Celtic Civilization
The Celtic Civilization programme includes a choice of specifically designed Celtic modules and a choice of relevant modules from other subjects. This gives an opportunity to get a broad overview of Celtic culture but also explore specific aspects of interest.
Welsh
Welsh is the most widely spoken of the modern Celtic languages, and ideal for students wanting to learn a new language at university level. Students gain a working knowledge of the language and can combine this with Celtic Civilization courses on the culture and literature.
Early Irish
You will have the opportunity to study Early Irish at a basic level in order to become familiar with the main features of the language. You will also read examples of texts, both prose and poetry, thereby gaining an insight into the riches of the language and literature of early medieval Ireland. No previous knowledge of Irish is required.
