English Literary Studies MA

There are no compulsory modules on this course; you simply choose the 4 modules which interest you most. It thus provides exceptional opportunities if you want to work across different literary periods and genres. Options range from modules on poetry or drama from the medieval to the modern, to modules on gender or space from the Renaissance through to the postmodern. You could choose some of our modules on film or postcolonial studies, or, in some cases, select an option module from another department (such as history, politics or philosophy) and enrich your options even further.
