Course summary
Stories take us back in time, transport us to different places and let us explore alternative realities. At the same time, their narratives are rooted in the most important issues of history, politics, film, gender studies, and more. Study at a university on the doorstep of major film studios, post-production houses, and the sought-after resources of the BFI. You’ll also benefit from the endless libraries, galleries, concert halls and theatres where you can challenge your literary perspectives further. A community of experts Studying these subjects together is about breaking down existing text while creating new stories for the screen. You might unpick the aftereffects of colonialism, then discuss the importance of children’s literature. Perhaps while unlocking the history and theory behind cinematic image and language. Taught by internationally acclaimed researchers and film practitioners, you can learn to write, think, analyse, shoot, and direct. And we have the largest literature department in the UK, with research covering storytelling from across the world, from our London East End home to Asian and North African literature. Few industries can match the exciting career opportunities in film. Meanwhile, comparative literature gives you analytical skills sought after by employers. You could be joining our graduates as directors, screenwriters or editors. Or perhaps you see yourself working in publishing, marketing or journalism.
