Program Overview

Do you love nothing more than a good book? Or perhaps you're fascinated by the inner workings of your favourite texts? If so, this course is for you.

Our published staff will support you to build your research skills and explore a range of literary genres, from Romantic poetry to dystopias. We focus on:

questions of genre
establishing and challenging a literary canon
the idea of the archive, notions of orality and performance
the relationship between manuscript and print cultures
editorial practice and politics

We also investigate textual and critical issues involved in studying literatures in their cultural and historical contexts. For example, you might trace the textual history of a modernist novel through its drafts, or investigate the epistolary networks which shaped court poetry.

You can also study what you enjoy the most, with optional modules in a variety of literary forms, genres and themes.

Course Content
Pre-arrival reading lists will be sent out with registration information before you join your course, where available.

The total credits for this course are 180, which in a full-time degree is made up of three 20-credit modules in autumn, three 20-credit modules in spring, then a 60-credit dissertation over the summer.

For part time students, completing the course in 24 months, you will typically choose three 20-credit modules in the first and second years of study, and complete the 60-credit dissertation over two summers.

All classes take place during weekdays.
