Course Overview

• Philosophy and Modern Languages brings together some of the most important approaches to understanding language, literature, and ideas
• The study of philosophy develops analytical rigor and the ability to criticize and reason logically. It allows students to apply these skills to questions ranging from how we acquire knowledge and form moral judgments to the nature of language, art, and literature
• The study of a modern European language develops analytical and critical abilities as well as highly competent linguistic skills. The study of the literature written in that language contributes to an understanding of many aspects of European culture
• It develops attention to stylistic and terminological detail and rhetorical strategies, and sensitivity to cultural and historical context, which are also of great value to the study of philosophy
• Oxford’s Modern Languages Faculty is one of the largest in the country, with a total intake of more than 250 students a year, including those reading joint degrees
• Modern Languages students spend a compulsory year abroad, usually in the third year
