The combined course of English Language and Literature offers opportunities for students to develop their subject expertise by engaging creatively and critically with a variety of spoken, written and multi-modal texts. It draws on the academic field of Stylistics in order to create an integrated course which brings together literary and non-literary discourses via shared concepts about the way language choices create representations about the world around us and our experience of it. The variety of assessment styles used, such as re-creative writing, commentary writing, discursive essays and research-based investigative writing, will allow you to develop the ability to read critically, analyse, evaluate and undertake independent research, which are invaluable for both further study and future employment. Using literary and linguistic concepts you will analyse literary and non-literary texts in a range of modes and genres, in the process gaining insights into the nature of different discourses and ideas about creativity. The course includes both fiction and non-fiction texts and gives you the opportunity to develop skills as a producer and interpreter of language by creating texts yourself and critically reflecting on your own processes of production.
