This unique programme in Medieval History examines the history and culture of Britain, Europe and Islam during the Middle Ages. You will also have the opportunity to study some modules focusing on the early modern and modern eras. The first year will introduce you to the diversity of the Middle Ages and to the wide variety of sources used by historians, including non-written evidence such as archaeological material. You will then have great freedom to shape your own studies from a wide range of medieval and early modern options, perhaps focussing on medieval religious cultures, the place of women and minorities in medieval society or the history of the Crusades.
