This subject will offer academic specialization and a theoretical insight into different aspects of the history of Norwegian and possibly other Nordic languages during ancient times. | Contents
The study of ancient languages covers the history of Norwegian and other Nordic languages from ancient times to the early modern period. Emphasis may to varying degrees be placed on an overview of the period as a whole or focus on individual themes. The phenomena that are studied may be purely linguistic or be associated with the circumstances between language and society in ancient times. They may furthermore be studied from both empirical and theoretical points of view.
Bachelor degree programme in language and literature with a specialization in Nordic language and literature, or equivalent, is recommended. | Form of teaching
The teaching will be offered in the form of 7 two-hour sessions during the first half of the semester. | Exam and assessment
