BA Literary and Linguistic Studies

Literary and linguistic studies focus primarily on the elements of language: the sounds, word and sentence structures, and the meaning of linguistic units. It also investigates how language is acquired, used, and adapted for certain purposes.When systematically working with texts realizations and methods from other disciplines can be called upon. For example, philosophy supplements the philological research of logic, ethics, scientific and argumentation theories, rounded out by cultural perspectives, which then highlight, which zeitgeist a text is reflecting.
