As a dual honours student you'll take half your modules in the School of English and half in the Department of History. The many optional modules mean you can design your degree around your individual interests.
The study of history and English language or literary cultures (including theatre, film and creative writing) as part of a dual degree provides you with a complementary set of skills to comprehend and elucidate the literary qualities of historical texts (ambiguity, style, figurative language), the historical context of literary texts, as well as the developments that contributed to the evolution of the English Language. English and History are mutually supportive subjects, providing distinct but corresponding methodologies for a deep understanding and rigorous analysis of the processes of historical change, and the cultures that reflect, and encourage, that change. |
