我们的学生研究文学作品中所代表的一些世界上最紧迫的问题，并通过对政治专业领域国际关系的研究来分析它们。在英语文学模块中，您将了解更多可能已经知道的作家和体裁（从悲剧到哥特，从莎士比亚和狄更斯到普拉斯和贝克特）。但是，从儿童文学到出版研究和书的历史，您还会遇到文学研究方面您可能不太熟悉的方面。我们的学者发表了有关中世纪诗歌到当代加勒比海地区和美国小说的所有内容的研究报告。随着学位课程的进展，您的模块选择将变得更加多样化和专业化：您可以在“研究手稿”上进行存档工作，或者在“课堂问题”中查看文学政治。从新任讲师
BA English and International Relations degree lets you explore the world from different perspectives. Our students examine some of the world's most pressing problems as they are represented in literary works and as they are analysed through the study of International Relations, a specialist area of politics.<br><br>In your English literature modules, you will read more of authors and genres that you may already know (from tragedy to Gothic, from Shakespeare and Dickens to Plath and Beckett). But you will also encounter aspects of literary studies that may be less familiar to you, from children's literature to publishing studies and the history of the book. Our academics have published research on everything from medieval poetry to contemporary American fiction. As you progress through your degree, your module choices become more diverse and specialised: you can do archive work on Studying Manuscripts, or look at the politics of literature in Class Matters. Everyone in our department, from new lecturers to professors, teaches at every level of the degree: this gives you the benefit of our expertise and makes you part of the conversation about our research and its impact outside the classroom.
