Description:

Film and English literature are two of the most significant art forms that exist today. From Shakespeare’s tragedies through to the latest Hollywood blockbusters, both subjects offer a wealth of material to explore, enjoy and analyse. The two subjects also naturally inform each other, and by studying them in tandem you’ll be able to gain a unique and broader insight into both.

On your course you’ll be able to choose from a range of optional modules in both Film and English Literature. We aim to give you a wide spectrum of topics to choose from, so you can build up a strong foundation of both subjects, before moving on to what really fascinates you. Studying film, we’ll look at a wide range of cinematic forms. From popular cinema through to challenging avant-garde works, you’ll be able to study a rich and varied selection of genres. We’ll also look at topics like national cinemas, and the work of individual filmmakers. You could look at adaptation, and how great works of literature are adapted to the big screen. Screenwriting, music and performance are all also part of the curriculum.
