As a student of modern Irish, you will study Irish and Scottish Gaelic language, literature and culture from the end of the 12th century to modern times. A wide range of texts and authors will be examined and you will be introduced to the elements of linguistic and literary analysis. The course provides an introduction to the critical study of 20th century prose and poetry and to the study of classical modern Irish literature. The social history of the modern Irish language is also analysed.
