Third Year

Special Language Paper:

All those not doing Additional Language Tibetan, Japanese, or Korean should have already signed up for your Special Language Paper. Anyone who did not do so, please let Dr Liu know.

          Language Paper based on Special Texts: this paper will examine students on passages based on extended reading from the books already prescribed for their Special Texts. There will be differences between the various Special Texts options: some texts are extracts from longer works, in which case students, under guidance, would be expected to read more passages on their own from the complete work; other shorter works by the same or contemporary authors will also be introduced. In any case, you will be given guidance from the tutors of your Special Texts for further reading, in tutorials that will be arranged, but the bulk of the reading will be done by the students by themselves.

          Linguistics: Dr Liu will contact all those choosing Linguistics about teaching arrangements.

A meeting will be held on Dissertations in the 5^th week. Time and venue to be confirmed.
