Profile
At Southampton, English is an interdisciplinary course. You’ll see how literature connects with areas such as film, science, performance and politics. You can study everything from medieval travellers’ tales to modern fictions of globalisation.
English at Southampton is a degree where studying the rich history and flourishing present of literature opens out into explorations of history, politics, science, and visual media. This provides the critical skills necessary to interpret cultures from the past and shape those of tomorrow.
Our modules allow you to focus on literary genres and specific periods of literary history, with a wide choice of modules informed by the research interests of our academic staff including
- literature and the environment
- queer theory and fiction
- experimental performance poetry
- Arthurian legends across media
- Contemporary women’s fiction
- Creative Writing
- Writing the Holocaust
Your studies will include critical analysis, presentations and group work. These will help you develop your independent conceptual thinking, communication and research skills.
As part of this programme you can:
- join one of 40 student-led performing arts groups
- take part in Writers in Conversation workshops
- use the unique collection of rare books at Chawton House Library and the Parkes Library and Archives
- learn a modern language at any level
- explore experimental writing with our Entropics events
