Modern Languages and Linguistics
Why Choose Pembroke?
As well as having a tutor in Linguistics, Pembroke is one of the larger language colleges both in terms of tutors and students, and offers an unusually wide variety of languages and joint schools with Modern Languages.
In the study of Modern Languages we have Fellows in French and Italian and lecturers in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Modern Greek. Our key tutors in Modern Languages are Dr Tim Farrant, Tutorial Fellow in French with research interests in 19th century French literature and culture, and Professor Guido Bonsaver, Tutorial Fellow in Italian who specialises in modern Italian culture and, in particular, on the relationship between politics, film and literature.
At Pembroke we have a particularly strong focus on joint schools, including Modern Languages and Linguistics, in which our cross-disciplinary tutors work closely together to deliver a balanced and enriching academic experience.
Have you considered our other joint honours courses?
Both parts of this course are also available to take as part of other joint honours degrees, with options such as History and Modern Languages, English and Modern Languages, Modern and Middle Eastern Languages, Philosophy and Modern Languages and Psychology, Philosophy and Linguistics (PPL). Find out more about each of these on their respective course pages. Modern Languages is also available to take as a singular subject.
