中世纪爱尔兰语 MPhil Medieval Irish

The M.Phil. in Medieval Irish at Trinity College Dublin aims to give students the knowledge of language, literature, metrics and palaeography needed to edit and translate a medieval Irish text from original manuscripts. Students focus either on the Early Irish period (600-1200) or the Classical Modern Irish period (1200-1650). The taught portion extends over two semesters with six contact hours per week. Early Irish modules include prose, poetry, law, historical linguistics and Middle Irish language. Classical Modern Irish modules cover palaeography, metrics, language, linguistic tracts, editing from manuscript and textual engagement. The programme concludes with a dissertation of approximately 20,000 words.
