This Master's in Contemporary Literature, Culture and Theory invites students to explore a range of topics and texts from 1945 to the present across two required and two optional modules. The first core module considers the intersection of literature, culture, and theory by focusing on changing the aesthetic and political value accorded to representation throughout each decade since 1945. The second core module focuses on literature and new areas of theory after 1999. Alongside these modules, students take a year-long module on research and writing skills in preparation for the final dissertation. Youll also get to choose two optional modules to tailor your specialism before you produce your large-scale research project.
