I went to Besancon for the Master with the idea that digital tools and programming would help me apprehend my future better. My thing was Python classes and HTML stuff, that were for me the thing I enjoyed the most. Without lowering the value of other classes, it’s just that I’m more of an IT guy, inside. But I should say that I had a particular appetence for the practical bibliography. Because we touched books, items that were part of ancient societies in some ways. I didn’t know I could like a course that was related to common knowledge, history, literature, bindings and bibliography that much. Even though I wasn’t the best in this class and struggled real hard, it was still one of the course where my mind was challenged and the class never repetitive.
