Latin term

Anglicae (eurs,super)

Latin to English Art/Literary Education / Pedagogy
From a university degree certificate, This comes under the heading Curriculum and is included in a list of 6 subjects. Of course I know what Anglicae means, it's the bit in brackets causing the difficulty. Thanks.

It is nice of them to answer your question and of you to keep me/us posted.

Well, I got my answer Sandra Glasgow University Classics Dept. say the e is in fact a c, although it's a clear e in the document. This certificate was from 1964. This is what they say:
"It must in fact be 'Curs. Super', an abbreviation of Cursus Superior, which was the conventional phrase for 'Higher Class'. Ronald thinks this refers to what was in those days called 'Higher Ordinary'. Which I think means that they took a second subject to a higher level than the minimum required, and got a qualification of sorts in it."
Nice of them to take the trouble, though I doubt this will be much use to anyone in the future, the qualification is a very old one. Cheers.

Thanks Thank you for your input, Sandra. It seems that no-one knows this for sure, and I've emailed Glasgow Univ. for help. Will report further.............
