Course summary

Few words are as evocative and intriguing as ‘Celtic’, bringing to mind the intricacies of Bronze Age jewellery, the massive structures of Stonehenge and Newgrange, the legends of Arthur and Cú Chulainn and the Bardic craft of medieval kings and princes. But ‘Celtic’ is also about the Renaissance, the Enlightenment and the New World Romanticism, Revolution and the struggles for survival in modernity of languages, literatures and entire national identities. This new course from Bangor University gives students the opportunity and ability to sift fact and fiction, and to answer in detail the question. Over a single academic year, modules will be taught by experts in the Schools of Welsh, History, and Music, focusing on literature, archaeology, religion, mythology, antiquarianism, art history and music, to explore the culture and identity of the Celtic peoples from the hillforts of prehistory to the devolved and independent parliaments of today. Students on the course will also be guided as they perform their own research towards a Master’s thesis on a topic of their choice. All instruction is available through English or Welsh, and comprehensive ESOL support is available where necessary.
