English and History MA (Hons)

Course Overview

Combining your English and history studies gives you a very wide range of modules to choose from. For English, you can study the history of literature from the medieval period right up to the present day. A range of modules gives you the option to study anything from Shakespeare to science fiction, Romantic poetry to contemporary poetry, or Victorian novels to Hollywood films. We start by covering topics such as how to analyze a poem and how to read a novel as a literary critic, moving on to historical surveys of the literature. We then explore in more detail many of the periods, movements, and topics previously covered. For history we teach social, cultural, and political history from the early modern period through to the contemporary period, focusing in particular on the British Isles, Europe, the Americas, Africa, and India.
