Description |
Early and Modern Irish are taught as two separate subjects in the School. These courses provide students with a grounding in the critical study of the language, literature and culture of Ireland and Gaelic Scotland. Students are introduced to the basic skills of linguistic and literary analysis as well as to the elements of social history, palaeography and comparative philology. The course in Early Irish includes study of the Celtic and Indo-European relationships of the Irish language and offers Modern and Middle Welsh studies. The Modern Component provides a course in Scottish Gaelic. Research students may read for an M.Litt.or a PhD. |
