Course content

The MA Medieval Studies encourages you to explore the depth and breadth of resources available in the medieval city of Lincoln – home to one of the few surviving original copies of the Magna Carta and to one of the greatest medieval cathedrals in Europe.

Historical archives, literary manuscripts and the built environment are all used to immerse you in an advanced study of the Middle Ages. The programme makes use of the remarkable range of medieval archives in Lincoln to teach skills such as palaeography and to explore the economic, social and religious history of England.

Modules in medieval literature and Arthurianism are supported by the wealth of literary manuscripts at Lincoln Cathedral, including one of only fifty full manuscripts of the Canterbury Tales and the Thornton Romances, containing the earliest known account of King Arthur’s death.
