BA (Hons) English Literature and Criminology

UPDATED 20160623 10:31:09

English Literature English Literature combines theoretical study of different genres from poetry to drama to fiction. It offers the opportunity to read widely. The aim of this intellectually challenging course is to develop a sophisticated understanding and interpretation of the relationship between the text and its historical and cultural context. Texts are drawn from broad historical periods and cultural settings. The course will develop advanced and progressive evaluative skills of current critical arguments through lectures, seminars, collaborative work and independent study. Year one will start with interdisciplinary and thematic textual analysis through an introduction to narrative, poetry and literary theory such as Marxism and Feminism. Year Two will include a selection of more specialised modules such as Shakespeare, the 18th century novel, Victorian and contemporary literature as well as a dissertation. Criminology The Bachelor of Science programme in Criminology focuses on the study of criminal behaviour, society's response to it and how crime is related to other social issues in wider society. Criminological theories will help further an understanding of why individuals deviate from social norms and engage in criminal behaviour. In addition, students will explore the criminal justice system as well as policies aimed at controlling criminality and evaluate the effectiveness of these. Studying critical issues such as globalisation, green and state crime will enable students to critically engage with the field of criminology in current society and analyse how we as a global society deal with the ever changing aspects of criminality. Research methods will enhance students' knowledge of varying ways we can research crime and criminality to gain a deeper understanding and wider picture of the problem.
