ENGL1094 · English
Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
Following on from ENGL1093, this course offers a continuing introduction to the Irish language for American students. This semester we will learn the past, future and imperative tenses. Well examine the history of English and British policy toward the language, up to the controversy over the Irish Language Act today. We will continue to learn songs, and examine simple poetry and drama in Irish. Through this exploration you will enlarge your understanding of the cultural heritage out of which the language emerged, and which is accessible through Irish Gaeilc. Completion of this and Continuing Modern Irish I and II will fulfill the Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences language proficiency requirement.
