BA Medieval and Neo-Latin

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of Erlangen Nuremberg

Program Overview

Latin did not vanish with the Roman Empire. In the following millennium it remained the most important means of communication in literature and science in the Western world (we call it medieval Latin). The supposedly dead language even survived the Middle Ages and was still important during the modern period (Neo-Latin). We can study its legacy in the respective sources (handwritten books and early prints). Medieval Latin and Neo-Latin is not just a linguistic and literary degree programme, it also involves media and cultural studies. It is the central subject in philology (linguistic and literary studies) and historical studies of the Western culture in the period from 500 A.D. to 1800 A.D. The degree programme has a strong international and interdisciplinary focus.
