This degree is an introduction to the growing field of interdisciplinary mediaeval studies. The course will equip students with knowledge of different theoretical approaches, current debates and the nature of cross and inter-disciplinary work. It is designed to be flexible enough to cater for students from different academic backgrounds and with different career plans, furnishing those who wish to go on to further research with the technical and interpretative skills needed for research degrees. Thus, for example, it provides for historians wishing to work with literary criticism, or language graduates requiring training in the methods of history or history of art. Students will be able to choose their own areas of specialism, working on already established interests and/or developing new ones. The degree draws on the long-established and recognised strengths in mediaeval studies available across the Faculty of Arts. Teaching is provided by staff whose interests range from late antiquity to the 15th Century and across the mediaeval world, from the Middle East and the mediterranean, to the British Isles and Scandinavia.
