English Literature builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills established at GCSE and requires a genuine love of literature. It introduces the discipline of advanced literary studies and requires the reading of all the major literary genres of poetry, prose and drama. You will be given the opportunity to read widely and independently both set texts and texts you have chosen to read for yourself. The course will equip you with the skills that you need to analyse, evaluate and compare a range of literature from Shakespeare to the present day, providing you with the skills necessary to explore how writers shape meaning in texts. You will also consider critical interpretations of key texts and reflect upon the significance of cultural and contextual influences on writers and readers. This course will prepare you for the majority of courses at university because it requires you to discuss issues, formulate opinions and contract a considered debate on the aspects of the literature studied.
