Course summary

Combine specialist study, theoretical inquiry and interdisciplinary investigations to explore literature, culture and history. On this course, you’ll have the opportunity to pursue innovative work as you shape your course to your particular interests. This can include a focus on a specific period or concept, or engaging with ideas across a wide historical range. Our faculty research expertise spans the medieval to the modern and contemporary periods.The diverse research interests in the Department of English mean that you’ve got expert support in the topics you choose to focus on. Our particular strengths lie in:

  • querying the materiality and the body
  • ecology and political economy
  • philosophical approaches to literature
  • decolonisation and radical politics
  • novel theory
  • poetics and experimental writing.
You’ll learn about the theoretical ideas and conceptual methods that underpin research in literature. When you graduate, you’ll have the skills necessary for further study inside and outside academia. We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
