Introduction to Irish Folklore

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: 5KS228

This course introduces students to the folklore of Ireland and Gaelic Scotland. Students will read and learn how to interpret traditional texts such as tales, legends, songs, and proverbs. Students will also learn about the history of folklore collecting, various folkloric theories, and how to use archival resources and engage in fieldwork. **Outline for distance course:** The distance course is based on self-study and communication through the web-based learning environment, which contains all information regarding the course and course activities. Teaching takes the form of pre-recorded lectures, assigned readings, exercises, and discussions. Access to a computer with an internet connection is required to follow the course since all teaching and examinations are done online. Taking a distance course means that you yourself largely determine when you study since you are not as tied to scheduled classes. Note, however, that this kind of course requires as much effort as an ordinary campus course and that it is equally important to meet set deadlines.
