The Anglo‑Saxon, Norse and Celtic course is concerned with the history, languages, literature and material culture of the British Isles, Ireland and Scandinavia in the early medieval period. It is a wide‑ranging course, which is likely to appeal to anyone with an interest in medieval history, languages, and literature. Graduates in ASNC gain employment in a wide variety of fields; the degree also provides a stage in the training of potential scholars in the field.
To find out more, come and visit us on the ASNC Department Open Day, which this year takes place on Wednesday 28 June 2023. The event is free of charge.
The teaching staff will describe the courses they provide, the kinds of materials studied, the range of choices, and the kinds of employment our graduates move into. There will be opportunities to put questions and to ask advice about application procedures for both prospective students and accompanying parents; students currently on the course will be available to talk to. A visit to a College Library to view Anglo‑Saxon and other medieval manuscripts will follow the presentations.
The event will begin at 12.15pm, and a buffet lunch will be provided. The presentations will end by 4.00pm and the library visit will end by 5.00pm.
