English and Philosophy MA (Hons)

Course Overview

Combining your English and philosophy studies gives you a very wide range of modules to choose from. You can study the history of English literature from the medieval period right up to the present day. You have the option of studying anything from Shakespeare to science fiction, Romantic poetry to contemporary poetry, creative writing to visual culture, 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 literature. We then explore in more detail many of the periods, movements, and topics previously covered. Philosophy explores our existence using critical thinking and argument. We specialize in continental (European) philosophy and teach key texts from the European tradition.
