BA (Hons) English Literature University of Salford

Program Description

Over the course of three years, you will delve into the world of words, studying literature through the lens of diverse theoretical perspectives including Marxism, feminism, and ecocriticism. You will critically analyse literature from a wide range of genres – from Elizabethan and Jacobean drama, to Irish literature, and contemporary poetry. If you are looking for a course with an interdisciplinary focus, studying English Literature at Salford means that you will also have the chance to choose from modules which specialise in language, film adaptation, and creative writing, giving you the opportunity to tailor your studies to the areas of literature that interest you most. You will also become part of The Northern School of Writing at Salford, a community of students, writers and researchers bringing together students from across our artistic disciplines working to enrich lives with literature and support independent publishers. You can follow our #EnglishatSalford Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts, which are led by our English teaching staff; here, you can find out how we tell our story through English Literature, English Language, Creative Writing, and Drama.
