In English and Literary Studies, we take the imagination seriously. We address the creative texts societies produce and ask what they mean. From Shakespeare to Netflix, and from critical theory to creative writing, English and Literary Studies offers units that look at the exciting ways in which literature works in a newly globalised world.

 

This is a diverse and vibrant major that gives students the opportunity to tailor their learning according to their interests and career pathway, from creative writing and performance studies, to the rich history of the western literary tradition.
