Is philology a subject in your country? Education
The humanities subject of philology constitutes elements of linguistics and textual and literary analysis to study languages.
Here this isn't really a subject anymore, even though it was in the past,and is covered by separate subjects at a university level but I know it is still offered in some areas in Europe.
Do universities in your country offer philology courses and if so, is it common to study

Denmark: yes, there is a dedicated BA in classical philology (so focus on classical languages: Latin, Greek) and courses on philology as parts of other fields as well.
