Develop a linguistic and critical understanding of the English language, whilst exploring the rich variety of its literature.<br/><br/>The study of the English language provides the perfect context for the analysis of literature, and the study of English literature enhances an understanding of the<br/>language working in practice. The two disciplines complement each other, but also offer great variety of subject matter.<br/><br/>You will have the opportunity to learn the necessary skills for the advanced analysis of language and literature, and by the end of the course, you will be familiar with the major branches of language study, and will have studied a wide range of literature in a variety of contexts.<br/><br/>We offer an engaging and supportive atmosphere in which ideas about language and literature are shared. Group discussion is at the heart of the degree, making the study of language and literature exciting, varied and dynamic. You can customise your degree as you progress, so by the third year you might be taking several specialist optional modules as well as working on a dissertation in either English language or literature, whose title you have created, working individually with a lecturer to complete your project.
