common culture of the continent that has its roots in the Middle Ages. Europe would be incomprehensible without its millenary history, the European nations, inaccessible without an understanding of its centennial journey, the current aspirations of Europeans, unintelligible without the heroic longings of the great characters in their excesses and in their justice, as well as in the imaginary that we share.
With the project Follow Your Hero we try to immerse our pupils in the historical and literary milestones of the European Middle Ages and carry out with them a reflection on our linguistic and cultural roots and our cultural imaginary.
Follow Your Hero
Our students imagine a family line throughout the Middle Ages with credible characters.
A family
Each character in this family inherits and enriches a diary that reflects the great moments of the Middle Ages.
An inherited diary
The different families create a journey in relation to the trips made by its members to essential places of European cultural and historical heritage.
A heroic guide
The main anchor points for our students are three medieval epic poems that reflect the lives of three founding heroes of French, Spanish and Scottish identity and literature.
Three epic songs
A real scenario
Our mobilities to France, Spain and Scotland will allow our students to visit the places where great literary or historical events took place.
Founding heroes
Roland of Roncevaux, Charlemagne, The Cid, Joan of Arc, William Wallace, so many characters who will march in the stories of our families, the eyes of our students, our shared imagination.
