Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course will provide a survey of the corpus of texts produced in Early Medieval Ireland, roughly the period from the 7th to the 12th century. We will consider the various contexts for the production of this corpus, including religious, historical, and socio-political factors, and examine a wide range of textual genres, from the earliest religious works to secular laws to prose saga literature. Some of the main topics will include: standard prose and poetic literary forms, interactions between the monastic and secular power centres, Irish-Latin bilingualism, and the intersections between secular and ecclesiastical learning, between Christian and pre-Christian influences, and between oral and written culture.
