English Language and Literature
I am a graduate of both the BA English Language and Culture ReMa Classical, Medieval and Early Modern Studies at Groningen Groningen University. I always made very extensive summaries during my courses, often adding in jokes, sarcastic comments, memes, fandom references etc. in the footnotes to make life a little more fun. I hope my summaries will help you!
