Learn Old English — Online Courses

Old English was spoken in England and Southern Scotland from the fifth century through to the time of the Norman conquest.

While some aspects of Old English will be familiar to modern English speakers, other aspects such as grammar will differ. The Old English alphabet includes characters that are not used in modern English today.

Try our introductory Old English online courses at City Lit. Our courses will enable you to feel confident translating old English texts including prose and the poetry of Beowulf.

Our courses are delivered online. For more information about our live online courses, please see our guide to online learning.
