Field of Study: | Medieval and Renaissance Studies
|
Description: | A broad array of courses awaits you in Medieval Studies: explore scholastic philosophy, the farce in France and the origins of modern drama. Experience the exquisite visual art and complex Gothic cathedrals of Europe, and the sounds of Gregorian chant in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Discover how religion, technology, literature, politics and warfare shaped history, and influenced our modern-day world. This unique program will fully immerse you in the rich and clashing mosaic of cultures and individuals that is the Middle Ages.
You can complete this program as a 4-year Honours Bachelor degree with a Double Major or a 3-year Bachelor degree. Registration in the honours degree usually begins in the second year, but admission may be gained in the third or fourth year provided you meet requirements.
