AB The difficulty in delimiting the contents of Cultural Studies forced the departments of modern languages to establish a more tangible teaching alternative. Teachers in those departments acknowledged that the students in their programs should learn about the cultural practices of the countries they were studying, besides the traditional literary and linguistic subjects. Their primary objective was to keep the new subject close enough to Cultural Studies, but equipped with a set of objectives and contents, and a methodology which Cultural Studies lacked. The result was the creation of 'History and Culture' or Área Studies. Yet, this new subject has remained a minor área within the teaching of Modern Philology. This paper will try to evaluate the subject 'History and Culture of Englishspeaking Countries' from three perspectives: (1) in its relation to Cultural Studies; (2) through its definition as a subject in the curriculum of modern languages teaching; and (3) pointing out its objectives, contents and methodology. The purpose of this work is, thus, to make the public acquainted with the so-called 'third pillar' of modern languages teaching; and more specifically, with the 'third pillar' of English Philology.
