The BA (Hons) English and History, provides you with both subject-specific knowledge and the additional intellectual enrichment that comes from an inter-disciplinary approach. English and History complement one another - history provides a vital framework for understanding literary texts in their contexts while the written word provides a substantial part of the material with which historians work. This course is built upon the strong philosophy of encouraging appreciation of the contemporary relevance of both subjects. English on this course is designed to represent literature from as wide a range of periods, cultural contexts and global varieties as possible from classical tragedy through to postmodern parody. It balances poetry, prose and drama. The History on this course is designed to develop your understanding of historical processes through the study of a range of periods and geographical contexts. Content spans the early modern period to the present and embraces three identifiable strands: British Social and Cultural History; Family and Community History; and Comparative European and Imperial History. Over the course of study, you experience key varieties of history with their own distinctive focus, theoretical underpinning and methodological vogues.
