Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course provides an introduction to Old English (OE), the oldest attested stage of the English language, used up to the early 12th century. From the start, the discussion of the main linguistic features of OE will be linked with the reading and analysis of a variety of OE texts, which will also be discussed in their sociohistorical and cultural context. Participants will learn to use the main tools, both printed and electronic, for the study of the language. By the end of the course, they should be able to read OE texts on their own and to do further studies in the field.
