在国外学习的那一年，在这个学位课程中（除了一些文学模块之外），您还将学习解决帝国现象及其当代后果的模块：例如，国家，散居和移民。研究的材料包括文学文本和理论文本以及生活写作。鼓励您考虑这些文字如何反映殖民地的经历以及其后果的叙述。英语学院是一个庞大而蓬勃发展的系，但是我们非常注意确保它成为一个支持学生的环境。从您到达那一刻起，您便是学生，教师和研究人员的学术团体中不可或缺的一部分，并参与对话，以期将主题的界限推向社会和文化探究的新领域。您将身处深陷文学史的国际顶尖研究人员和屡获殊荣的创意作家的指导下。
Year abroad, In this degree programme (alongside a selection of literature modules) you take modules that address the phenomenon of empire and its contemporary consequences: for example, nationhood, diaspora and migration. The material studied includes literary texts and theoretical texts as well as life-writing. You are encouraged to consider how these texts reflect on the colonial experience and the construction of a narrative of its aftermath. The School of English is a large and thriving department but we take great care in ensuring that it is a supportive environment in which to be a student. From the moment you arrive you are an integral part of a scholarly community of students, teachers and researchers and participate in a dialogue which seeks to push the boundaries of the subject into new fields of social and cultural inquiry. You are taught by leading international researchers and award-winning creative writers in a location steeped in literary history.
