Teaching – autumn semester of 2020
Due to the announcement from the Swedish Government issued May 29th, that returning to campus-based education is possible from June 15th, the following applies to teaching at the Joint Faculties of Humanities and Theology during the autumn semester:
- Due to the ongoing corona (COVID-19) pandemic and the restrictions that have been issued, the courses taught this autumn will have a limited number of meetings on campus, depending on the availability of suitable lecture rooms. The major part of the teaching will take place online. Detailed information on what is the case for your course will be given below.
- If the teaching is campus-based, there will be assigned entry and exit passages for each teaching room regarding stairwells, corridors and entrances (doorways). Please be considerate and follow the instructions to the point. Hand disinfectant will be available in all lecture halls and group rooms.
Please pay attention to the start time of your teaching. The stated time in your course schedule is valid.
The course provides students with a general overview of the development of Greek from Antiquity to the present, focusing on the period from the late Byzantine to the modern era with regard to changes in sound system, grammar and syntax. Furthermore, it deals with changes in the vocabulary of Greek and its background in societal and historical events and periods.
The course is a compulsory component of the Master of Arts (120 credits) programme in Language and Linguistics specialising in Modern Greek. It is also offered as a freestanding course and can be included in a first or second cycle degree.
