Description

This module blends language acquisition (morphology, syntax and vocabulary) with work on rhetoric, stylistics, context and linguistic usage. This module covers Old French, up to the thirteenth century. We shall read, translate and discuss selected texts and extracts from a variety of linguistic areas which used northern French, the langue d’oïl. The texts will be a mixture of literary, sacred and historiographical works; there is some flexibility in the texts selected, depending on student interest. Students should have a good reading knowledge of modern French.
