Examine the formation of the American literary aesthetic, and the critical concepts and ideologies that shape the American nation, through the study of a varied range of literary and critical works from both sides of the Atlantic. Gain an understanding of the similarities and differences between English and American literature by immersing yourself in the history and culture of the two countries. You won't just look at the classics. Although you'll be reading texts by American heavyweights from the established literary canon, you'll also be looking at literature that showcases a different experience of America. This includes Native American and African American fiction, and the beat poets. You'll have access to probably the best collection of American materials in the country, at Senate House Library. London is full of literary inspiration, from theatres and libraries to coffee shops where you can curl up with a book. Read our guide to literary London.
