The Scandinavian languages have a rich literature ranging from the Middle Ages to the modern period; for the linguist they offer a fascinating field for comparative study between themselves and with other Germanic languages; history of art involves the historical study of the most diverse kinds of visual art: paintings and posters, grand public decorations and private illuminated manuscripts, sculptures, photographs and prints; students think about how particular works were made, who they were made for and why?; they also face questions about meaning and interpretation: how did people understand a work at the time it was made and how have interpretations of it changed over time?
