Please note the following special offering in Spring 2024:

EEurLL 5627 — Introduction to Old Irish

Here are some particulars about the course:

Instructors: Professors Daniel Collins & Brian D. Joseph

Call number: 25786 (grad) / 25787 (udg) — 3 credits

Days, time, and place:  T Th  11:10 – 12:30  // Cunz Hall 330

This class offers an introduction to the Old Irish language, a key Indo-European language that was spoken in Ireland from c. 600 – 900 CE and is the ancestor of Modern Irish and Scots Gaelic. It is also a vehicle for exploring a rich and interesting folklore tradition.

This course is a blend of a language class and a linguistics-of-that-language class, with the target language being Old Irish.  We plan to spend time each week explaining the grammar and vocabulary of the language, based on the reading of authentic texts, and also presenting selected topics in the linguistic development of Old Irish.

This class is open to all interested parties, undergraduates as well as graduate students. No prior knowledge of Irish or of linguistics is needed, as long as students keep an open mind and are willing to work on this fascinating language.
