2026-2027 Anglo-Saxon 1: Language and Culture
$625.00

In this year-long class, we will learn the foundations of Old English grammar while being introduced to various literary forms in the language. The first term consists of grammar knowledge, poetry reading, and initial translations. The second term includes more advanced grammar and continued poetry and narrative translations. Students will be expected to do in-class readings. Throughout the year, students will be welcomed into the world of the Anglo-Saxon through lectures on their history and culture. Students who have completed this course should be prepared for translating Beowulf in Year Two.
We will be offering Anglo-Saxon I in the coming school year with a minimum of 15 students. If the class doesn’t have enough enrollment to move forward, we will provide a 100% refund to those who have signed up.
