Coventry University’s English Literature course offers you the opportunity to study literature of all periods from the Medieval to the present day.this course is designed for students with a passion for literature who want to further develop their knowledge of the major genres and periods of English literature, as well as explore anglophone writing and literature in translation from around the world.* Analyse the gothic, fantasy and speculative fictions, African-American literature, anglophone world literatures, and literatures of the American West. * Discover a wide range of novels, plays and poetry from the ancient to the contemporary, and from the local (the Midlands in the UK) to the global.
Key course benefits* There is a focus on your application of new and cutting-edge theories and ways to analyse texts. Such examples include posthumanism, ecocriticism and critical race theory. This is to help you generate new insights of your own, building on literary history and the interpretations of others. At Coventry, we want to inspire you to keep learning even after graduation.* Transferable skills are embedded in the course through innovative assessment methods. We move beyond the traditional essay and presentation formats to include digital and multimedia projects.* You will develop a dynamic online presence through the creation of an individual website, which will allow you to present prospective employers with an online portfolio of degree-level work.* You will have the opportunity to join a range of societies which aim to develop your interest in literature, film, and theatre, as well as promoting social events*.*For further information please check the course page on the Coventry University website
