The French component in this joint honours programme offers the possibility of study across the whole range of French and Francophone language, literature and culture, from the middle ages to the present day, and includes a year of study abroad; this can be combined on the classics side with either the intensive study of Latin and/or ancient Greek language and literature, or a more broadly-based approach to Greek and Roman culture as a whole, with a smaller (but still indispensable) element of language work.
Year 1 examples: Myths of Greece and Rome or languages and literature; Latin or Greek language; core French language; introduction to French literature. Year 2 examples: The ancient and medieval book; the Byzantine saint; the classical tradition; Greek literature and culture under the Roman empire; Greek philosophy (Plato and Aristotle); post-Aristotelian philosophy (neo-Platonists); stoics, epicureans and sceptics; theory of literature; ovid through the ages. Year 3: Year abroad. Year 4 examples: The stylistics of translation; medieval Occitan literature; the debate about women in the middle ages; 16th-century encounters with the new world; the literary perception of the Honn� Homme.
