English and History BA
The disciplines of English and History are almost inseparable. Events throughout history have influenced the shape of language and literature around it from the all-consuming cataclysm of total war to the hushed intrigues of the English court. The English and History BA brings together these two naturally complementary subjects by grouping modules in such a way that they support and enrich each other.
This course will help you to understand how writers have been inspired by historic events, how they have represented them and how to read between the lines of fact and fiction to extract the truth of history.
In your first and second year you will divide your time equally between English and History modules. You third year offers you the chance to specialise more in the area that interests you the most. You will have the opportunity to study a vast range of English and History modules from the Middle Ages to the present day.
You will explore English Literature and History in every period, a feature which makes graduates from our course remarkable for the breadth of their knowledge. A variety of option modules will allow you to add a deeper understanding of those subjects that you find most fascinating.
