Burt Wolf: Travels and Traditions

Northwestern Switzerland (3x12)

Date de diffusion: Nov 04, 2001

Burt takes us to a 500-year-old divorce court, a 2000-year-old Roman kitchen, and a ferry that offers travelers a short course in philosophy as they cross the Rhine River. We take a look at Basil's carnival, learn why cookies are sold in tins, see how paper was first made and discover why calligraphy survived the invention of the printing press and the computer.
