The course focuses on reading, translation and analysis of Medieval and Renaissance Latin texts from different genres.

Mostly prosaic texts have been selected but a certain amount of spiritual and secular poetry will be presented as well as its formal analysis. In the case of spiritual texts biblical and christian motives will be analysed as well. The students are lead to make their own interpretation and translation of the texts.
