Preparatory Year for Master in Ancient and Modern Languages and Literatures [59.0] - LAFR1PM

The preparatory year provides students with some basic knowledge and skills in French and Latin philology to help them sucessfully follow the Master [60] of arts in Ancient and Modern Languages and Literatures [60.0] or the Master [120] of arts in Ancient and Modern Languages and Literatures [120.0] .

The programme includes courses aimed at developing  :

• Linguistic and grammatical skills in French (theory and exercises) ;
• Linguistic and grammatical skills in Latin (theory and exercises) ;
• Literary skills in French and Latin (study  of the history of French and Latin literature ; analysis and understanding of literary texts).

Depending on the nature of the course and the teaching activities in question, the evaluation will take different forms. Some courses will involve oral and/or written evaluations (held during one of the three exam sessions), whilst the evaluation of seminars will involve more substantial participation on the part of the student as well as assessment of individual course work. Those exams relating to courses on communication skills will evaluate the student's level, i.e. the practical use of the language in relevant situations.
